Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An Android app that analyzes exported WhatsApp conversations, turning message patterns and dated excerpts into a nine-chapter relationship report.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-29 issue.

For: People analyzing WhatsApp relationship or group chats
Worth noticing: Its “marinade” measure excludes reply gaps over 24 hours, which the page says avoids treating ordinary absences as evidence.

Field notes

The landing page shows clickable sample reports for a situationship, a worn-out couple, and a friend group. One sample is labeled 14,280 messages across 11 months and pairs message-share and reply-time statistics with timestamped excerpts; the stated “marinade” measure excludes gaps longer than 24 hours. Hector is offered as an Android v1.0 APK, while the page says conversations are encrypted and handled on European cloud servers.
