What Heyday was
Heyday, previously known as Journal, was designed as a personal knowledge assistant for researchers, creators, and other knowledge workers. Its browser extension and connected sources built a searchable library of material a user had already read or discussed.
The standalone Heyday product is no longer active. BetterUp acquired the company in 2024, and Heyday co-founder Sam DeBrule said the team would integrate its technology into BetterUp’s coaching platform.

Availability
Why this listing is historical
Heyday is no longer sold as a standalone product, so there is no current subscription price. Historical third-party listings show that it was a paid product with a free trial, but old amounts should not be treated as current pricing.
- The standalone product is no longer available to new customers.
- Its automatic capture model required access to browsing activity and connected work content, making privacy review important.
- Historical prices and integrations are no longer useful for a current buying decision.
