Take one breath before you continue.
How it works
Many moments.
One Ritual.
Place your finger on Pranōa and follow the gentle vibrations — no screen, no audio, no counting.
01
Touch
Start Pranōa right from the pendant when stress, restlessness or an impulse appears. No phone, no setup — it is ready the moment you are.
02
Breathe
Follow the gentle haptic rhythm with your finger. It guides every inhale, exhale and pause — your nervous system settles with each breath.
03
Shift
Feel the change in your state — calmer, clearer, more present. Then act, decide or fall asleep more consciously.
The Pranōa app
Offline when you need it. Smart when you want.
The pendant works completely on its own — no phone, no screen, no signal. Connect the app when you're curious: it turns your pauses into patterns, progress and guidance.

About us
Built by two people who needed it themselves.
We are two founders — an ETH biomedical engineer and a breathwork expert. Our mission: build products that help us live longer, healthier and happier.
We started with ourselves. The stress arrived before we noticed it. The phone was in our hands before anything was decided. That is not weakness — modern life is built to bypass your head.
What helped in the end was not another app, but the opposite: a short pause between impulse and action. A deep breath. Enough room for the question: what do I actually need right now?
So we built Pranōa. Simple, wearable, effective.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
How does Pranōa guide my breathing without a screen?
Through gentle haptic vibrations. Place your finger on the pendant and it guides every inhale, exhale and pause — no display, no audio, no counting. You simply follow what you feel.
Do I need the app to use Pranōa?
No. Your breathing protocols live on the pendant itself, so it works completely offline. The app is optional — use it to personalise your protocols, track your moments and understand your patterns.
How long does a session take?
Most protocols take between one and three minutes — short enough for a meeting break, an urge or the moment before you fall asleep. You decide when it ends.
Can I wear it all day?
Yes, Pranōa is designed to be worn as a pendant throughout your day. It is light, quiet and discreet — nobody notices when you use it.
Is Pranōa a medical device?
No. Pranōa is a wellness product and is not intended to diagnose, treat or cure anxiety disorders, addiction, sleep disorders or other medical conditions.
