From Research Excellence to Real-World Impact

Prior to launching breathing.ai, our founder Hannes Bend developed the first adaptive heart rate biofeedback Virtual Reality experience in collaboration with neuroscientists, computer scientists, psychology researchers and creatives at the University of Oregon. The team won an award for their work in Wellbeing Computing from Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence at Stanford. Breathing.ai’s founder also developed the first breath biofeedback experience in Virtual Reality during a residency at Thoughtworks. We have received three patents for the innovative bio-adaptive technologies we are building. We are also partnered with research labs at top universities like Northeastern University.
