📌
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Deepak — a Flutter developer, and also a tabla player with a background in Indian classical music.
Growing up training in tabla, I always noticed something Western meditation apps never captured: Indian classical music isn't just "relaxing background sound" — it's a whole system. Different ragas are traditionally tied to specific times of day, moods, and even physical/emotional effects. Raga Bhairav for morning focus, Raga Yaman for evening calm — this is centuries of intentional design, not random ambient noise.
Most wellness apps I tried felt generic — the same lo-fi pads and rain sounds repackaged endlessly. I wanted to build something rooted in a tradition I actually grew up with.
So I built NAAD — 100+ tracks blending ragas, authentic instruments (bansuri, sitar, sarod, tabla, tanpura), guided pranayama, and mantra meditation, designed for sleep, focus, and stress relief.
This is a solo build, so there's a lot I'm still refining — would genuinely love your feedback, especially if you've explored raga-based or Indian classical approaches to meditation before. What worked for you? What didn't?
Thanks for checking it out 🙏

love how authentic this feels compared to the usual meditation apps out there. the ragas tied to specific outcomes is a genuinely smart touch. one thing that would make this a daily habit for me though is some kind of streak or gentle progress tracker, basically something that nudges you to come back tomorrow without feeling gamified or pushy. just a quiet reminder of your consistency sitting somewhere subtle in the app. otherwise the content alone is already enough reason to keep it installed

@negistulay10984 This is genuinely great feedback — thank you for articulating it so clearly. A quiet, non-gamified consistency tracker is exactly the kind of thing we want to get right (the moment it turns into streak-anxiety or push notifications guilting you back in, it defeats the whole purpose of a wellness app). No promises on timeline yet, but this is going straight into our feature notes. Really appreciate you thinking about it this deeply — makes a big difference for us at this stage. If you're up for it, sharing NAAD with anyone who'd relate to this would mean a lot today 🙏

Genuinely impressed by how the ragas are organized by purpose, not just genre. The Yaman track actually helped me unwind faster than my usual white noise routine.

@aynurv6z6 This means a lot — organizing by purpose instead of genre was honestly the hardest design decision, so hearing it actually changes how people use the app (vs just browsing) is great validation. Curious, did you try any other tracks besides Yaman yet, or has that been your go-to so far? Also, if you're up for it, an App Store review + a share/upvote here would go a long way for us today 🙌
