A companion that helps you slow down, not speed up.
一個陪你慢下來，而不是催你往前衝的夥伴。
The Slow Talk Companion carries our in-person practice into everyday life: a few lines of journaling, a breathing pause, and one thoughtful question at a time. An early prototype, built on the Claude API, is open for testing. 慢聊夥伴把我們在課堂上的練習帶進日常：寫幾行心情、停下來呼吸、一次只問一個好問題。以 Claude API 打造的試用版已經開放。

Evening reflection
晚上 · 5 minutesOur goal: a quiet place to set your feelings down
我們的目標：一個可以把情緒放下來的安靜角落Everyone has low days. Many people don't need treatment; they need somewhere to say it out loud, without being judged or rushed. We want to give healthy adults going through a rough patch something like a tree hole, a confession room, or a wise old friend, available any hour, powered by AI and shaped by Vincent's years of coaching practice. 每個人都有低潮的時候。很多人需要的不是治療，而是一個可以說出來、不被評斷、不被催促的地方。我們想給身體健康、正經歷一段不順的成年人，一個像樹洞、像告解室、也像智慧老人的對象，任何時間都在。它由 AI 驅動，對話方式則來自育誠多年的教練實務。
Daily reflection · 每日慢聊反思
One small question a day, five minutes to sort out how you feel.每天一個小問題，五分鐘整理心情。
Tree hole · 樹洞
Just say it. It listens, reflects, and doesn't give advice unless asked.只想說出來。它安靜聽、回應你的感受，不主動給建議。
Confession room · 告解室
For guilt or regret you can't tell anyone. No religion, no judgment.說不出口的愧疚或後悔。沒有宗教色彩，不審判。
Wise elder · 智慧老人
A warm, humorous elder who offers a fresh angle, then hands the choice back to you.溫和幽默的長者，陪你換個角度，再把選擇權交還給你。
Coming soon · 即將推出：Guided practices from Vincent's upcoming book, small techniques the companion can lead step by step online.育誠即將出版的新書中有許多小技巧，未來會由慢聊夥伴在線上一步步帶領練習。
Who it's for · 適合誰
Adults 18+ who are physically healthy, have no psychiatric diagnosis, and are not currently receiving psychiatric care, but are feeling low, stuck or upset for now.18 歲以上、身體健康、沒有精神疾病診斷、目前沒有接受身心科治療，只是暫時情緒低落、卡住或不開心的人。
Who it's not for · 不適合誰
Anyone with a psychiatric diagnosis or in ongoing treatment. We don't want an AI conversation to interrupt or replace their medical care, so the prototype asks people to confirm this before starting and points others to their care team and the 1925 helpline.有精神疾病診斷或正在接受治療的人。我們不希望 AI 對話打亂或取代他們的醫療照顧，所以試用版在開始前會請使用者確認，並引導不符合的人回到醫療團隊或 1925 安心專線。
Where we're heading: three layers of support
我們的藍圖：三層支持-
Now · 現在
1. Be heard · 接住當下的情緒
Anyone who arrives can set down what they're feeling, right away. For most people who are healthy but unhappy, being heard is enough to feel lighter. This is what the Claude-powered prototype does today.每個走進來的人，當下的情緒都能先被接住。對多數身體健康、只是不快樂的人來說，被好好聽見就足以讓心輕一點。這是目前以 Claude 打造的試用版在做的事。

2. Understand what would help · 了解需要哪一種支持
With the person's consent, the conversation helps them see what kind of support might fit: self-reflection practice, a course or workshop, or a conversation with a professional. It guides, it does not diagnose, and a human reviews the approach.在當事人同意下，從對話中幫他看清楚哪一種支持比較適合：自我覺察練習、課程與工作坊，或是找專業人員聊聊。這是引導，不是診斷，並由真人把關流程。

