Indy is a free, AI-powered ADHD support app designed for how ADHD brains actually work. Informed by behavioral science and insights from 80,000+ coaching sessions, Indy uses adaptive systems and structured prompts to help you stay connected to what matters through future-mapping, daily scaffolding, and guided reflection.
Finally, an ADHD support app that’s practical and science-based. Structured prompts and future-mapping could make a real difference for people who struggle with traditional tools.

@leotrim_lota Yes! We've heard so much from our beta users how other apps are not structured well for ADHDers. They do things like nudge you on to-do list items or break down tasks, but don't help with the deeper parts of ADHD: motivation over the long term, task paralysis, problem solving and solutioning in a way that's personalized to your unique ADHD, the list goes on! Thanks for the kind words!

@anthony_scarpone_lambert Thanks so much for the support and really appreciate the shares too!!
Wow, Indy looks amazing! The focus on future-mapping is exactly what I need. How does the AI personalize the daily scaffolding based on my past reflections? This could be a game changer!
Shimmer ADHD
@jaydev13 Great question! Our AI tracks what you mention in your reflections and is able to recollect them during your daily planning chats, so it would recall what you were working on before or what you wanted to adjust from the previous day(s) and personalize the support around that rather than just generically helping you plan your day.

Hey everyone! I’m Anthony, one of the engineers at Shimmer. We’ve had a ton of fun building Indy, and honestly it’s been really cool seeing the impact it has already made on people's lives.
From the start, we wanted to be super intentional about structure. The goal wasn’t to make something that talks forever, it was to make something lightweight that helps you get what you need in terms of structure and clarity, so you can go and tackle whatever is most important for you in your life.
If you’re curious, I’d love for you to check it out. And if you have questions, feedback, or ideas, feel free to leave a comment!

@anthony_lin It's crazy to see all your hard work come to life man! Been an exciting journey with Indy so far and can't wait to see the next stop!

Thank you so much @garrytan for hunting us!
Hi everyone! I’m Vikram, co-founder & CTO of Shimmer. 😊
We’re excited to launch Indy, a free AI-powered ADHD support app.
From an engineering perspective, we obsessed over one question: how do you make AI useful for those with ADHD without turning it into an endless chatbot or a noisy productivity tool?
Indy is intentionally the opposite of most AI products:
short interactions, not infinite conversations
structured flows, not blank-page prompting
designed to reduce cognitive load, not create more
built to be helpful in real moments, not just give “good answers”
We built Indy with our beta community and iterated fast based on real usage. If you have feedback at all whether positive or negative, please share it with us at support@shimmer.care and we’ll do our best to respond quickly so that we can improve the app based on your feedback.
Thank you PH community for supporting our launch today and excited to hear what y’all think!
Cheers,
Vikram – Co-founder & CTO, Shimmer
I am loving Indy so far. Having a guiding theme for my week and then checking in every morning and evening is proving to be the structure. I need to get more done and also notice the wins from the day.

@laura_boggess So glad to hear it's been helpful! Definitely let us know if there's anything we can ever do to improve the experience for you as you use Indy!

Hey Product Hunt Community!
I’m Alex, Shimmer’s Senior Manager of Care & Coaching and I’m super excited that the launching Indy expands the ways in which we can serve the ADHD Community!
We know there’s so many great forms of service out there, but it's often inaccessible due to cost or time constraints, and the current apps on the market really don’t focus on long-lerm, future-orientated wellbeing for the ADHD Community. I am so honored to get to be part of an initiative that focuses on making care more feasible.
What I love about the space we created is that it creates a consistent space to pause, reflect, and reset. It gives people a way to reconnect with what matters, which can be so challenging to do.
I’m excited to see how people use it, and what we learn from the community next.
Best,
Alex

@alex_bellitter Have to give a huge shoutout to you for all the care and intention you put behind all of the guided exercises and flows within Indy! It's amazing to see all the work you were drafting on Notion docs and figjams to finally be out in the real world!
