Capacity
“My cup is low this week. It's not you.”
The problem
Relationships rarely break in one moment. They erode through patterns we don't see in ourselves: one person pulls away, the other pushes harder, and the cycle builds. Most tools show up after the damage. Barometer shows up before.
How it works
Both people opt in around a shared goal.
A short intake on how you each learned to handle conflict growing up, your communication style, and a basic personality read.
Invite three people who know you well to answer a few private questions. They never see results.
Pick your rhythm (usually weekly). Five quick check-in points, one shared readout, and a gentle next step.
Two signals that make it work
“My cup is low this week. It's not you.”
“This keeps happening and I want you to know. I'm not keeping score and I'm not leaving.”
Repair tools
When the pressure drops, Barometer gives you the next small move: start gently, name what you appreciate, own your part, or take a real pause with a promise to come back. The structured pause gives one person space and the other a time to reconnect.
Tracks
Built with input from a psychiatrist with 30 years of practice, and designed around well-established research on how relationships strain and repair.
Founding pilot
We're starting small. Tell us a little about you.
No. Barometer is a relationship maintenance tool, not therapy or medical care. If you are in crisis, call or text 988.
No. You choose what to share; private flags stay private until you share them.
Answers are pooled and anonymous; the people you invite never see your results.
We're opening a small founding pilot first. Join the waitlist to be considered.
