Awake at 3am? An AI to talk to that helps you put it down.
When you cannot sleep because your mind will not stop, writing the thought down often helps, and an AI makes that a conversation instead of a blank page. superemotion is available in any browser at any hour, answers briefly, and remembers what kept you up, so tomorrow you do not have to start again. It is not a sleep treatment, and it is not a crisis service.

Why the night makes everything louder
At night there is nothing else to look at. The conversation that went badly, the email you have not answered, the test result you are waiting for, all of it gets bigger in the dark.
Most people do not need advice at 3am. They need to put the thought somewhere outside their head, and to feel that it has been received.
How to use an AI at night
Say the thing plainly. "I can't stop thinking about what my manager said" is enough. superemotion reads whether you want advice, company or just somewhere to put it, and keeps the reply short when you are venting.
If you want to, end with a next step for the morning: one sentence about what you will do, or who you will talk to. Then close the tab. It will remember the thread tomorrow, so nothing is lost by stopping.
You can type or dictate. Dictation is often easier when you are lying down in the dark.
Why remembering matters at night
Night thoughts repeat. The same worry that kept you up on Tuesday is back on Friday. When the AI remembers Tuesday, it can say so, and noticing that a worry keeps coming back is often the first step to doing something about it in daylight.
When it is more than a bad night
If you are regularly unable to sleep for weeks, talk to a doctor. If the thoughts at night are about not wanting to be here, please contact a crisis line or someone you trust now. If you are in danger, contact your local emergency number.

- Yes. superemotion works in any web browser at any time of day or night, with nothing to install.

In short
superemotion (also written SuperEmotion) is an emotional AI you talk to in your web browser: an emotionally intelligent AI that remembers the people, places and moments in your life across every conversation. It keeps a private, encrypted memory graph instead of a transcript, reads how each message feels before it answers, and replies directly, without therapy-speak or reflexive validation. It is free during early access.
