Guided Exercise

Names the pattern, not just the fight

How it works

Built for two minds, not one chat.

FAQ

Start alone. Work together.

Can I use exercises alone?

Yes. Solo exercises help one partner reflect privately. Couple exercises bring both partners into the same room. Some exercises work either way.

What happens if my partner is not ready?

You can start with solo work. CouplesGPT can still help you name your side clearly so the shared conversation is easier when your partner joins.

Are exercises forced into every chat?

No. They are most useful after a moment has been understood. CouplesGPT suggests them selectively, and users can also start them directly.
