Both are grounded in attachment theory, but they point in different directions. Attached is a solo healing companion—an AI coach, journaling, and meditations for understanding your own patterns. Attune points outward, at the relationship: how to actually communicate across your and your partner's styles.
Attached is inward work—journaling, meditations, and an AI coach to heal your own attachment, brilliant whether you're single or partnered. Attune is relational work—the words, decoding, and repair skills for the person you're actually with.
