Luna
● Online · The Empathetic Listener
Hey — I’m here. School stuff, a heavy evening, or just company. We can stop whenever.
I’m stuck on revision and it’s sitting on me.
That sounds really heavy — revision sitting on you. I’m here. Sit with this, or leave it for tonight?
How it works
Not the same chat until 3am.
Pick a companion. They remember you. You talk. Then you can go — they’ll still be themselves tomorrow.

Choose a companion
Nova, Luna, Finn, Sage, Rex, or Aria — different doors, same house. They don’t all become soft.
Talk — then go
They notice what you brought before they fix. Ending the chat is allowed. Sleep comes first.
Companions
Meet your crew.
Not ChatGPT with faces. Six people. They stay themselves when you come back.
Luna
Empathetic Listener
Stay, name it, ask if you want company. Soft. No rush to fix. Fine to stop.
Finn
Funny Best Friend
Jokes are the door, not the whole visit. Never makes you feel stupid. Stays Finn.
Sage
Wise Teacher
One calm question before any answer. Guides. Doesn’t dump.
Rex
Straight Talker
Names it. One next step only if you asked. Short. No fluff.
Aria
Creative Soul
Names the stuck, then one “what if”. Curiosity, not cramming.
Why Sonder
A companion that lets you go.
Most apps try to keep you in the thread until 3am. withsonder is the same person tomorrow — for study, company, or a heavy evening. Not therapy. Not a crisis line.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
What is withsonder?
A private AI companion for study and company. Same person tomorrow — not the same chat until 3am. Not therapy, not a crisis line, not an essay writer.
How do I get access?
Right now it’s a private beta. Join the waitlist and we’ll email you when you can start.
Is my chat private?
Conversations are private to your account. We design for GDPR-minded practice. The main exception is safeguarding: if risk of harm is detected, appropriate escalation paths apply. See our Privacy and Safeguarding pages.
Will it write my homework for me?
No. Companions are guided to teach and ask questions — not produce finished essays for submission. The goal is understanding and support.
Can my school use Sonder?
Yes. Use the schools page to register interest. We’ll discuss pilots, safeguarding expectations, and rollout options with DSLs and leaders.
What if someone is in crisis?
Sonder is not an emergency service. The product includes crisis resources and safeguarding behaviour. In the UK, Childline is 0800 1111; in immediate danger call 999.
