Thanks @garrytan for hunting us! Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I’m Chris, one of the co-founders of Shimmer (#1 ADHD Coaching Platform). I’m super excited to share what we’ve been cooking up for our next evolution: AI-powered coaching tools! ✨ Quick refresher on Shimmer: In 2022, I was diagnosed with ADHD. They gave me Adderall and told me to come back when I wanted more/less, but not much in the way of real-world strategies or support. That’s when we created Shimmer 1.0—a coaching platform pairing you with expert ADHD coaches who truly “get it.” We’ve since powered over 45,000+ coaching sessions, improving the experience every step of the way based on feedback from our amazing members. Now, we’re introducing Shimmer 2.0: AI-enhanced features woven directly into your coaching journey: - AI Summaries of Coaching Sessions: Never forget an “aha” moment - Contextual, Action-Oriented Insights & Support: Get Insights on what’s working and not working between sessions, so you can course correct - Smart Search Across Your History: Quickly recall past breakthroughs, see recurring themes, and find what works best for you These AI features are only available with 1:1 coaching. We believe the heart of transformation lies in human connection—your coach remains the star player. Our new AI tools simply *amplify* that experience, making your coaching journey more accessible, insightful, and action-driven. We’d love for the Product Hunt community to try it out and let us know what you think! ❤️ --- ❗ A few disclaimers, Shimmer: - is NOT a medical service or a substitute for therapy/medical advice - is for adults with ADHD who want practical, goal-oriented changes in their life - doesn’t require a formal diagnosis (though if you’re curious, check out the WHO quiz here: https://www.shimmer.care/adhd-ov...) --- 💰 On Pricing & Packages - Starting at $58/week (or $40/week for your 1st month for Product Hunt!) - All packages include full app access + support services Feel free to drop any questions below, and thanks again for checking us out!

Congrats on the launch, folks! So many people around have ADHD symptoms, it's great there are such great tools are available to help. Will share it with my friends and might give it a try myself.
Christal Wang
@igordebatur Love this! We'd love to see you in the community. Say hi in the Monday morning body doubling sessions if you come through (I host the Monday morning ones!)
Kris P Nguyen
Shimmer and coach Candace have helped me immensely in my journey to improve my mental health, focus, and interpersonal relationships. I highly recommend everyone take a look and connect with a Shimmer coach for your personal growth.
Christal Wang
@krispnguyen Aw, thank you so much Kris. You're the best and so proud of the progress you've made with Shimmer!

The thing that excites me most about this launch is that we didn’t just add AI to have AI or generate silly stuff. It’s designed from the ground up to be human-centered, especially for us ADHDers. Just knowing that the AI is taking notes helps me stay present and engaged during sessions. It frees me up to fully engage in the conversation without worrying about capturing every detail. The smart search feature is also super handy for revisiting past sessions and finding awesome advice from my sessions and insights I might have missed. I'm incredibly lucky to work with a team that genuinely cares about creating meaningful tools for our community. ✨
Christal Wang
@oryanmcentire You're the best! We're lucky we have you leading the charge on the growth side of things. To an awesome 2025 and beyond!

