Companion Mirror
Some of the most important relationships aren't romantic.
For two adults building a close, non-romantic companionship. You each answer the same 50 questions privately; a guide explains where your expectations align, the assumptions worth saying out loud, and the conversations worth having — never who said what.
Nothing to download, nothing to install — everything here works in your browser, on any phone or computer.
The difference
It explains. It never reveals. It never assumes.
Friendship between adults has no script — and most tools quietly borrow one from romance. Companion Mirror doesn't. It never assumes romance, sex, exclusivity, living together, shared money, caregiving, or family involvement. Your companionship is whatever the two of you say it is.
What it will never say
One of you is more invested in this friendship.
They said they wouldn't lend you money.
Your friendship compatibility is 81%.
No quoting. No attributing. No score, no verdict on whether to continue. And a skipped question is unknown — never disagreement.
What it says instead
You appear aligned on how much time you each hope to share. You may mean different things by “being there” for each other — your answers do not yet establish how that plays out when life gets busy.
One assumption may be worth saying out loud: how each of you expects the other to fit alongside families, partners, and older friendships.
Evidence from both of you, or it isn't said.
How it works
Three reflections. Both of you, or nothing.
A report is only written when both of you have reached its milestone — never from one person's answers.
Companion First Look — free, at 10
You each answer the first ten questions free. Then: where your hopes appear to align, one thing you may mean differently, one conversation worth having next, and what is still too early to know.
Companion Check-in — at 25
Aligned expectations, where your meanings may differ, assumptions worth saying out loud, conversations worth having, and what remains unknown.
Complete Companion Reflection — at 50
The full picture: where your hopes align, where expectations differ, boundaries and other relationships, practical life — and what the evidence does not establish.
The questions
Fifty questions, five chapters, both of you.
Purpose and readiness, time and shared life, communication and support, boundaries and other relationships, practical life and future. A few examples:
What kind of close, non-romantic companionship are you hoping to build right now?
How often would you ideally like to see each other in person?
When something is bothering you, how do you prefer to bring it up?
How involved would you want to be with each other's families and friends?
What would you want this companionship to look like five years from now?
What would make you feel taken for granted in this companionship?
Every question is optional, and the more personal ones are marked so you can skip them or come back later.
One price
One payment, for the pair.

Our promise
Your companionship is whatever the two of you say it is.
It assumes nothing
Not romance, not exclusivity, not living together, not shared money, not caregiving, not family. If your answers never bring a subject up, it does not exist here.
Both of you consent, personally
Each of you reads and activates your own agreement before the guide reads a word. One of you can never consent for the other.
Silence is not an answer
A skipped question means unknown — never disagreement, never avoidance. The guide says “there is not enough information” instead of guessing.
It never reveals or decides
No quoting, no attribution, no score, no verdict on whether to continue. Guidance, never judgement.
What is a Connection?
- One reply from your guide — one turn of conversation beyond the three reports
- 50 are included with your purchase, shared between you — they never expire
- More whenever you want them: 20 for $5, or 50 for $10 — one-time, never a subscription
- Answering questions and reading your reports are never metered
Q&A
Before you begin
Is this a dating product?
No — and it never assumes it is. Companion Mirror is for two adults building a close, non-romantic companionship: a best friend, a chosen sibling, a travel partner, a neighbour who has become family. The guide never assumes romance, sex, exclusivity, cohabitation, shared finances, caregiving, or family involvement — unless your own answers bring a subject up, and then only exactly as you framed it.
Will the other person see my answers?
No. Neither of you ever sees the other's answers — not while answering, not afterwards. The guide reads both sides so it can understand you as a pair, but it never quotes, never paraphrases, and never says who said what — not by name, and not as “one of you”.
How much does it cost, and who pays?
$7.99, paid once, for the pair. Either of you can make the purchase; one payment unlocks everything for both. The invited person is never asked to pay separately.
What do we get for free?
You both answer the first 10 questions free — and when you have both finished them, you receive the Companion First Look, a short read on where your hopes appear to align, one thing you may each mean differently, one conversation worth having next, and what is still too early to know.
What are the three reports?
The free Companion First Look after 10 answers each; the Companion Check-in after 25 each; and the Complete Companion Reflection after all 50. Each is written once, from both of your answers together — and never until BOTH of you have reached the milestone.
What if one of us skips a question?
Then that subject is simply unknown. Every question is optional, the more personal ones are marked so you can skip or return later — and the guide never reads meaning into silence. A skipped question is never treated as disagreement.
What is a Connection?
One reply from your guide — one turn of conversation beyond the three reports. Your purchase includes 50 Connections, shared between you, and they never expire. More whenever you want them: 20 for $5, or 50 for $10 — one-time purchases, never a subscription, never automatic billing.
Does it tell us whether to stay friends?
No. No score, no verdict, no “continue” or “end”. It explains aligned expectations, meanings that differ, unspoken assumptions, and the conversations worth having. The decisions stay yours.
What happens to our answers if we drift apart?
Nothing is published, sent, or shared anywhere. It simply stops being used, and each of you can export or delete your own answers.
What if it turns into something romantic?
It happens. Dating Mirror is built for exactly that next chapter — same privacy, same rules, questions written for two people who are dating.
