MentavoHow it works
How single entries turn into a connection.
Mentavo doesn't collect data to hand it back to you as a chart. It records what you notice in everyday life anyway — and makes visible what keeps coming back.
Six steps that build on each other
- 01Check-in · Journal
You hold on to a moment.
A check-in can be a single slider. A journal entry can be two sentences. Short enough to still manage on a full day — and deeper when you want it.
- 02Context
Mentavo has more than that one moment.
The entry doesn't stand alone. Mentavo brings together what came together that day: routines, goals, goal steps, check-ins and journal entries — and shows what is missing, too.
- 03Coach
You can talk it through without explaining it all again.
There is no mode and no perspective to choose — you simply write. Mentavo can draw on relevant information from your entries rather than starting from nothing.
- 04Action
A conversation can turn into a next step.
When something comes up that you want to keep, Mentavo offers it as a card: a goal, a goal step, a routine, a journal entry or a check-in. It is only created once you confirm.
- 05Today · Discover
What you talked about can come back later.
A subject from a conversation can feed into what Mentavo suggests on a later day. And when the same combination occurs often enough, it appears as a pattern in your Mentavo Map — with the comparison values and the number of days behind it.
- 06Analytics
Over longer stretches, change becomes visible.
Single days fluctuate. Only across weeks does it show what has actually shifted — in mood, journaling, activity, goals and routines.
Why it gets better over time
Early on, Mentavo deliberately shows very little. A connection resting on three days isn't one — and Mentavo doesn't pretend otherwise.
Only once enough real days are recorded do comparison periods exist that a pattern could be read from at all. That's why the Mentavo Map grows with you instead of being complete on day one.
What Mentavo explicitly does not do
Mentavo does not prove causes.
A recognised connection means two things often occur together. Which of them comes from the other, Mentavo doesn't say — because your entries can't tell it that.
An experiment is an observation period.
Across 7 or 14 days, Mentavo gathers further evidence about a pattern. That sharpens the picture, but it is not proof of effect.
Mentavo does not replace therapy.
Mentavo is a tool for self-observation and everyday orientation — not medical or psychotherapeutic treatment, and not a diagnosis. If you're worried about your health, please speak to a doctor or a qualified mental health professional.
There is no Mentavo score.
Mentavo doesn't rate you with a number and shows no “strength” for a pattern. Only values that genuinely follow from your entries are displayed.
