Question 1

Is my data private?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. All message analysis happens locally on your Mac. Your iMessage data never leaves your device, and we never see your conversations. We can't read your messages even if we wanted to.

Question 2

How does relationship scoring work?

Accepted Answer

Tend analyzes conversation patterns including message frequency, recency, and balance (who initiates more). It combines these signals into a simple health score that helps you identify which friendships need attention.

Question 3

What makes this different from reminders?

Accepted Answer

Manual reminders require you to know who to set them for and when. Tend automatically identifies relationships that are cooling off before you realize it, and suggests when to reach out based on your natural conversation patterns with each person.
