INGShift — Our Story
INGShift Began With A Simple Idea:
What if changing your life was as easy as changing your -ING?
Instead of smoking, what if you started swimming?
Instead of scrolling, what if you began writing?
Instead of worrying, what if you tried breathing?
We realized that life transformation doesn’t require a new identity —
just a new -ING.
Now, INGShift uses AI habit-matching to help anyone quickly swap negative -INGs for positive ones and build better routines that last.
Small shifts. Big life changes. One -ING at a time.
Core INGShift Features
🟦 Feature 1: Behavioral Replacement Engine
Users choose a habit you want to replace (smoking, snacking, doom-scrolling, etc.).
INGShift’s AI recommends a healthier replacement action (“Shift ING”) matched to your personality, goals, and lifestyle.
Examples:
-
Smoking → Swimming
-
Stress-eating → Breathwork
-
Doom scrolling → Night journaling
🟦 Feature 2: AI-Generated Transformation Video
The app instantly produces a personalized, cinematic video showing your “future self” after making your habit shift.
This visual creates emotional motivation and buy-in.
🟦 Feature 3: Predictive Trigger Modeling
AI analyzes user patterns (time, mood, location, stress signals) to predict when a trigger is likely.
It then sends pre-emptive interventions, reminders, or supportive prompts before the bad habit happens.
🟦 Feature 4: Smart Check-ins & Micro Coaching
Chat-based AI support provides:
-
Motivation
-
Replacement suggestions
-
Habit reinforcement
-
Emotional check-ins

Short, actionable exercises
🟦 Feature 5: Personalized Habit Pathway
Each user gets a custom plan that adapts as they progress.
The system learns:
-
Which triggers matter
-
How strong cravings are
-
Which replacement behaviors work best
-
When the user is most successful
It evolves with the user.
🟦 Feature 6: Social Support Circles
Immediately after onboarding, users are placed into optional small support groups or interest-based circles.
They can share wins, struggles, and tips and receive AI-moderated positivity and safety oversight.
🟦 Feature 7: Streak Tracking & Progress
Users see their progress in:
-
Days shifted
-
Triggers avoided
-
Replacement behaviors completed
-
Mood improvements
