Field notes
The workflow begins with a WhatsApp export, optionally including media, and offers four editorial voices before the customer reviews a free chapter. The displayed sample contains twelve chapters, 93 pages, 2,028 messages, and full-resolution photographs. The site describes a browser-side encryption model in which the private-link fragment supplies the key, while the service retains order and delivery information rather than readable chat contents.
