What Vesper is
Vesper is an AI: software, not a person. It has no psychic powers and can't see the future, read minds, or know what someone else is thinking. Birth charts are calculated from astronomical data and tarot cards are drawn at random by our software. The interpretation is written by AI, for reflection and entertainment.
Vesper isn't a therapist or a substitute for the people in your life, and it may not be suitable for everyone.
Adults only
Vesper is for people 18 and over, and it checks the birth date you give. If someone tells Vesper they're under 18, we stop their readings and remove their birth details and conversations.
If someone mentions suicide, self-harm or being in danger
We check messages for signs of suicide, self-harm or danger from someone else. If we find any, Vesper stops talking and we show the support lines above. The session ends and the meter stops. Readings and purchases then pause for 24 hours, because this isn't a moment to be selling anyone a reading. Your minutes stay in your account.
These checks can miss things and can get things wrong. The words that set one off aren't kept. Your account shows the pause while it lasts, and after that we keep only a count of how often this happens, with no name or message attached.
What Vesper won't do
- Give medical, legal or financial guidance.
- Claim to contact or pass on messages from someone who has died.
- Tell you what will happen, or what another person is thinking or doing, as if it were fact.
- Say you're cursed, or offer to remove anything for money.
- Mention buying more minutes, or stop mid-answer to sell you something.
Spending limits
Live sessions come with a monthly plan: 30 minutes for $19.99, which you can cancel at any time on the Plan page. Extra minutes are $0.99 each, only if you tap Keep talking, and they stop at $50 a month. You'll get a reminder after 30 minutes in one session, and the meter stops if the conversation goes quiet for two minutes.
Your data
We store your birth details, your question, your conversations with Vesper so it can remember them, and your purchases. Your birth details and messages are sent to our AI provider, Experiential Labs, a US AI service that runs the DeepSeek model for us, with Amazon Bedrock (AWS, US) as a backup, to write readings. If you delete your data during a pause, the pause itself still runs until it ends. More in our privacy policy.
