The questions we get most.
Still stuck? Everyone on the waitlist gets a direct line to us — we read every reply.
Do I really never have to sort anything?
That's the whole idea. You capture; the model classifies. When it's genuinely unsure it files its best guess and asks you one plain question — but there's no folder to pick, no tag to apply, and no rules to maintain.
What if it files something in the wrong place?
Tap the row and move it in one gesture — Sift learns from the correction. Misfiles are rare, and nothing is ever lost: everything lives on one Timeline you can search regardless of category.
Does it understand natural speech?
Yes — speak the way you actually speak, casual phrasing and accents included. Amounts in your currency, everyday date phrasing like "next Tuesday," and names are all parsed natively.
Will Sift send me notifications?
Never the kind that ask. No streak reminders, no "come back" nudges, no guilt. If something is genuinely time-sensitive — a task due this morning — it surfaces quietly at the top of your Timeline instead of buzzing your phone.
Who can see what I capture?
Only you. Your captures are yours; we don't sell data or train public models on your private thoughts. Content is sent to the AI only to classify it, then it belongs to your account.
Can I get my data out?
Always. It's your memory, not our moat — nothing holds your history hostage.
How much does Sift cost?
Sift is free during early access. Pricing is coming soon, and we'll share plans and prices before anything costs money.
When does Sift launch, and on what?
We're in private beta now, rolling out to the waitlist in waves, Android first. Join the list and you'll get early access plus an extended free run before any paid plans begin.
Is there an iPhone version?
Android is first. iOS is on the roadmap — join the waitlist and pick your platform, and we'll email you when your version is ready.
