What is Break in Motion?
Break in Motion is a Mac app that reminds you to stand, stretch, and move — and gradually increases your standing goals over time. Designed for remote workers, it helps you build healthier habits without disrupting your workflow.
Problem
Remote workers often struggle to maintain consistent break habits, relying on manual timers or irregular reminders which fail to sustain long-term health benefits.
Solution
A Mac app that uses AI to remind users to stand, stretch, and move with personalized, incremental goals. Example: Automatically adjusts standing time from 5 to 30 minutes daily based on user progress.
Customers
Remote workers, freelancers, and tech professionals aged 25-45 who spend long hours at desks and seek passive health habit-building tools.
Unique Features
Adaptive goal-setting algorithm that increases standing duration gradually, integrates natively with macOS for non-disruptive reminders, and tracks streaks to incentivize consistency.