As a psych student I have seen a lot of other CBT-based interventions (therapy/coaching) for ADHD, but saw that your methodology is different. Can you share more about how you compare vs traditional methods??
Vikram Sreedhar
Thank you so much @garrytan for hunting us! Hi everyone! I'm Vikram, one of the co-founders and CTO of Shimmer. 😊 We’ve been working tirelessly on our brand-new AI-powered coaching features, and I’m thrilled to finally share them with you on Product Hunt. It’s been a blast collaborating with our members—merging cutting-edge tech with real human insight to create an even more supportive and dynamic coaching experience. Our goal has always been to serve the ADHD community in the best way possible, and these new features help capture every “aha” moment, give you actionable insights between sessions, and let you instantly recall your entire coaching history. It’s been amazing to see our beta testers rediscover breakthroughs they’d forgotten and stay on track, even when life gets busy. Thanks so much for checking out our 2.0 launch, and as always, we’d love your feedback. We appreciate your support more than you know, and can’t wait to hear what you think!
Marie Ng
As someone with ADHD, I love this. Especially the fact that AI is being used to amplify, not fully take over the value of a human coach and human connection. Go Shimmer team!!! ✨
Christal Wang
@threehourcoffee Thanks, Marie! Grateful to get to build alongside amazing founders like you in the ADHD space. And yes, we feel so strongly about the power of human compassion & accountability in the ADHD coaching journey, and are working hard to protect this. Appreciate your comment!
Xenia Angevin
@threehourcoffee thank you for your words of appreciation. Despite the proliferation of AI-only tools, there has been no research into the long-term effects of human-centered support withdrawal from neurodivergent adults. These are essential in ensuring that the solutions offered are safe and do not harm. Therefore, we stand by our human-centered offering with a dash of AI.
Anthony Lin
Hey all! I'm one of the engineers that brought these features to life and it's been amazing to see the real impact they've had for both our members and coaches! The most exciting part is that this is just the start, and these features will only get better and better over time. Really appreciate everyone for checking out the launch and ANY feedback would be greatly appreciated!
Vikram Sreedhar
@anthony_lin you crushed it with this launch! So exciting to see all your hard work pay off!
Christal Wang
@anthony_lin You're the best! Thanks for all the hard work and late nights. Just reading through some of the member comments in here, it's making a huge positive impact on lives!
Kritika Singhania
as someone diagnosed with ADHD a year ago, super intrigued! but the price point is a lot for someone like me who comes from a country like india. maybe try having more inclusive pricing options for people from other regions of the world?
Xenia Angevin
@kritika_singhania thank you Kritika, this is a fair point! Having worked in India in the past, I can just imagine how the pace of life and societal expectations make life even more complex for someone with ADHD. We will definitely consider your suggestion.
Kritika Singhania
@xenia_angevin lovely. thanks for taking this positively =)
Brian Von Ancken
Such a great product and team solving a real need!
Christal Wang
@bvonancken Grateful to get to work in the same space, making the world a more well place!
Matthew DiMarcantonio
This is very needed product — especially for founders imo. Excited to see it!
Vikram Sreedhar
@mattdimarc Thanks so much Matthew really appreciate it!
Christal Wang
@mattdimarc Yes, we have so many founders at Shimmer. There's actually a few coaches who pretty much exclusively coach founders, so there's definitely a profile!
Gabe Moronta
Congrats on the launch, just shared this with a friend! :)
Christal Wang
@mogabr Oh, amazing! Hopefully we'll see them in the community. Tell them to come through during Monday morning body doubling sessions to say hi!
Jason Curry
Wow, I love this. Most folks don't realize ADHD is a performance impairment, and with these actionable coaching tools you provide it's no surprise your efficacy is 83%. And the intersession engagement and insights is so important as most progress from therapy / coaching, especially with ADHD, happens not in sessions but between them. I have an adjacent product for ADHD myself, but I'm first and foremost someone who's had ADHD since I was a kid, and seeing such a great, well thought out product like Shimmer makes me so deeply happy thinking of how many people with ADHD it will help. Excellent, excellent work!
Christal Wang
@jasonacurry Thank you Jason, this is so kind of you! Do let us know if we can ever support your product/work!
Jason Curry
@christal thank you, I appreciate that!
Vrinda Gupta
Incredibly bright, passionate, and mission driven team! Can vouch for Shimmer and the important work they're doing.
Christal Wang
@vrinda_gupta1 Thank you, Vrinda! You're the best!
Maddie Wang
I have ADHD and I LOVE what you do with the AI~!!! I am a HOE for coaching and love what y'all do. Coaching has saved me in so many instances. Gave me motivation when my life was dark. Helped me get unstuck way faster.
Christal Wang
@maddie_wang LOL I love this, thanks for the support!
Jaron Soh
Looks great! Do you need an ADHD diagnosis to get started? Is it possible to get started while on the waitlist/in-between appointments for a formal diagnosis?
O'Ryan McEntire
@jaron_soh1 No diagnosis needed. Especially because we know how hard it can be to get a formal diagnosis.
Christal Wang
@jaron_soh1 No, you do not need a diagnosis to start! Coaching is actually for anyone who identifies with ADHD-like symptoms since the methodology addresses executive function impairments. We often have folks who don't have formal diagnoses who come in!
Jaron Soh
@christal good to know, thanks!
