Founding Participant Reflection

Thank you for spending time with been during the Founding Phase.

There are no right or wrong answers here. We're interested in your honest experience, including anything that felt helpful, unclear, uncomfortable, surprising, or different from what you expected.

Some questions will ask about your conversations with been. Others will ask about the Journal and what happened after you closed the app.

Your reflections will help shape how been develops from here.

The Journal was easy to use.

When I chose to bring a journal entry into a conversation, the transition felt natural.
The Journal encouraged me to notice my experience in my own words.
If you used the Journal, we'd love to hear more.

Life Outside the App

One of the goals of been is not simply to support conversations, but to help you return to your own life.

Please tell us about your experience.

After using been, I found it easy to return to what I was doing.
The conversations felt complete without needing to continue longer than I wanted.
I never felt that been was trying to keep me engaged unnecessarily.
Using been left me feeling more connected to my own life, rather than more connected to the app.
I found myself thinking about my own experience after closing the app.
The conversations supported my own reflection rather than replacing it.
If so, we'd love to hear about it.

Looking Back

Over the past week, you've spent time with been.

We'd love to hear about your experience in your own words.

Take your time. There are no right or wrong answers.

It doesn't have to be dramatic. It can be something small that you still remember.
