Now in Closed Beta

Regulate first.
Then optimize.

Rize is a nervous system-first wellness app. Breathwork, journaling, meditation — and a guide that meets you exactly where you are, without the overwhelm.

A different kind of wellness app

Most apps add to the noise. Rize is the space between.

Optimization culture has convinced us to track, hack, and push harder. But growth doesn't happen in the doing — it happens in the integration. Rize creates the conditions for that.

Lumina
Your guide
I've been feeling completely overwhelmed lately. Like I can't catch my breath.
That sounds exhausting. Before we do anything else — let's take one breath together. Slow inhale through the nose for four counts. I'll let you know when to release.
Okay. That actually helped a little.
Good. Your nervous system just shifted, even slightly. That's real. What would feel supportive right now — a short body scan, or just staying here and talking?

Meet Lumina

A guide that actually listens

Lumina is the heart of Rize. Not a chatbot, not a content feed — a guide that responds to where you actually are, not where you think you should be.

Whether you have two minutes or twenty, Lumina meets you there. And it never makes you feel bad for showing up late.

Breathwork

Guided breathing patterns — from a quick 2-minute reset to extended sessions — rooted in nervous system science.

Who Rize is for

For anyone who's tired of trying harder

  • You're ambitious and driven, but you're running on empty
  • You've tried other apps and they made you feel like you were doing it wrong
  • You know you need to slow down, but you don't know where to start
  • You want something that works with your life, not against it
  • You're in a hard season and you just need somewhere soft to land
  • You're doing okay — and you want to do this sustainably
I built Rize because I needed it. Every app I tried either burned me out further or made me feel guilty for not showing up perfectly. There had to be a better way.

Common questions

Answers to what you're wondering

During the closed beta, you get full access to explore everything Rize has to offer. After beta, Rize will offer a free tier with core features, and a paid tier at $14.99/month or $99.99/year for voice features and full guide access. Beta users get a permanently locked-in founding member rate.

Rize is coming to iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play). We're in a private beta right now — join the list above and I'll personally send you an invite.

Absolutely. Your journals, sessions, and conversations with Lumina are yours. We are privacy-first by design and will never sell your data.

Most apps are built around streaks, scores, and optimization — which creates its own kind of pressure. Rize is built around your nervous system first. There are no red X's for missed days, no leaderboards, no guilt. Just gentle, consistent support wherever you're starting from.

We'd love to hear from you. Reach us at hello@rizeapp.ca — especially if you have feedback from the beta.
