Common questions

A few things people ask before choosing a plan.

What does the free trial include?

The 1-month free trial gives you full access to your chosen paid plan — Pilgrim or Companion — including every feature listed in the comparison table. At the end of the month, your plan continues at the listed annual price unless you cancel.

Do I need a credit card to start the free trial?

No. You can start your free trial with just a Sojourner account. We'll only ask for payment details if you choose to continue past the trial.

Can I cancel my plan?

Yes, any time. You can cancel from your account settings. You'll keep access through the end of your current paid period, and you won't be charged again.

What happens to my entries if I downgrade?

Your entries always belong to you and are never deleted because of a plan change. If you downgrade to Wayfarer, you keep read access to everything you've written; some features (like adding new photos, voice notes, or extra journals) simply pause until you upgrade again.

Can I switch between Pilgrim and Companion?

Yes. You can move between Pilgrim and Companion at any time — pricing is prorated for the remainder of the year, and your entries, bookmarks, and family cast come with you.

How do AI bedtime stories work?

On the Companion plan, Sojourner can write and illustrate bedtime stories featuring your children — on both web and mobile. You add a few details (and optional reference photos) for each child, choose the length, tone, illustration style, and how many pages get a full picture, and Sojourner generates a full story you can read tonight, keep in your library, and share with grandparents through a private link if you'd like.

Will Sojourner ever use my writing to train AI?

No. Your journal is private. Sojourner doesn't sell your writing, surface it to other readers, or use it to train AI models — including the optional reflection and story features. You can export or delete your data at any time.
