Question 1

What is an archetype?

Accepted Answer

An archetype is a universal pattern of behavior — a recurring character that shows up across stories, cultures, and people. ArcMirror works with twelve: Hero, Sage, Explorer, Rebel, Magician, Lover, Jester, Caregiver, Ruler, Creator, Innocent, and Everyman. Each represents a fundamental motivation and way of engaging with the world.

Question 2

How does ArcMirror work?

Accepted Answer

ArcMirror uses intuitive image selection and reflective questions to identify which archetypes are leading and which are missing. In about 5 minutes, you receive a personalized narrative about the patterns shaping your choices, relationships, and goals — powered by AI and grounded in a 12-archetype self-discovery framework.

Question 3

Is Archetype Mirror a therapy app?

Accepted Answer

No. Archetype Mirror is a self-reflection tool, not a clinical assessment or therapy substitute. It helps you notice patterns in your behavior and make more conscious choices. If you need mental health support, please contact a qualified professional.

Question 4

Is my data private?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Archetype Mirror uses a zero-PII (Personally Identifiable Information) architecture. No names, emails, or device IDs are sent to AI providers. Your reflection data stays in your account and is never sold or shared.
