YouAre – Personalized AI Affirmation & Mental Wellness App
Founder & Lead Engineer
YouAre is an AI-powered affirmation and mental wellness app that delivers deeply personalized affirmations, guided by user behavior, goals, and emotional patterns. Built with FastAPI, Qdrant, and Gemini AI, it helps users build positive habits through daily affirmations, AI conversations, and mindful tracking.
"An intelligent, adaptive affirmation platform that evolves with the user and turns mental wellness into a daily, personalized experience."
Problem
Most affirmation apps deliver generic, repetitive content that fails to adapt to the user’s emotional state, goals, or long-term growth. Users quickly disengage due to lack of personalization and meaningful progress tracking.
Solution
YouAre uses AI-driven personalization to generate dynamic affirmations based on user input, behavioral patterns, and emotional context. A vector-based memory system enables deep personalization, while scheduled delivery, AI chat, and habit tracking create a consistent self-improvement loop.
Architecture
Backend built with FastAPI and Qdrant for semantic memory and vector search. Gemini powers AI reasoning and affirmation generation. Flutter handles the cross-platform mobile UI, while Superwall manages subscriptions and paywalls. The system includes scheduled jobs for affirmation generation, push notifications, and periodic content refresh.
