Live on iOS & Android

A breathing app. A breathing break in Claude.

VirWave is a breathing app, live on iOS and Android. VirWave Breathe brings the same practice into Claude, so a breathing break is one ask away, right where people already work.

What we're building

One practice, two places to use it.

The breathing app on your phone, and VirWave Breathe inside Claude. Same shapes, same pace, same no-guilt approach, wherever you are when you need it.

The app

Twelve breathing patterns, drawn as shapes you can follow with your eyes. Next on the roadmap: an emotional portrait and relational pairings that give you language for how to show up for the people you love.

  • Live · iOS + Android
  • Twelve breathing patterns
  • Portrait & pairings · in development

VirWave Breathe

A breathing break inside Claude. Ask for one and Claude draws a calm, animated session right in the chat, hold-free unless you ask otherwise.

  • Live · free for Claude
  • Same patterns as the app
  • More AI assistants · next
