ErgoSense uses advanced local AI to monitor your ergonomics in real-time, helping you stay healthy and productive without ever compromising your privacy.
The Modern Desk Crisis
Our digital lifestyles are taking a toll on our health — and most of us don't even realize it
The Silent Crisis
Prolonged sitting and screen time lead to 'Tech Neck,' chronic back pain, and Computer Vision Syndrome.
The Focus Trap
We get so absorbed in work that we forget to blink or sit up straight until it hurts.
The Privacy Concern
Existing solutions often require cloud processing, raising concerns about having a camera pointed at you all day.
Digital Eye Strain
Low blink rates and excessive screen exposure cause dry eyes, blurred vision, and chronic headaches.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about ErgoSense
Yes! ErgoSense is 100% free to use, forever. It was built by a solo developer to help millions of people improve their health while working at their desks. There are no hidden fees, subscriptions, premium tiers, or in-app purchases.
Absolutely. All AI processing happens locally on your device. No video, images, or personal data is ever recorded, stored, or sent to the cloud. Your webcam feed is processed in real-time and immediately discarded. Your privacy is guaranteed by design.
ErgoSense processes your camera feed locally to analyze posture and eye health - this data never leaves your device. The only external data collection is anonymous error reports via Sentry (crash logs, app version, macOS version) to help fix bugs and improve the app. No personal or health data is ever transmitted.
ErgoSense monitors four key health metrics: Posture Quality (shoulder alignment, head position, spinal curvature), Eye Strain (fatigue indicators, focus patterns), Blink Rate (frequency tracking with healthy range alerts), and Focus Time (productive session tracking).
ErgoSense requires macOS 12.0 (Monterey) or later, works on both Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3) and Intel Macs, and needs camera access for the monitoring features. The app uses minimal system resources and runs quietly in your menu bar.
The 20-20-20 rule is a scientifically-backed technique to reduce eye strain: Every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. ErgoSense has built-in customizable reminders to help you follow this rule automatically.
No. ErgoSense is optimized to use minimal CPU and memory. It runs efficiently in the background using Apple's native frameworks for AI processing. Most users report no noticeable impact on system performance.
I'd love to hear from you! Send your feedback, bug reports, or feature requests to [email protected]. Your input helps make ErgoSense better for everyone.
Currently, ErgoSense is only available for macOS. I'm exploring options for Windows and Linux versions in the future based on user demand. Sign up to be notified when new platforms become available.
