​
A lightweight wristband that provides immediate relief against hand tremors.
EFFECTIVE
Minimize reduces tremors by at least 80%, and even up to 95% in many cases.
NON-INVASIVE DESIGN
No side effects, no risks. It's as light as an iPhone, and fits under a sweater.
WORKS WITHOUT CHARGING
Up to 50% reduction in tremor amplitude even with no battery. *
TRACK YOUR TREMOR
Monitor your tremor severity in real time via our app, so patterns and triggers become easier to notice.
How
It Works
Using the same technology to stabilize buildings from earthquakes.
1. Strap on the Minimize band just as you would a watch. Wear it all day or only during certain activities - it will always work!
2. Track your tremor severity over time on the mobile app. This information may be useful to you or your physician.
3. Charge Minimize overnight and it will last you the whole day. Even if you forget, you'll still see some degree of tremor reduction.
The Results
Users wearing Minimize immediately showed improvement in their writing ability.
Our testers were asked to replicate a spiral with and without Minimize. They all experienced smaller tremors with Minimize. Similarly, users experienced increased coordination in almost all other daily activities.

Why we're building this.
Maanav Narula
Founder & Inventor of Minimize
It started with my grandmother.
About five years ago, I saw my grandmother struggling to sign her name because of essential tremor. It was the first time I truly understood how something as small as a shaking hand could affect so many parts of everyday life — eating, writing, getting dressed, and, over time, a sense of independence.
Minimize began as a project for her, built at a kitchen table with one goal: to help make those everyday moments a little easier.
Today, that personal project has grown into something much bigger. We're building Minimize for people living with tremor who want to hold on to more of the independence that makes daily life feel like their own.
