Personal-first journaling
Your life,
block by block
Capture your days, weeks, and years in a journal built for durability, privacy, and true data ownership. No lock-in. No compromise.
Features
Everything you need, nothing you don't
Built with intention. Every feature serves the goal of long-term, private, flexible journaling.
Multiple journals
Keep separate journals for different parts of your life — travel, work, personal reflections. Each with its own privacy defaults.
Date-based entries
Every entry is anchored to a date. Browse your history as a timeline, filter by date range, or jump to any specific day.
Photo attachments
Attach multiple images to any entry. Photos are stored separately from your text for reliable, long-term archival.
Tags and filtering
Organise entries with tags. Filter across journals to find exactly what you're looking for, fast.
Privacy controls
Set journal-wide defaults and override per entry. Private, unlisted, or public — you decide who sees what.
Data you own
Your data lives in PostgreSQL and standard object storage. Export, back up, or migrate whenever you want. No lock-in.
Built for decades
DaysWeeksYears is architected around PostgreSQL and S3-compatible storage — proven technologies that will outlast any trend. Your journal from today should be readable in fifty years.
Private by default
Every journal starts private. Visibility is explicit, never assumed. Your entries, your photos, your memories — they stay yours unless you choose otherwise.
No lock-in
Standard formats, open storage, full export. If you want to leave, take everything with you. We built DaysWeeksYears because other platforms don't respect this principle.
