A grief companion
It's late somewhere. We're here.
Whatever this moment needs, it's here.
Grief doesn't hold still. Some moments call for talking, some for remembering, some just for getting through the next hour, and the hardest ones come when no one else is awake. WithYou meets whichever moment you're in, free, for as long as you need.
Free. No account needed. Start where you are.
Three kinds of grief
Someone died. Someone is dying. A life you knew is gone.
All three are grief. Most grief apps only know how to talk about the first one. WithYou was built for all three, because they are not the same experience and they do not need the same support.
After a loss
They died, and now every ordinary day has a hole in it. WithYou is a place to talk about them, keep what you remember, and get through the nights that get long.
While someone is still here
You are grieving someone who is still alive. That is real grief, and it starts long before anyone dies.
A life you knew
Not everyone's grief has a funeral. It counts here too, whether it's a marriage, an identity, or a life you cannot get back.
You do not have to know which one you are in. There is a path for that too.
Referring families from a hospice or funeral home? See how that works.
What's here
Choose what feels manageable.
Grief doesn't only arrive as a wave. It arrives on ordinary days, in the places a shared life used to be. Come for one thing, or just to sit for a minute.
Talk it through
Say whatever is present: memories, anger, guilt, the logistics no one warned you about. You will be heard, not fixed.
Keep their memory
Gentle prompts help you hold on to the small things. What their laugh sounded like. What they taught you. Saved, safe, yours.
Support for today
Grounding for the overwhelming waves, and permission slips for the rest. It's okay to laugh. It's okay to be angry.
A few examples of what people save:
The way he'd laugh at his own joke before he even got to the punchline.
Coffee before 7am. Same mug, every single morning. I still reach for it.
"You worry too much. Go eat something." I hear it more now than I did before.
Your memories stay yours. WithYou helps you remember without pretending to become them.
And when you are ready
Grief can come with you. It does not have to drive.
Some days you need somewhere to put the weight. Other days you need one small way through an ordinary task, or to ask for what you actually need, or to notice a moment of relief without guilt. WithYou has small, guided practices for whichever one today is, one at a time, whenever you want them.
Naming a wave when it hits. Getting into a morning that feels different now. Holding love and dread in the same breath. Letting a good moment be good, without guilt.
Why WithYou exists
Presence is unconditional. Practice is optional.
WithYou was built by people who believe one rule shouldn't be broken. The support you reach for in the hardest moments will always remain free. The guided practice for rebuilding daily life is the one thing we ask you to pay for, and only when you're ready.
WithYou stays with you
WithYou does not recreate the person you lost. It stays with the person who is grieving.
Your memories, your relationship, and what that person meant to you can still have a place here. But WithYou will not pretend to speak as them or create new conversations in their voice.
