Good morning.
Today's session is ready.
Today's Skill
Cyclic Sighing
A breathing pattern that calms your nervous system in under 5 minutes.
Sage
You mentioned your chest felt tight yesterday. What did you notice this morning?

Three steps, every day.

A simple daily rhythm: breathe, learn, practice. Each session builds on the last. Each day, you need the app a little less.

01
Breathe
Start with a guided 5-minute breathwork session. Cyclic sighing, box breathing, vagal toning — all research-backed, all customized to where you are.
02
Learn
Interactive lessons teach you a new skill. Not lectures — reflective prompts, fill-in-the-blanks, and "teach back" moments that make the skill yours.
03
Practice
Put the skill to work with Sage, your AI companion. Talk through real scenarios. Get a daily "charge" — a micro-assignment that bridges the app to your real life.

Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.

No gamification gimmicks. No infinite scroll. Every feature exists to build your skills and your self-reliance.

Sage — Your Companion
An AI companion powered by Claude that validates, reflects, and hands agency back to you. Sage never reassures or fixes. It helps you find your own answers.
180-Day Curriculum
CBT, ERP response coaching, nervous system regulation, and mindfulness — sequenced by difficulty and backed by peer-reviewed research.
Belt Progression
Six belts from White to Black earned through skill proficiency, not calendar time. Real mastery, measured honestly.
Field Notes Journal
Capture reflections, notice patterns, and track your growth over time. Sage references your notes to make each session personally relevant.
Daily Charges
Micro-assignments that bridge the app to your real life. Practice in the world, check in next day. The skill isn't learned until it's lived.
Built-in Graduation
SteadyKit is designed to end. Over six months, the companion gently prepares you for independence. Your graduation day is a celebration, not a loss.

A companion that doesn't
need you to need it.

Most AI wellness apps want you hooked. Sage is different. It validates your experience, reflects your own wisdom back to you, and lets discomfort sit — because that's how you grow.

No empty praise. No quick fixes. No "Great job!" when you're struggling. Just honest, warm presence that builds your capacity to handle life on your own.

I keep checking if I locked the door. I went back three times today.
Sage
Three times. That sounds exhausting. What do you think the checking is trying to give you?
I guess... certainty? Like if I just check one more time I'll feel okay.
Sage
And does the feeling of "okay" last after you check?
No. It comes back in like 5 minutes.
Sage
You already know something important about how this works. What does that tell you?

Earn your belt.

Six belts. Earned by proficiency, not time. Each one represents real skills you can use without the app.

White
Foundation
Yellow
Awareness
Orange
Application
Green
Integration
Blue
Mastery
Black
Independence

Research you can trust.

Every skill in SteadyKit is grounded in peer-reviewed clinical research. No pseudoscience. No wellness fluff.

Balban et al., 2023
Cyclic Sighing
5 minutes of cyclic sighing reduced anxiety and improved mood more effectively than mindfulness meditation in a controlled trial.
Foa & Kozak, 1986
ERP Response Coaching
Exposure and Response Prevention is the gold-standard treatment for OCD, with response rates of 60-80% in clinical trials.
Hofmann et al., 2012
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
CBT is one of the most extensively researched forms of psychotherapy, with strong evidence for anxiety, OCD, and depression.

Simple, honest pricing.

A 6-month program with a built-in ending. When you graduate, your price drops — or you walk away with everything you learned.
