AI-Powered Insights

Shifting Habits offers AI-powered insights to help you understand patterns in your data. AI features are usage-limited based on your membership tier and are only triggered when you explicitly request them:

• •User-Initiated: AI analysis only occurs when you click a button to request it (e.g., "Generate AI Insights" or "Get AI Suggestions")
• •Data Anonymization: Personal identifiers (emails, phone numbers, sensitive patterns) are filtered out before your data is sent to Google Gemini for analysis
• •Usage Limits: Each membership tier has a limited number of AI calls per 12-week cycle, preventing excessive data processing
• •Not Using AI: If you prefer not to use AI features, simply don't click the AI-related buttons. No data will be sent to external AI services unless you explicitly request analysis
