How AI Journal Coaching Works

When you submit a journal entry, our AI system analyzes your writing to provide personalized insights and coaching feedback.

What the AI Analyzes

The AI examines your entry for:

  • Sentiment: The overall emotional tone of your writing
  • Keywords: Important words and phrases with emotional weight
  • Themes: Recurring topics or concerns in your reflection

What You Receive

After submitting, you'll see:

1. Sentiment Score

A score from -1 to +1 indicating emotional tone:

  • Positive (+0.3 to +1): Happiness, excitement, optimism
  • Neutral (-0.3 to +0.3): Balanced or factual tone
  • Negative (-1 to -0.3): Sadness, frustration, concern

2. Extracted Keywords

3-5 key words or phrases that carry emotional significance in your entry.

3. AI Coaching Reflections

2-3 personalized insights based on what you wrote. These are designed to:

  • Demonstrate understanding of your perspective
  • Provide supportive, thoughtful feedback
  • Help you gain new insights about your experiences

Mood vs Sentiment Comparison

The system compares:

  • Your self-reported mood (the emoji you selected)
  • The AI-detected sentiment (from your writing)

This comparison helps you develop emotional awareness by seeing how your feelings align with how you express them.

Privacy & Safety

  • All journal content is encrypted
  • Entries are screened for concerning content
  • If needed, counseling resources are made available
  • Only you and authorized faculty can access your entries
