About

One tap to log how you feel, and a firefly that glows with you. Hotaru turns scattered tired-days into patterns you can actually act on. Five levels, one thumb, three seconds. No forms, no journaling homework. Just an honest answer to "how much is in the tank?" Energy dips after lunch? Tag it. Your own words become reusable triggers: bad sleep, long meeting, skipped break. Hotaru starts connecting them.
