The Weekly Chronicle

The Weekly Chronicle is an AI-generated recap of your week, presented as a digital book. It gathers data from across your entire Terra archive — habits completed, moods logged, workouts, places visited, journal entries — and synthesises them into a narrative you can read and then seal.

How it works

At the end of each week, Terra generates a Chronicle for you. When it's ready, a prompt appears on your dashboard asking if you want to read it now. Tap Read Now to open the book, or Later to dismiss the prompt until next time.

The Chronicle is a short read — a few pages that flip from cover to reflection. Once you've read it, you seal the week, which archives the Chronicle permanently in your history.

What's inside

Each Chronicle contains:

  • Cover page — a headline and subheading that capture the tone of the week, with a date range
  • Stats page — one headline metric (e.g., total workouts, days with a Radiant mood) and a set of supporting stats with animated counters
  • Chapter pages — one per life domain, each with a short narrative, a data highlight (e.g., "5 habits completed"), and a category icon
  • Reflection page — a closing sentence or two on the week as a whole, followed by the Seal the Week button

Tones

Each Chronicle has a tone that shapes how the writing reads:

ToneWhat it signals
TriumphantA strong, high-output week
ReflectiveA quieter, more introspective week
AdventurousA week with travel, exploration, or new experiences
CreativeA week with heavy journal, media, or creative output
BalancedA steady week across multiple domains

Sealing vs. skipping

Seal the week — finishes the Chronicle and archives it. You can always revisit past Chronicles from the Chronicle section.

Skip — dismisses the current Chronicle without reading it through. It won't re-prompt in the same session, but the Chronicle stays available to read later.

Why read it

The Chronicle turns a week of data entries into a narrative moment. It's the difference between having a log and having a story. Most weeks look more meaningful in hindsight than they felt day-to-day — the Chronicle makes that visible.
