Harness personal strengths and understand the drivers behind your productivity and wellbeing.
Built on a decade of research. Dlog learns your personality, standards and constraints, then recommends precise steps to increase resources, strengthen character and raise well-being.
How Dlog works.
You answer a baseline survey about your personality, character, resources, and well-being. Every journal and project you add is scored against that same survey. Then, Dlog’s AI applies regressions and structural equation modelling to map how one change drives another (e.g., habits, people or traits influencing mood, progress or resources
But it’s not just numbers. Dlog also runs a narrative analysis, tying those stats back to your own diary quotes.
So, when you ask why your mood dipped last week, Dlog can show: ‘Person X drove stress — and here’s what you wrote that day.’
Journaling in Dlog turns self-reflection into personal science. Achieve your goals with an AI coach informed by you.
Mixed Methodology
Dlog uses both narrative ↑ and ↓ quantitative analysis to optimise your well-being and resources.
“The backend of Dlog contains a model that links personality, well-being, character and resources; scores are generated by what you’ve written, as determined by ChatGPT 5 and your baseline survey. This gives a rich and vast dataset with which coach responses are informed.”
Dr J. de Borst, Dlog Developer and Scientist.
From this analysis Dlog’s Coach suggests an array of highly personalised and context aware recommendations, that you can take into consideration when maximising your productivity and well-being.
Keeping you on track
The four rings guide Dlog as it analyses your journals to see if you’re on track.
The four rings are Dlog’s anchor for both narrative analysis and quants analysis.
The survey that you take when you start using the coach spans the four rings and acts as your baseline. Future journals and projects are scored against the baseline. Regressions and structural equation modelling are used to identify the factors in your life that drive changes in your productivity and wellbeing.
All guidance provided by Dlog’s Coach is based on both sentiment analysis of your Dlog Journals (to give scores) and narrative analysis; to give rich context.
Universal Truths
it all starts with a goal.
Dlog puts all your productivity tools into one place. Integrating goals, projects, journals and reminders into your calandar.
The secret to productivity and well-being is setting ourselves challenges that are neither too easy nor too simple for our abilities.
Journals and Projects are organised by goal. Ranging from short term to life goals. Dlog makes sure you don’t miss a beat.
Guided Journaling
Reflect and understand yourself on a deeper level.
Work through the 4 constructs, as you understand yourself and reflect.
The benefits of journaling are well documented. Dlog serves to enhance these benefits with its aesthetic interface and unique AI model. Delivering a journaling experience that is intuitive and in line with the modern needs of our technological societies.
Build Character, Complete Projects
Projects designed to achieve your goals.
Dlog makes organising project notes intuitive and simple with it’s goal centric system.
On the Dlog home screen you can select from a project or journal. Project entries are linked to your calander and each entry is assigned to a project file. Every project has its own reminders list to keep you on track.
In the project manager you can view, edit and assign projects to goals.
Guided Journaling
merging chat with personal statistics you can count on.
Dlog’s coach reveals how your personality, interacts with your character, resources and well-being. Uncovering the hidden drivers behind your productivity and well-being.
Coach has access to your journals and projects, and uses mixed methods analysis to gather insight into your life patterns.
Ask coach about your relationships, work habits, why your feeling stressed, your goals, or simply to review your week. Coach answers with your baseline in mind so that every response is personal to you and deeply contextualised.
Do something
Coach suggests an array of highly personalised and context aware recommendations, that you can take into consideration when maximising your productivity and well-being.
The coach is action oriented, and will suggest goals, nudges/reminders or projects using contextual data in relation to the 4 rings.
Your Reality
Expore visualizers with data about you.
Your language is more than just data.
When you journal in Dlog your words aren’t just saved, they’re organised into themes derived from the Four Rings (Personality, Character, Resources, Well-Being). This process of thematic analysis turns raw text into a view of your life narrative.
Dlog brings you back to the moment – through your own words.
Dlog provides a birds-eye view of your life patterns.
Your words appear where you need them. In weekly reviews and life reports, when a trend appears, Dlog links that trend to the original journal and project quotes that explain it, so that your insights are grounded in you.
Your numbers signal life patterns.
Discover the hidden factors driving your life across the Four Rings (Personality, Resources, Character, Well-Being).
Everyone’s Productivity and Well-Being is unique, that’s why generic insight isn’t insight at all. Dlog understands your context through the four rings and then scores your projects and journals against the same variables. Each entry receives sentiment scores that are compared to your baseline survey, showing where you are progressing or regressing, and why.
Trends and relationships between variables are displayed in time-series charts and scatter plots with regression lines – so you can see what drives the changes in your Productivity and Well-Being over time.
Understand What Drives Your Well-Being
How does extraversion (Personality) react with your Well-Being?
For your eyes only
A study of you, for you
Dlog produces a PhD grade article using mixed methods about you; just for your eyes.
Combining both thematic narrative analysis as well as regression and structured equation model analysis (see the Dlog Model below), the Dlog will produce a comprehensive academic article to help you understand your reality.
Narrative analysis is linked closely to the SEM model; i.e., themes are derived from the four constructs; and initial axial coding is grouped into constructs that are recognisable from the 4 Rings framework. The result is a rich and deeply insightful analysis that has significantly more depth than a simple LLM analysis; no AI on its own can compete with this human centric model and narrative analysis, no matter how much memory or parameters it may contain.
Proprietary Model
How personality and character drive well-being and income
The Dlog model is the backbone of the quantitative and qualitative analysis.
Dlog’s private AI model is based on our lead scientist’s PhD and bolstered by decades of research into Productivity and Well-Being, mapping your life across the four constructs – Personality, Character, Resources and Well-Being.
When you first use the coach, you answer a baseline survey of the four constructs, so that Dlog knows where you have been over the past year. As you journal and work on projects, your entries are scored against the same baseline survey so that you can see if you are above or below your norm in any of the four rings.
From there, Dlog’s AI suggests next steps that you can choose from in order to maximise your personal Productivity and Well-Being.
Through regular, guided journaling and accountable projects, Dlog helps you achieve your goals with an AI coach informed by your personal data analysed through the Dlog Model.
Regressions and structural equation modelling (SEM) are then used to trace directed paths between constructs, showing how changes in one area drives changes in another (e.g., habits, people or traits influencing mood, progress or resources). Dlog focuses on the most informative positive and negative paths, and includes a Quality of Well-Being dimension to distinguish hollow wins from integrated fulfilment.
Numbers are never shown without context. Trends and relationships are paired with diary quotes, bringing you back to the moment and grounding the insights in you.
