Questions and answers

Emmy is an AI assistant to talk things through with, built and hosted in Europe. She answers questions, reads the pictures and documents you give her, writes documents and tables with you, and keeps your calendar, notes and health log if you switch those on.

Health: your training, what you eat, and your body weight, body fat and age, with graphs over time. You can bring in what you already track: Apple Health’s export for weight, body fat and food, and the CSV file a training app or a food diary gives you. The file is read on your device and only those lines are saved.

Calendar: your own events, and Google, Outlook or iCloud calendars you choose to follow.

Notes: Markdown notes Emmy can search, read, write, move and delete. You can bring in a whole folder, such as an Obsidian vault, and take it out again.

A to-do list, when memory is switched on in Settings.

Health, Calendar and Notes are on from the start for a new account and hold nothing until you give them something. You switch each off in Connectors, and switching one off deletes what it kept.

Yes. Today, beside Projects and Documents, shows your day in brief: your calendar for the day, what is still on your to-do list, what you trained and ate yesterday against your target, and the last seven days in numbers. It is put together from what you keep with Emmy, so it shows only what is there.

With notifications on, the same brief arrives as one line in the morning, and on Mondays it adds how last week went. The line holds your own event titles and counts, never the words of a note or a conversation.

A skill says outright what a message is. @note saves it as a note, @gym logs training, @food logs something you ate, @weight logs a body measurement, @event puts it in your calendar, @todo adds it to your to-do list, and @search looks through what you keep.

Type @ in the message box to see them. In the same list you can pick one of your notes, documents, to-dos or projects by name, and Emmy reads that one thing for the message.

@project with a project’s name written as one word, such as @projecteulaw for a project called EU Law, puts what the message asks Emmy to keep into that project.

Its chats, its files and instructions of its own, and any of your notes, calendar events, to-dos and documents. One thing can be in several projects: it stays in your notes or calendar as well, and taking it out of a project, or deleting the project, keeps it.

Emmy can make, rename and delete projects when you ask, put things in them, and write a document into one as a file. With a project ticked under the message box, “add this to this project” means that one.

Yes. Emmy can search your notes, uploaded documents, project files, calendar and to-do list at once, by meaning as well as by word, so a question in English can find a note written in Danish.

Projects are kept apart: a project’s files are only found from a chat inside that project.

Yes. Hold the send button while you speak and let go when you are done; with an empty message box, a tap starts and stops it. Your words appear in the message box for you to read before sending.

Put a web address in your message and Emmy reads that page. Where web search is available, Emmy looks something up when an answer needs it, such as news, prices or opening hours, and lists the pages she used. The globe button makes her search for that message whatever it is.

Under Connectors you can sign Emmy into services such as Notion, Linear, TickTick, Evernote, Readwise and others, or add any service that offers an MCP server by its address. You decide per connector whether Emmy may change things there or only read.

Yes. Open emmy.chat in your phone’s browser and add it to your home screen; it then opens like an app. On an iPhone, notifications only work once it is on the home screen.

Once installed on an Android phone, Emmy is in the share menu of other apps: share a link or some text and it lands in the message box, for you to send or not. Press and hold the app’s icon for shortcuts that start a food or training log, a note or a to-do.

A photo of a meal sent with @food is logged as what is on the plate, with an estimate of each portion.

In the EU. Conversations, notes, calendar and health logs are kept in a database that is restricted to data centres in the EU, and uploaded files in storage with the same restriction.

The servers, database and storage are run by Cloudflare, an American company. What is stored stays in its data centres in the EU; a message reaches them through the Cloudflare data centre nearest to you.

Emmy uses open-source models running on European hosts, reached through a gateway in the EU. Those hosts keep nothing: your conversation is not logged by them and is not used to train any model.

Pictures are read, speech is written down and searches are prepared by models on the same kind of European host, on the same terms.

No. Not by us and not by the hosts that run the models.

It is sent to a speech model on a European host, turned into text, and kept nowhere. Only the words reach your message box, and only if you then send them.

Only what a task needs, and only to these places:

A web search sends one short search phrase to Linkup, a French search company, with nothing about who asked. It happens when you switch it on for a message with the globe, or when Emmy judges that an answer needs looking up, a few times a message at most. The phrase is written from your message and what it refers to earlier in the conversation; the conversation itself is not sent.

A web address in your message is fetched from Emmy’s server; the site sees a request, not you.

A service you connect receives what Emmy sends it on your behalf, and nothing goes to services you have not connected.

A notification travels through your browser maker’s push service, sealed so that it cannot be read on the way.

Payments are handled by Mollie, a Dutch company. A card number is typed into Mollie’s own fields and never reaches Emmy.

No. The pages load no fonts, scripts or images from other companies, and there is no analytics and no advertising. The one exception is Mollie’s card fields, loaded only when you choose to enter a card.

“Delete chat” removes a conversation together with its images and documents. Switching a connector off deletes everything it kept. “Delete my account” in Settings removes the account and all of its data.

No. Emmy does not store pages or answers on your device for offline use, so a conversation you delete is not left behind on it.

• Free Free 40k tokens a day, about 4 messages
• Emmy Plus €8 a month 160k tokens a day, about 17 messages
• Emmy Pro €20 a month 410k tokens a day, about 44 messages
• Emmy Max €50 a month 1.1M tokens a day, about 112 messages

Prices include VAT. A message count is an estimate: a long document uses more than a short question.

Each plan has an allowance per day, counted in tokens: roughly, the amount of text read and written. It starts again every day at midnight UTC. The panel above the message box shows how much of today’s and this month’s allowance is used.

No: every plan, the free one too, answers with the same model, a larger open-source model on a European host. A paid plan gives you more of it each day.

Plans are monthly subscriptions paid through Mollie. You can cancel in Settings at any time and keep what you paid for until the end of the period.

The version is shown at the bottom of Settings and on the “What’s new” page. When a newer one is out, Emmy offers to reload, so an installed app does not keep running an old version.
