[Product Hunt]( [Read in browser]( [Tinder founder launches a mood-tracking ring]( The founder of [Tinder]( is switching lanes and going into the wearables market. Sean Rad, who founded the dating app back in 2012, is launching the [Happy Ring](, together with the Happy Health team. The device uses AI and biometric sensors to track your mental health. These include a custom electrodermal activity (EDA) sensor that looks at how your stress levels change in real-time. In short, it monitors your sympathetic nervous system to detect when your fight or flight response gets triggered. You know, the thing that keeps us alive in dangerous situations. While the design itself might remind you of the [Oura]( ring, the team reassures those interested in using it that the form factor was a constraint – research led them “specifically to the finger, as it is the gateway to the autonomic nervous system allowing for the most accurate monitoring of the wearer’s mood state.” They also add that the Happy Ring has more sensors than existing health tracking devices out there and focuses primarily on one’s mental health, rather than physical stress. The [Happy Ring]( doesn’t only tell you about your mood on an ongoing basis. It also uses AI, which constantly adjusts based on what it learns from you, to provide personalized exercises that can help lower your stress levels, like breathwork and journaling. Apart from Sean Rad, makers of the product include Dustin Freckleton, former co-founder of BioTech company LVL Technologies, and Sue Smalley, Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences at UCLA. We’re curious to see how the new gadget will measure up to existing ones. In the meantime, here’s a [great thread]( on how other makers are taking care of their mental health while building.
