Myndlift is a comprehensive neurofeedback and brain health platform that combines brainwave and hemodynamic data to help users improve focus, calm, and cognitive performance. It’s compatible with Muse headbands and used by tens of thousands of members and thousands of clinicians globally, with over 1,200,000 sessions delivered to date.
What began in 2014 as a collaboration between Myndlift and Muse is now culminating in 2025’s most advanced neurofeedback system. While Muse focused on creating category-defining devices, Myndlift spent the past decade perfecting the software and clinical platform that turns these devices into a complete neurofeedback solution.
That shared mission set the stage for the next big leap. In 2025, the Muse S Athena marked a true breakthrough - the first device to combine EEG and fNIRS sensors, allowing the measurement of both electrical brain activity and blood flow simultaneously.

The new headband design also brought comfort and precision to another level, with improved signal quality, lightweight materials, and a flexible fit for smaller heads.
These hardware innovations align with major advancements in Myndlift’s software, creating the most complete neurofeedback experience on the market.
What makes Myndlift the leading neurofeedback device?
Myndlift’s proprietary neurofeedback algorithms and data models are built on over a decade of clinical EEG datasets.
These algorithms power personalized feedback loops and automated protocol optimization unmatched in the field. That’s why +2000 clinicians from +20 countries trust Myndlift, and why consumers consider it the leading at-home neurofeedback experience.

Signal quality | Accurate EEG readings | Enhanced signal quality, more stable readings |
Data depth | Brainwave activity only | Brainwave + blood-flow information |
Comfort | Standard fit | Improved comfort and redesigned materials |
Integration with Myndlift | Works with Myndlift’s system and external electrode for 10–20 EEG mapping | Same full compatibility, plus fNIRS integration |
Experience | Reliable sessions | More advanced, data-rich experience through dual-signal tracking |
What’s in the Myndlift App?
Myndlift delivers the widest range of brain training activities, and it’s the only neurofeedback device that connects you with a real human Neuro Coach for personalization, guidance, and support.
Here are just some of the powerful features that make it stand out:
1. Comprehensive assessments
Myndlift combines qEEG brain mapping, cognitive tests, and symptom questionnaires to help you understand your brain like never before.
Your dedicated Neuro Coach then uses those insights to create a personalized neurofeedback training plan made just for you.

Myndlift’s full-scalp 10–20 EEG data for precise, clinical-grade brain maps.
Brain snapshots
This new feature completely changes how you track your mental state. You can take quick, 3-minute Brain Snapshots as often as you like, getting instant insights into your current state: mental load, fatigue, focus, balance, and more.
For the first time, you can now track what and how things impact your brain - see how your brain data changes after yoga class, stressful meeting, or extra cup of coffee.

AI Summaries translate complex data into clear, actionable steps, showing you what makes your brain tick better and what slows it down.
Multi-sensory 3D neurofeedback
Experience neurofeedback like never before. Visual, auditory, and haptic cues turn every session into full-body immersion, so you can see, hear, and feel your brain improve.
Switch between games, guided audio, YouTube, or your favorite streaming platforms like Netflix or Hulu, all while training your brain.
