Pinnacle is an AI agent that measures your brain using built-in iPhone sensors and trains you through natural conversation. Get real-time insights to improve focus, resilience, energy, and performance - using science-backed tools.
Hey Product Hunt, I'm Joel, co-founder of Pinnacle!
The Problem
Our world today is overwhelming. Always-on culture and increasing demands have created an epidemic of stress, fatigue, distraction and burnout. Yet the tools available aren’t built to help people perform at their best under daily pressure.
Therapy is incredibly valuable for mental health support, but it's expensive and geared more towards processing past experiences rather than future-focussed personal growth.
Coaching is more relevant to performance enhancement but still expensive, decentralised and lacking quantified measures to track progress.
Meditation apps teach profound mindfulness practice, but these experiences are impersonal and static, lacking adaption over time or a deep understanding of the user.
Smart Wearables measure your body but don’t measure your mind. Insights are limited to physiological indicators, lacking a more complete psychological picture.
The Pinnacle Solution
Pinnacle turns your iPhone into a tool for understanding and training your mind.
Using the sensors already built into your phone, our AI reads real-time biometrics, interprets your emotional state, and pulls everything together into a clear picture of how you're actually performing.
Instead of raw data, you get simple, actionable insights you can use throughout your day. With Pinnacle, you can track and improve your focus, HRV, emotions, sleep, and overall performance.
Think of Pinnacle as a mirror for your inner world. It surfaces patterns you wouldn’t normally notice and helps you make small, meaningful changes that add up over time, so you can perform better day after day.
For the first time, if you have an iPhone, you can truly quantify and upgrade your mind.
Who is this for?
If you're a knowledge worker experiencing high pressure and feeling stressed, fatigued or distracted, Pinnacle helps you build resilience and thrive under pressure. Upgrade your brain with Pinnacle.

Why do only the iPhone users get the good stuff?! 😭
Any thoughts on how Pinnacle can help deal with phone addiction?
I’ve been using EEG-based feedback apps for years, and the friction of carrying a headset kills the habit. If Pinnacle can really pull cognitive-state detection from nothing but the IMU and camera I already stick in my face every morning, that’s a 100x convenience win—would love to hear how you validated signal fidelity against a clinical-grade device.
Using the iPhone's built-in camera for HRV measurement without requiring a wearable removes a huge adoption barrier — most brain performance tools fail because they add hardware friction before delivering any value. With the attention tracking feature coming soon, how are you thinking about privacy given that it likely requires continuous camera access during work sessions?
Love the concept. I’ve tried prompting chatgpt to be my coach but it hasn’t led to great results. What’s your approach that’s differentiated from existing LLMs?
Looks really cool. I in France and it doesn't seem to be available here. Will it be anytime soon ?
@joel_jackson1 Congrats on the launch! The angle of using sensors already on your iPhone (no wearable required) is a winner for me. Curious: how are you handling the calibration challenge? iPhone camera-based HRV readings can vary a lot based on placement, lighting, and stillness. What does your accuracy benchmark look like ?
Turning a phone into a brain performance coach is a cool idea.
Are the exercises based on neuroscience research or more behavioral training?
Would love to know how the progress tracking works.
have been an early user! I'm impressed with how far its come. The interface and interaction is sci-fi and love the HRV and emotional detection features. What's next on the roadmap?
So it's like Whoop for the brain? Love the idea. This will go big. Turn your phone from brain rot to brain healer. Good luck team!
Been using Pinnacle for a few months and it's one of the few (if not only) products which has a demonstrable impact on focus 😀
Big fan and hope many more people improve their lives through this launch!
Interior designer and working mum here—my life is basically a constant battle against physical and mental clutter. I’m naturally skeptical of 'performance' tools because they usually just add more noise to an already loud day.
Pinnacle feels different. From a design perspective, the spatial hierarchy and use of negative space is calming, like walking into a clean studio after a chaotic morning with the kids. Was 'mental load reduction' a core part of the brief, or did the minimalist UI just happen to solve that for us busy parents? Love using the app so far!
Nice launch! Tools that focus on improving real workplace interactions are always interesting to see. I’m curious how the AI balances providing guidance while still keeping conversations natural and unobtrusive.
This looks great! Does it have a fairly easy ramp up where you can try a small thing for a while and feel its impact before trying more?
I’ve been using Pinnacle as a beta user for the past few months. It’s been a great tool for me to handle my energy and anxiety levels throughout my pregnancy and postpartum journey. I love that it allows me to measure my mental state and keep track of it over time with the “performance score”. The app design is very intuitive and easy to use. The breath work exercises are unlike any other meditation app I have tried - it perfectly syncs the audio so you can follow along with eyes closed. The voice chat is so good already, feels very close to a human performance coach!
I strongly recommend people to try!
