Ancient wisdom for modern times.

Your body, in plain language.

Pali is a General Wellness app that reads your continuous glucose and heart-rate-variability signals independently of one another — each on its own terms, against your own baseline, never blended — and shows you each side by side, in calm, plain language.

Premium free for the whole beta Setup takes about five minutes Your data stays yours

A sumi-e ink painting of a mountain fading into mist.

Embrace the wabi-sabi

Wabi-sabi is the old idea that nothing is perfect, nothing is permanent, and nothing is finished — and that the beauty is in exactly that.

Your body works the same way. Pali isn’t built to chase a flawless day or a perfect number. It shows you the shape of the day you’re actually having, and gives it a name you can use.

What Pali shows

The whole vocabulary.

Balanced

Sitting where it usually sits for you.

Shifting

Moving away from your usual range, quietly noted.

Unbalanced

Further from your usual range than it tends to be.

Establishing Baseline

Not enough of your data yet, so Pali says so rather than guessing.

No score, no grade, no target someone else set for you.

Home — your state at a glance, from the shipping build.

Two signals, never blended

Each signal, on its own terms.

Glucose and heart-rate variability are read independently — each against your own baseline, never merged into a single number — and each shown as a calm, plain-language state, updated quietly in the background.

That separation is deliberate. Two signals say two different things about a day, and flattening them into one would lose the part worth seeing.

How Pali reads a day

Why people stay

Less to carry, not more.

Nothing to decode

No numbers to interpret and no dashboard to read. Four plain words, each one read against your own history rather than a target someone else set.

Quiet unless it matters

Pali surfaces meaningful shifts instead of constant alerts, and is designed to stay quiet when all is well. Peace of mind shouldn’t beep.

Yours, and only yours

Pali reads only the signals you choose to connect, through Apple Health and Nightscout. Analytics only — no advertising pixels anywhere on this site or in the app.

A different set of choices

Built the other way round.

The usual approach

  • More charts, more numbers, more to interpret at the end of a long day
  • Signals flattened together into a single score
  • A target set by somebody who has never met you
  • Five apps and five dashboards to keep up with

How Pali does it

  • Four plain words, and the whole vocabulary fits on one line
  • Each signal read on its own terms, never blended
  • Your own baseline, learned from your own data
  • One place that holds the signals, the log and the questions

What Pali does

Built to hold everything, and ask almost nothing.

Premium is free for the whole beta, so every one of these is unlocked from day one.

01

Cycle Intelligence Premium

Glucose and energy patterns sit alongside where you are in your cycle — context most glucose-focused tools miss entirely, and a real gap in metabolic wellness for women.

02

Active Recovery Premium

HRV-informed recovery nudges — a breathing moment, a guided stretch, a walk. When a reading drifts from your usual range, Pali can offer one. Always optional, never demanded.

03

Ask Pali

Tap the ensō and talk to Pali in plain words — to log a meal, ask what’s going on, or get context on your day. No jargon, no lookup, no leaving the app.

04

My Log

Meals, drinks, feelings, exercise and your calendar in one comprehensive log. Log a meal in your own words or with a photo; your calendar can come in automatically once you toggle it on.

05

On your wrist

A companion Apple Watch app and complication put your state a glance away, alongside quick ways to log, reset, or ask a question.

06

Trends

One day is a moment. Many days are a pattern. Trends shows how your days stack up over weeks and months, and what the steady ones have in common.

Everything Pali does

On your wrist

Your state, a glance away.

An Apple Watch is a nice-to-have, not a requirement — it’s needed to view the HRV information Pali reads, but everything else works without one.

Built on trust

The things that matter most stay free.

Connecting your CGM and HRV device (currently limited to Apple Watch) and logging your meals, drinks, and feelings are free and stay free. Your data stays yours.

Pali connects to Apple Health, and to your glucose data through Nightscout, to read only the signals you choose to share. You decide what is connected, always.

Before you ask

The questions we get most.

No. Pali is a general wellness product; it is not a medical device, does not provide medical advice or diagnosis, and is not a substitute for healthcare providers or a CGM’s own alerts. It never makes dosing or treatment recommendations. It is a companion for awareness and reflection.

One signal is enough. Pali reads continuous glucose and heart rate variability independently — CGM only, HRV only, or both. An Apple Watch is a nice-to-have, not a requirement: it’s needed to view the HRV information Pali reads, but everything else works without one.

Dexcom and Abbott connect through Nightscout; Medtronic through Guardian Monitor. HRV comes from an Apple Watch by way of Apple Health. You’ll also need an iPhone on iOS 16 or later and Apple’s free TestFlight app.

Premium is free for the whole beta. Every feature is unlocked from day one, with a founding rate available afterward if you want to keep going. Connecting your CGM and HRV device and logging your meals, drinks and feelings are free and stay free.

A shared demo data set shows the full experience without any personal data involved — details are in the Getting Started guide that comes with your invitation.

Until Pali has enough of your data it shows Establishing Baseline rather than guessing — about the first week of connected data for each signal. After that, your state is read against your own history rather than a target someone else set.
