Seven steps

AI couples therapy with Pragma, step by step

From the first tap to a habit you keep. Each step shows the real app.

Step 01

Start free, then pair with your partner

Begin the seven-day trial on your own, on iPhone, Android or the web. Share your eight-character invite code when your partner is ready. Pairing links two private accounts into one shared practice.

  • Only one of you needs to start
  • Each partner keeps a private account
  • Pair now or later

Step 02

Open Today: tonight on one screen

Each evening, Today shows tonight's session, your shared streak and this week's exercise. One button starts the session. Nothing else asks for your attention.

  • Tonight's fifteen-minute session
  • A streak you share with your partner
  • This week's exercise

Step 03

Choose voice or chat, and your coach

Speak out loud or type, whichever suits tonight. Then pick Juno, Aria or Kai. All three are AI coaches with different styles, and they share one memory of your relationship.

  • Juno, Connection Coach: warm and empathetic
  • Aria, Clarity Coach: structured, uses CBT
  • Kai, Momentum Coach: solution-focused

Step 04

Talk it through for fifteen minutes

The coach asks how you are arriving, listens, and helps you name what is really going on. It uses methods couples therapists use, from Gottman, EFT and CBT. Every session ends on one thing to try tonight.

  • About fifteen minutes
  • One question at a time
  • Ends on one small, concrete step

Step 05

Your Journal keeps a private record

After each session, the Journal seals the conversation with a short reflection and what surfaced. It is yours alone. Pragma remembers the patterns, so the next session starts where this one ended.

  • Sealed sessions, word for word
  • What surfaced, in a short summary
  • Memories you can clear at any time

Step 06

Do one exercise a week, together

The Practice gives you one guided program at a time, seven to ten days long. Each day is a short task with a tip, from five to twenty-five minutes. Your partner sees your progress, never your words.

  • 13 guided programs
  • Seven to ten days each
  • Five to twenty-five minutes a day

Step 07

Watch it add up in the Blueprint

The Blueprint counts your conversations, minutes together and exercise days. It adds a short AI-generated read of what your sessions keep surfacing. Progress you can point to, week by week.

  • Conversations and minutes together
  • Follow-through on exercises
  • An AI read of recurring patterns

  2. 2 to 9 minSay what is going on

    You talk. The coach listens and asks one question at a time.

    Together you find the need under the argument.

  4. 13 to 15 minOne thing to try

Two ways to talk

Voice or chat, the same AI couples coach

Speak when you want to be heard. Type when the house is asleep. The coaching is the same.

Voice

A real conversation, out loud. The coach replies in real time, in one of four voices.

Chat

Quiet and considered. Type at your own pace, in a thread you can come back to.

Private by design

What your partner sees in AI couples therapy, and what stays yours

Pairing shares the effort, not the words. Each of you has a private space to be honest.

Your partner sees

  • That you completed tonight's session
  • Your shared streak
  • Your progress in this week's exercise

Never shown

  • Your transcripts and raw words
  • Your Journal and reflections
  • What your coach remembers about you

Questions

How AI couples therapy works: common questions

How does AI couples therapy work in Pragma?

Each partner has a private fifteen-minute session a day with an AI coach, by voice or chat. Sessions end on one thing to try. Short exercise programs and the Blueprint help the work add up over time.

Is Pragma real couples therapy?

No. Pragma is AI relationship coaching, built on methods couples therapists use. It is not a licensed therapist and it does not diagnose or treat. For a crisis, see our crisis resources.

Do both partners need to use the app?

No. One partner can start alone and invite the other later with an eight-character code. The practice works best when both of you take part.

Can my partner read what I say?

No. Your sessions and Journal are private to you. A paired partner sees that you completed a session. They also see your progress in this week's exercise, never your words.

How long does it take each day?

About fifteen minutes for the session. A task from The Practice adds five to twenty-five minutes on the days you do it.

Which devices and languages does Pragma support?

Pragma runs on iPhone, Android and the web. Sessions work in English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese and Arabic.
