Verta lives in your menu bar, watches your posture with your webcam, and gently nudges you when you start to slouch. All on-device — nothing ever leaves your Mac.
Forward-head posture costs your spine around 10 extra pounds of load for every inch of drift. Verta catches it the moment you start slipping.
Your head creeps forward across hours of deep work. By 4pm your neck aches and you can't remember when it started.
A quiet nudge as you begin to slouch. You correct without thinking. Your menu bar shows a live score.
Verta doesn't yell at you. It learns your neutral posture, then shows you — with a glance at your menu bar — how you're doing.
Apple's Vision framework analyses each frame locally at 30 FPS. Frames are never saved or uploaded.
A 10-second calibration learns your upright neutral. Thresholds are relative to you — not a generic body.
Verta gets out of the way when another app uses your camera or mic. No pings during Zoom or Meet.
Hour-by-hour scores, weekly trends, and a breakdown of which apps you slouch in most.
Verta waits for a natural typing pause before it pings you. Optional 20-20-20 eye-break reminders.
An optional floating ring shows your live score over every app. Move it anywhere.
A face-mesh overlay tracks your head pose in real time. Dots light up red the instant you drift, green when you return to your baseline. Background blur keeps the world behind you out of frame.
It's a mirror that quietly tells you the truth about your posture.
A tiny colored ring in your menu bar shows your live posture score. Green when you're dialed in, amber when you're drifting, red when you've been off for a while.
No window to open, no notification shouting at you. Just a glance.
Hourly posture scores across your day. Weekly trends. A breakdown of which apps you slouch in most. ("You lose 30 min of good posture a day in Slack.")
Not surveillance. Pattern recognition — for yourself.
Verta has no server. No analytics. No account. Face detection runs through Apple's Vision framework entirely on-device. The only network call we make is Sparkle's auto-updater asking if a new version exists.

No. Frames are analysed instantly and discarded. Nothing is saved, and nothing is uploaded.
Yes — any camera macOS exposes. Verta defaults to the built-in camera on laptops and the selected camera otherwise.
Not reliably at laptop-camera distance — shoulders are usually cropped or inconsistent. Verta focuses on what it can measure accurately: head pose, face position, and drift from your baseline.
Vision framework is highly optimised. Expect roughly 2–4% extra battery drain per hour of monitoring on Apple Silicon.
No. Your card is captured at signup but only charged on day 8. Cancel any time before then.
A single subscription activates up to 3 Macs you own. Activate each with the same licence key.
No. Verta is a productivity and wellness tool, not medical advice. Please see a qualified clinician for persistent pain.
30-day, no-questions money-back on every subscription. Full policy here.
We spend hours every day at a screen. Verta is there, quietly, to make sure those hours don't cost you your spine.
