We reshape how media is consumed. With JournalOwl, people begin thinking for themselves first by formulating an evidence-backed argument, earning badges, and then productively discussing counter-viewpoints with well-informed people.

We pioneered video clip journaling. News, history, politics, or educational videos can be clipped and formed into thought-provoking journeys. Deeply explore complex topics by answering a series of questions, quiz yourself, and discuss with other critical thinkers.

We make it easy to organize online book clubs and study groups. With thousands of public domain eBooks to choose from, including all 66 Books of the Holy Bible, you can setup a virtual book club today. Securely meet with your private club with our Zoom integration.

Recent research indicates that expressive writing reduces intrusive and avoidant thoughts about negative events, while improving working memory.

Research published by APA’s Journal of Experimental Psychology has also discovered that the improvements from expressive writing free up our cognitive resources for other mental activities, including our ability to cope more effectively with stress.

JournalOwl’s pre-launch beta group of Journalers reported a 70% reduction in stress & anxiety associated with overcoming a bad habit. According to participants, the day-to-day journal prompting tailored to the target habit created structure, reduced anxiety, and allowed freedom of expression.
