Philosophy, one short reading a day.

thinkr gives you a passage worth thinking about each morning, a short guided course to work through, and conversations with the thinkers themselves, written by AI in the style of each philosopher.

What it does

• A daily reading. One short passage from Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, Epictetus and others — enough to think about, short enough to finish.
• A daily challenge. Five quick questions that apply the day's idea to something real, rather than leaving it abstract.
• A guided course. 151 short lessons in one clear order, from Socrates and the Stoics to Nietzsche. The first unit, The Examined Life, is free; Pro opens the rest.
• Ask the thinkers. Read sample conversations with ten thinkers for free (new in version 1.5; version 1.4.2 gives one free question instead). With Pro, ask any of 44 your own question and get an AI-written reply in the style of that thinker, not their own words.
• Watch them argue (Pro). Set two philosophers against each other on a question you care about and read the disagreement unfold.
• Convene a council (Pro). Put one question to three thinkers at once and see where they agree, where they split, and a practice for the week.
• Go further with Pro. Thinkers can remember what you have told them, question you Socratically or stress-test your argument, and write you a weekly letter in response to your reflections.
• A library. Public-domain texts and quotes you can browse and save. Free users get a preview; Pro opens the complete library.

Who it is for

People who have tried to read Meditations twice and stalled both times. thinkr is built for a few minutes a day rather than a reading project — the point is to leave with one idea you can use, not to finish a book.

Common questions

Is thinkr free? It is free to download, and some of it is free to keep: the first course unit (three lessons), the daily challenge, the daily thought, sample conversations with ten thinkers (from version 1.5; 1.4.2 includes one free question to a thinker), the first passage of each source text, the first guided path and a library preview. Asking the thinkers your own questions needs a Pro subscription, which also opens the full 151-lesson course, every path and source, the complete library, councils, debates, thinker memory and weekly letters. There is no free trial.

Do I need to know any philosophy? No. Every passage comes with plain-English context, and you can ask follow-up questions when something does not land.

Is it only Stoicism? Stoicism is the centre of gravity, but the library and the thinkers span existentialism, ancient Greek philosophy, Eastern traditions and modern thought.
