Train with UPRIGHT

The UPRIGHT is a compact, ergonomic marvel that helps you achieve a healthy, confident posture to last you all day, any day. All you have to do is wear the device for less than 1 hour per day by following a straightforward training schedule.

The UPRIGHT mobile app generates a personalized training program customized to you, guiding you on how much time you need to train with the device each day. It provides real-time feedback, as well as posture analytics & statistics, that makes tracking your progress simple, intuitive and fun. Through the app's short, easy-to-follow instructional videos and the device's Bluetooth pairing capabilities, UPRIGHT is a leading example of how smart technology can help improve your health.

About the Startup

Describe your product in 3 words.

Simple, smart, discreet

How did you come up with the idea for this product?

The idea came from my mother. She is a horrible sloucher and suffers from back pain as a result. I wanted to develop something discreet, simple, and intuitive to help her fix her posture in a natural and effective way.

What makes your product special?

Our main advantage over any other posture devices is the unique personalized training program which allows to train for a limited amount of time per day as opposed to seeing results only by wearing the device all day long. UPRIGHT's unprecedented accuracy, which stems from its dual sensor and advanced algorithm, is what allows for seeing results in such short time frames.

What has been the best part of your startup experience?

When we realized how quickly UPRIGHT can improve your posture, we were amazed. It was a long and challenging process, however when we received positive feedback from our beta users, it was all worth it. The accuracy of UPRIGHT allowed for users to improve their posture within 2-3 weeks! We were told that our best bet would be to improve posture within a few months. That was definitely one of our best moments creating UPRIGHT.
