The Recovery Companion

Deeper step work. Daily recovery.

A private workspace for sponsees and sponsors in any fellowship: guided daily practices, a journal that stays yours, careful ways to share one entry with your sponsor, plus a sponsorship course and a Big Book study companion.

Enter the prototype Try a Nightly Review first

New here? See membership: $9.99 a month or $89 a year. Prototype sign-in: there are no real accounts yet. Everything you write stays in this browser on this device.

Private by default

Only you can read your journal. Sharing one entry never opens the rest.

Share on purpose

Choose the person, choose the answers, see exactly what goes, then send it yourself.

For sponsors too

A six-lesson course on sponsorship and a private organizer for agreed assignments.

The Recovery Companion is an independent educational and organizational resource. It doesn’t represent any fellowship, replace meetings or human sponsorship, or set out one right way to work a program. Membership pays for tools and original content, never for recovery itself.

Welcome, {{ displayName }}

A gentle heads-up: email and text messages can show up in lock-screen notifications, on shared devices and in synced accounts. Share sensitive details only where you feel safe.

Study companion

Big Book Companion

Read each chapter in your own copy of Alcoholics Anonymous, then use these original summaries, questions and exercises. Members of other fellowships often read along with their own focus in mind.

Summaries are our own words. We don’t reproduce the book’s text. This companion isn’t affiliated with or approved by Alcoholics Anonymous World Services.

Sponsor Workspace

This is a private organizer for you. Your sponsees can’t see it, and it’s stored only on this device. Shared assignments that a sponsee can see and secure sharing between accounts need a server, which isn’t built yet.

Membership pays for tools, organization and original educational content. It doesn’t buy sponsorship or recovery. A sponsor never needs a membership to receive something you share, and the steps, prayers and promises on the public site stay free.

You don’t have to fix today. Just the next hour.

Hard days happen to everyone in recovery. Pick one small thing below. Reaching out to a real person is almost always the best first step.

If you might hurt yourself or you’re in danger, call or text 988 in the US, or your local emergency number, right now.

One small thing

Breathe slowly

In for four, hold for four, out for six. Five rounds.

Check H.A.L.T.

Hungry, angry, lonely or tired? Tend to that one first.

Get to a meeting

In person or online. Use your fellowship’s meeting finder.

Say the Serenity Prayer

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference.
