Example read, from invented dreams

Your sister appeared in 7 of 24 dreams

Dreams logged Jan 12 to Mar 6

  • “My sister was teaching me to drive the old car, but we were on a beach.”Feb 11
  • “My sister handed me a key to a house we never lived in.”Mar 4

What a pattern read looks like

Only you can see your entries. An AI model reads them to find what recurs, and it only ever reads yours. We never share or sell them.

This example is built from 24 invented dreams, Jan 12 to Mar 6. Each dot is one dream, oldest first, and the underlined words are what matched. Open a line for its earlier excerpts.

How it works

  1. 1Write the dream in one blank field, the minute you wake.
  2. 2After three, Mottlemark shows who, where and what keeps returning.
  3. 3Each read quotes your entries with dates. It never interprets a dream.

Before you start

Will it tell me what my dreams mean?

No. Mottlemark shows what recurs in your own entries, with counts, dates and your own words. It never interprets a dream, and anything that reads like interpretation or symbolism is filtered out before you see it.

Who can read my entries?

Only you can see your entries. An AI model reads them to find what recurs, and it only ever reads yours. We never share or sell them.

How long does an entry take?

About a minute. There is one blank field, with no prompts, tags or moods to fill in.

When do I get my first pattern read?

After your third entry. Until then, your journal shows how many entries are left.

Do I need a password?

No. You sign up with your email address, and you can set a password later if you want one.

What does it cost?

It's free to start, and your first pattern read is included. The full history, showing the months each recurring figure appeared, when a theme first appeared and what dropped away, is $19/month.

In the example above, the phone dreams stop after Feb 1. The dog turns up in February and hasn't left. The full history shows changes like this across months.
