How it works

Built around how habits form.

A cue in the right place, a habit you actually do, and progress that keeps itself.

Cue. Do. Keep.

  1. 01 · Cue

    Aura cues the habit where it happens.

    It sits in the same spot every day and shows the habit that's due. Tie it to a moment you already have: after coffee, before lunch.

  2. 02 · Do

    You do it. Aura notices.

    Lift your bottle, mug or glass and put it back. Aura senses what you place on it and logs the habit. For habits with nothing to lift, you confirm in the app.

  3. 03 · Keep

    Your progress keeps itself.

    Every day you do it counts. On average a habit takes 66 days to feel automatic. Missed a day? Pick it up tomorrow.

Your phone can remind you.
Aura is where the habit happens.

One more notification? Or a cue in the right place?

Can't my phone do that?

It can remind you. That's not the same as a habit.

In a study of habit apps, phone reminders helped people repeat a task, but cues tied to an everyday moment did more to make it automatic (Stawarz and colleagues, 2015).

Aura is that cue: on the desk, in the same place, right beside the bottle or mug you already use.

Every habit.
One clear picture.

The FROST web app shows your habits, your day and your streak.

Straight answers.

Which habits can Aura help with?

Any habit you set up in the FROST app: water, breaks, stretching, focus blocks, medicine, reading, a call home. Packs give you a ready-made set to start from.

How does Aura know I did it?

Aura senses what you place on it: a bottle, a mug or a glass. Lift it and put it back, and the habit is logged. For habits with nothing to lift, like a stretch, you confirm in the app.

What works today, and what's coming?

Habit cues on Aura's screen, logging when you lift and put back your bottle, mug or glass, and the web app are the heart of Aura. Focus sessions and breathing cues on the display are planned before mass production.

Does it work with my bottle?

Yes. Aura works with the bottle, tumbler, mug or glass you already own. No special bottle needed.

Do I need my phone?

No. The cue appears on Aura's screen, on your desk. The web app is there to set habits up and see your history.

How long does a habit take to stick?

It varies a lot from person to person. In one well-known study, it took 66 days on average, with a range of 18 to 254 days. Missing a single day didn't undo it. More in the science of habits.

When does it ship?

Indiegogo's current estimate is December 2026 to February 2027. Crowdfunding timelines can change, and we'll post updates on the campaign page.

Is Aura a medical device?

No. It's a habit partner for your desk, not a medical product. For medicine, follow your doctor's instructions.

Can I cancel my pledge?

Yes, before the campaign ends. See the refund policy on Indiegogo.
