Thanks @mwseibel for hunting us!
Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I’m Chris, one of the co-founders of Shimmer (#1 ADHD Coaching Platform). I’m tremendously excited to share our biggest launch yet!
😫 Quick background on the massive adult global ADHD challenge: 350M+ adults live with ADHD in the world and most solutions that involve are either wildly unaffordable (expensive 1:1 coaching) or don’t address the core root of ADHD challenges in a personalized way (tiktok, ig, etc…)
🕰️ Quick (short) history on how we got here: Last year I was diagnosed with ADHD. I really struggled to find affordable and quality coaching and the community agreed—we amassed a waitlist, a private no-code beta, then our full mobile app launch in the the span of a few months.
🏍️ Fast forward 9 months, and we’ve had the privilege of serving over 1,200 clients in 10,000+ coaching sessions with our mobile app only. The heights our members have achieved bring me to tears each week.
To the exciting part, this is what the web app can uniquely do for our ADHD members:
👉 Allow members to go deep during onboarding: Guided vision setting & our proprietary Shimmer Mastery Assessment
👉 Set quality behavioral goals and keep them front of mind with customized photos (e.g. use a pic of your child if the goal is related to mom-ing!)
👉 Link actions to goals, and when you complete them it automatically notifies your coach to stay accountable!
👉 Get coach support & access bite-sized learning throughout the week!
We’re excited for the Product Hunt Community to check us out and let us know if you have any questions! ❤️
With love, Chris Wang

@mwseibel@christal – thank you!
As a Principal Coaching Psychologist at Shimmer and a technologist obsessed with user-centred design, I am delighted to be part of this launch.
It would be fair to say that UI/UX for most of coaching services has a lot of potential for development, and I am confident that our data, digital and technology team lead by Vikram Sreedhar laid a strong foundation to an attractive and robust interface. This makes our service even more accessible and easy to use.

Hi everyone! I'm Vikram, one of the co-founders and CTO of Shimmer. 😊
I am super excited to share a major milestone! We have officially launched our brand new Shimmer Web App to the public 🚀🔥
The core team and all of our coaches have been working tirelessly to create the best possible experience for our members, and we're thrilled to now support our ADHD Coaching platform across mobile, web, and even a few widgets! ⭐
It all started with my co-founder Chris’s ADHD diagnosis. And now, in just under 10 months, we’ve served 1000+ ADHD lives. And, we aren’t stopping there.
Please check us out and let us know what you think! We're always open to feedback and really appreciate your support with our Product Hunt launch!
Cheers,
Vikram
Hey everyone! I'm Molisha, the founder's associate at Shimmer.
I can't believe we're at this milestone already, but I'm SUPER excited for the web app & proud to be a part of this team!! Watching the launch come to life, and the amount of hard work that went into it (across the Shimmer team, our members, and the wider ADHD community), gives me goosebumps. To have so many people believe so passionately in a cause is a very special thing. To the product hunt community, this launch is just a stepping stone towards a much larger vision for good. Your love and support means the world to us! 🌎
Hi Everyone! I'm Alex, the Lead Coach and Community Manager at Shimmer!
It's been so great to watch the company develop through multiple stages in order to reach this key moment of the web launch for all! Everyone's engagement and involvement shows the importance of discussions and collaboration in the ADHD space- for there to be a place where there's meaningful conversation. So many of my clients have talked about the web version being a game changer for their journey and how this type of accessibility is what they're looking for.
I am proud to be a part of a company that listens to their clients and works to make their product the best version of itself. (I know Vik put in a TON of hours to make this happen!! Thank you so much!!)
To our clients, it's a testament to how much your voice matters!
Hello everyone! I'm Melkys, the Customer Success Specialist at Shimmer!
I'm so excited about this HUGE milestone! So much hard work has gone into this, it has been inspiring to see so many passionate human beings come together to create an amazing experience and community.
I am immensely proud to be a part of a company that truly values its users and dedicates itself to creating a remarkable space where individuals can voice their thoughts and feel genuinely heard.❤️
Very excited for the future and what's to come!!! 🥳
Hey all! 👋🏻 I’m Rennie, the designer behind the Shimmer web app, and I am SO proud to be a part of this launch! Over the last few months we’ve worked closely with our community workshopping and running little experiments to bring it all together. I hope you’ll get as much out of the platform as I have myself!
I grew up navigating the neurotypical world with undiagnosed ADHD and always thought there must be a better way to work with my tendencies rather than against them. Almost immediately after my first coaching session with Alex, I saw the value and potential for personal growth with her individualized support. I learned a great coach asks the right questions, has a wealth of knowledge, is a great listener, and offers guidance; exploring what sticks to enable lasting change—together.
During the design and research process, we heard our members speak about each of their unique experiences with Shimmer and their coaching journey. For this iteration of the web app, we wanted to really hone in on that relationship of human connection, where members can feel supported and get the guidance they need. A lot can be accomplished in just a short 15 minute session, but we found it’s what happens after the call, and between your next session to be where growth happens. With the launch of goals and more granular progress tracking our hope is to support members and provide the tools they need on their journey of growth and lasting change. We still have a bunch of features under development in our back pocket so stay posted 🥳
@maria_loleyt Hi Maria, unfortunately we currently do not offer diagnosis services. The best path for this is through your insurance or primary care provider as a starting point. There are also online services, we did a blog post here: https://www.shimmer.care/blog/to...
I would maybe make the communication here a bit more. ADHD is not a problem it's an opportunity / strength etc. if utilised the right way. I probablyy have ADHD at some level but was lucky enough to figure out a strategy to tame it. I think. Love the mission here tho!
@sentry_co This is a great point / addition! I definitely feel this a lot, as my ADHD strengths of risk taking, hyperfocus, and creativity have been a massive part of my Shimmer journey (and even more so, life journey!). Learning to harness our strengths while working with our weaknesses is a life project. Thank you for your comment!
@yannell_selman Oh, absolutely love this question so much! Here is the full wall of detailed testimonials: https://testimonial.to/shimmer-c...
But a few of my favorite (simplified) are:
- 45-55 y/o sales manager who has been stagnant for decades, after 4-6 mo. of shimmer got promoted to director of sales and now manages 10+ others, and the best part is he never thought he could do this before! The internal shift even more important than external
- 30-35 y/o software engineer trying to start a new startup but stuck in the "planning" phase and not able to move to execution. After working with Shimmer coach for just a month, he has broken down various items and steps and his coach is his "accountability buddy" each week to move things forward!
- 25-30 y/o new mom, creative entrepreneurial type (smb, etsy-like business) was struggling to juggle everything with the new child and husband at work all day. Worked with one of our coaches and in the first few months already feeling incredibly inspired and putting systems in place in the household like calendar / physical objects near door to organize things, de-cluttering, etc.!