Later · 未來
3. Connect to the right care · 轉介合適的專業服務
For people who need more than a listening ear, we connect them with licensed medical and counselling professionals in Taiwan, so no one is left with only an AI.對需要更多協助的人，轉介到台灣合格的醫療與心理諮商專業服務，讓沒有人只能獨自面對 AI。
為什麼用 Claude 打造慢聊夥伴Why we chose Claude
慢聊夥伴是一次新的嘗試：讓 AI 先接住來訪者當下的情緒。有些心情來得很晚，可能是半夜，也可能是一個人的時候，身邊不一定有人可以說。我們希望在那個時刻，至少有一個溫和、不評斷的對象，願意聽你慢慢講完。 The Slow Talk Companion is an experiment: letting AI be the first to hold a visitor's feelings in the moment. Hard feelings often arrive late at night or when we're alone, with no one nearby to talk to. In those moments, we want there to be at least one gentle, non-judging presence willing to hear you out.
為了做到這件事，我們選擇了 Anthropic 開發的 Claude。Claude 是目前相當先進的 AI 模型之一，回應自然、細膩，語氣貼近真人對話，也很重視安全與界線。對一個以「先聽、再說」為核心的品牌來說，AI 怎麼說話，和它說了什麼一樣重要，這是我們採用 Claude 的主要原因。 To do this, we chose Claude, made by Anthropic. Claude is among today's most advanced AI models, known for natural, nuanced replies that feel close to human conversation, and for its strong focus on safety and boundaries. For a brand built on "listen first", how an AI speaks matters as much as what it says. That is the main reason we use Claude.
同時我們也想誠實說明：再像真人，Claude 仍然是 AI。它不是育誠本人，也不是醫師或心理師；它的回覆由 AI 即時產生，可能不完美。它的角色是陪伴與承接，而不是取代專業協助。 We also want to be honest: however human it sounds, Claude is still an AI. It isn't Vincent, a doctor or a psychologist. Its replies are generated in real time and may not be perfect. Its role is to keep you company and hold space, not to replace professional help.
我們重視 Claude 的四件事Four things that matter to us
先聽，再回應
它會先回應你說了什麼、你的感受，而不是急著給建議。我們的練習從「聽」開始，AI 也一樣。It reflects back what you said and how you feel before offering anything. Our practice starts with listening, and so does the AI.
語氣自然、貼近人
回覆讀起來像一位溫和的朋友，而不是制式的客服或說明書。Replies read like a gentle friend, not a scripted help desk or a manual.
守得住界線
只做陪伴與反思，不做診斷、不談藥物；遇到安全疑慮時，會優先引導你找真人協助。It stays with reflection, never diagnoses or discusses medication, and points you to human help first when safety is a concern.
聽得懂中文與英文
我們的使用者以繁體中文書寫，常常夾雜英文。兩種語言的細微語氣，它都接得住。Our users write in Traditional Chinese, often mixed with English. It catches the nuance in both.
What it will not do
它不會做的事- It is an education and self-reflection tool, not therapy or medical care. It will not diagnose, name conditions, or comment on medication.這是自我覺察與學習工具，不是治療或醫療行為，不做診斷、不談病名、不評論藥物。
- Before chatting, users confirm they are 18+, have no psychiatric diagnosis and are not in psychiatric care.開始對話前，使用者需確認年滿 18 歲、沒有精神疾病診斷、未接受身心科治療。
- Self-harm language triggers a safety response with Taiwan helplines (1925, 1995, 1980, 119/110) instead of ordinary chat.偵測到自我傷害相關字眼時，會優先提供台灣求助專線，而不是繼續閒聊。
- A clear “pause / talk to a human” option is always visible. In a crisis it points people in Taiwan to the 1925 helpline.畫面上永遠有「暫停／找真人聊」的選項；遇到危機時，會引導撥打 1925 安心專線。
- No ads. The prototype does not store conversations; messages are sent to the Claude API only to generate a reply.沒有廣告。試用版不儲存對話，訊息只會傳給 Claude API 產生回覆。
