Curie is a personal trainer that will coach you to sit better. It's not about sitting straight all day but taking quick breaks and simple exercises.
Forget back and neck pain, reduce the risk of
serious health problems from sitting all day.
Hello fellow Product Hunters!
Curie is on a mission.
We see a lack of awareness especially among young people about the dangers of sitting for too long. That was also the main reason why we came up with the idea for Curie. I was sitting the whole day at my job, and after that, I was working on my startup. This lead to serious back issues, without ever knowing what the consequences are and being ever since a healthy and fit guy.
Curie wants to help you prevent any health issues by being proactive and more aware of the health risks.
As a big fan of the Product Hunt community I would like to give 2 free months of Curie :) to anyone who messages me at mario@curie.me.
Enjoy!

@curie@donmario Hey there! Shooting you a message. Also I think Product Hunt gave your site the hug of death, you're down right now :(
I like the idea but I doo have an issue with the permissions requested by the extension.
Couldn't you use the idle API to accomplish the same thing you describe in your other comments?

This app has a definitive potential to finally make me do something about my posture and I am more than amazed whit its beautiful simplicity so that is a solid upvote.
On the downside, I really dont get why on earth does chrome extension need my browsing history. That is a bit intrusive for an exercise app if you ask me.
All in all, it seams like a very nice app!
@ivan_cypher_hristic Hi Ivan, I've actually explained this in a post earlier, but we will double check if there is anything that we could remove in the sense of permissions. Thanks and enjoy your healthier life :)

Great idea Mariusz, this is small but real life problem, especially when you're working long hours. Thank you!
@pdziedzicz Thanks Peter :) , actually this problem is getting bigger and bigger as we spend more time sitting. Hope that you never will have to face this issue :)

At first I thought it was my workplace network that wouldn't allow it to work, but I've tried in different places and the app just wont work.
Hi Fernando, I'm sorry but we are having technical difficulties, we will post an update once it's live again.

Excited to try this out as a compliment to the other fitness/health changes I have been making. Just added the extension and will update here with feedback after a week or so
Hi everyone. Sorry but I'm closing the app for legal reasons. If anyone wants to buy the product please let me know.
If you still want to be healthy at work I suggest to go over my “Stay healthy at work” list on product hunt
