Maia helps moms track feeds, monitor growth, and maintain their emotional wellbeing through a thoughtfully designed app that adapts between day and night. The app offers tracking while maintaining a focused, calm experience that's mindful of nurturing bonding
I'm Thor, maker of Maia. After conversations with nursing mothers and diving deep into research, we discovered something concerning: while tracking is for many mothers crucial for breastfeeding confidence, many existing apps were actually creating stress and anxiety during precious feeding moments.
This insight led us to reimagine what a breastfeeding companion could be. Maia combines essential tracking with emotional support in an experience that feels more like a nurturing friend than a clinical tool. Some key features we're proud of:
- Adaptive interface that dims and simplifies at night
- Smart insights without overwhelming data collection
- Daily affirmations and mindfulness prompts
- Complete privacy with iCloud-only storage
- No registration required - just download and start tracking
What sets Maia apart is our focus on protecting the mother-baby bond. Recent research shows that intensive app use during feeding can impact bonding quality, so we've carefully designed every feature to support mothers while staying in the background.
I'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback, especially from parents who've experienced the challenges of breastfeeding. What features do you find most valuable in supporting new mothers?
Thank you for checking out Maia! Feel free to reach out for free offer codes 🙏
Maia is the ultimate companion for moms! Thoughtfully designed to track feeds, monitor growth, and support emotional well-being, it adapts seamlessly between day and night. Its calm, focused experience fosters bonding while making tracking effortless. A beautiful blend of care and technology! 🌸🤱
Good job on doing all the necessary market research Thor, I guess the most important thing is always to go to the end user to make sure that the project will actually satisfy them!!
I'm not too much of a pro when it comes to this topic although I can imagine that the scheduling is vital given the alternate sleeping schedule babies tend to be on!!
I like the fact there's no registration, can really separate those who use it frequently vs. those who are trying it out!!
This is a blender for new mothers! Breastfeeding tracking has been simplified along with that, mothers have also been cared for, which reflects the thought put into this. Good job! 👏
Congrats @thooor! I love the idea, this could be very helpful, especially for first time moms. I really appreciate the tracking and suggestion to change side while breastfeeding bc it's so important and often it's a "trick" that only few know. Would you consider adding a feature for white noise, nature sounds or calming music to help the baby rest after the meal? I know many parents get it wrong by using random lullabies. Or something like a personalised experience for moms of twins?
This idea can be helpful for many young mothers out there. I think on PH there is a gap when it comes to medical/health-care products and think these should be promoted more as it can improve the quality of health. :-)
For me, it is unique. Wish you good luck! :)
