A studio of private-first companions

Everything you trust an app with —
beautifully, privately yours.

Every hYYa app has a story, and every story started with a missing piece. We build the private-first, everyday tools we wished existed — crafted to simplify your life without selling your data.

Our story

More than apps. Companions you can trust.

Most apps treat you like a data point. hYYa was built on the opposite idea — that everyday tools can feel warm, calm, and genuinely on your side. We design each app to do one important job beautifully, and to keep your information yours.

Many apps, one studio, one promise: private by default, beautifully made, and free where it counts. Built to feel like a companion — not a product.

The apps

Companions for every part of your day.

Different needs, the same care. Every hYYa app carries its own palette, its own personality, and the same private-first heart.

hYYa ai is one app with two engines. hYYa Vault runs AI fully on your device — free, offline, and private. hYYa Cloud taps the world's best frontier models with a full toolkit when you want more power.

What does hYYa ink do?

It is local-first: everything is rendered on your device, it works offline, and your files stay on your device unless you run an optional bring-your-own-key AI action. Viewing is free. Explore hYYa ink →
What does hYYa Encrypted Folder do?
hYYa Encrypted Folder locks your files on your Mac behind Touch ID with real AES-256 encryption, powered by Apple's CryptoKit — not just hiding them or adding a password screen. Your files stay unreadable until you unlock them, your key is end-to-end encrypted so only you can read it, and nothing is collected. The core app is free to try, with an optional one-time Pro unlock ($19.99, no subscription). Explore hYYa Encrypted Folder →
What does hYYa Encrypted Notes do?
It keeps your notes end-to-end encrypted on iPhone, iPad and Mac using AES-256-GCM via Apple's CryptoKit, so they are unreadable to everyone but you — hYYa included. There is no account and no hYYa server: notes sync through your own iCloud Drive, and titles, folder names and dates are encrypted too, not just the text. Encryption, sync, biometric lock, import and export are free forever; a one-time purchase lifts the 15-note limit. Explore hYYa Encrypted Notes →
Are hYYa apps free?
hYYa Prayer Pal is free forever with no ads. hYYa Subscriptions Tracker is free for 5 subscriptions plus 5 AI receipt scans a month; hYYa Subscriptions Tracker Pro is a one-time US$4.99 unlock for unlimited subscriptions, and hYYa Subscriptions Tracker Pro+ (US$1.99/month) includes everything in Pro and raises scanning to 100 a month — neither is required. hYYa ink reads, exports and prints every supported format free forever; editing and the PDF tools come with a 7-day free trial, then pay once. hYYa Encrypted Folder offers real AES-256 encryption and folder styling free to try, with an optional one-time Pro unlock ($19.99, no subscription). hYYa Encrypted Notes keeps up to 15 notes free with no time limit, and encryption, sync, biometric lock, import and export are free forever — a one-time $24.99 purchase lifts the note limit, never a subscription. hYYa ai is a free download and carries both engines, so hYYa Vault runs entirely on your device at no cost, with no account. hYYa Cloud is the paid half and has exactly two doors: Cloud On-Demand, a one-off credit pack from $20 that never renews, with credits valid for 24 months and unspent credits refundable within 14 days; or Cloud Ultra, the monthly subscription at $49.99 with the largest renewing allowance and advanced models at no credit cost, saving 33% billed annually. There is no free hYYa Cloud tier and no trial. The two carry the same toolkit and differ in how you pay — Bring Your Own Key is the only Cloud Ultra exclusive.
How does hYYa protect my privacy?
Privacy is the default across every hYYa app. hYYa Prayer Pal has no ads and no tracking. hYYa Subscriptions Tracker never connects to your bank — privacy by architecture. hYYa Encrypted Folder locks your files with real AES-256 encryption and a key only you can read — there's no backdoor and nothing collected. hYYa Encrypted Notes goes further still: there is no account and no hYYa server at all — the app contains no networking code — so notes are encrypted before they touch disk and the key never reaches us, which means we cannot read or recover them. hYYa ai can run entirely on your device with hYYa Vault, and conversations never train AI models.
What platforms are hYYa apps available on?
hYYa Prayer Pal is on iOS, Android, and Apple Watch. hYYa Subscriptions Tracker is on iPhone via the App Store and Android via Google Play. hYYa ink is on iPhone, iPad and Mac via the App Store (macOS 14+, Apple Silicon & Intel; iOS/iPadOS 17+). hYYa Encrypted Folder is a native Mac, iPhone and iPad app on the App Store — one purchase covers all three (macOS 14+, Apple Silicon & Intel; iOS/iPadOS 17+). hYYa Encrypted Notes is built for iPhone, iPad and Mac. hYYa ai is on the web at hyya.ai in any browser, and there is a free Mac app on the Mac App Store that runs both engines — on-device hYYa Vault and hYYa Cloud — and needs an Apple silicon Mac running macOS 26 or later.

Companions for every part of your day. One studio.
All yours.

Pick the one that fits your day — or keep them all close. Private by default, beautifully made, and free where it counts.
