Some memories you can't shake. You can stop carrying them in your body.
An AI coach walks you through structured EMDR-informed sessions at your own pace. Available the night something surfaces, not three weeks from now when you've already pushed it back down.
The real app, shown with a sample story
What you couldn't do alone before, you can do now.
The real work, not a stripped-down version.
Most apps give you one piece of the technique and stop. Floatback runs the whole method, start to finish.
One coach. Two ways to meet it.
Some nights you need to work on one thing. Other nights you just need to talk and find out what is going on in there. Floatback has a room for each. Same coach in both. It never hands you off to a stranger.
A room to talk it through
A room to work on one thing
And it reads the room. It knows when you need a question, when you need one specific move, and when you just need it to stay quiet and listen.
See that you're actually changing.
Most apps give you a session and a session log. Floatback gives you a map. As things move, the map changes. You don't just feel different over time. You can see what shifted.
It remembers you. And it learns you.
Every other app makes you start from zero, every time. Floatback remembers your story. Where you left off, what you have already moved through, what tends to grab you. The more you use it, the better it knows what you carry.
It greets you where you left off, not with a blank screen.
It knows what you’ve already moved through, so nothing has to be retold.
It notices which ways of helping actually land for you, and reaches for those.
Its skills keep growing. The coach you meet next month knows more than the one you met today.

I built Floatback because it changed me first.
I'd never really gone to therapy. I'd tried it and quit. I didn't think it was helping. I think I wasn't ready to confront anything, really. I bounced off everything an ADHD brain bounces off of.
Eventually I did EMDR. And it was life-changing. Absolutely amazing.
It woke up something new in me. I felt different, and I kept doing it, and I continued to feel different.
I started seeing how many of my most vivid childhood memories were stories of an unseen, hurt, humiliated kid. My therapist helped me meet little me. A boy who was scared, alone, feeling like a disappointment. After the first rounds of EMDR I was lit up with new life. Resilient. Calm. Level-headed around the house in a way I hadn't been before.
I'm a financial coach by trade. After my own EMDR work, I started recommending it to clients. Once you process the trauma underneath the money story, the practical stuff actually starts to work.
When I wanted to keep doing the work between my own sessions, I tried the self-guided EMDR apps. They had me name a memory before I'd even settled in. Walk in cold, pick the thing, follow the dot. No warmth, no moment to settle, no way into the headspace the work actually needs.
So I built Floatback. For the days you're not in the chair, and for the people who can't get there at all.
I built it to feel like what I knew from the real thing. It took a lot of routes and tinkering before the architecture settled. The coach reads from a library of moves I pulled from the published EMDR research. The same eight-step shape EMDR uses is held in the code, so the coach can't skip a step or move on until the work in that one is done. The model serves the structure. It doesn't improvise.
Using it on myself, it kept opening things up. New things to learn. New connections. More softening of what my past had been doing to my future. That's when I knew it was real.
Notice it. Work it through. Feel it lift. Come back.
Explore
Tell the coach what's going on. You don't have to name the big thing first. You start where you are, and it helps you find what's underneath.
Nothing to prepare.
Build your map
What you talk about becomes a map you can see: the patterns you carry and the memories under them, in one place.
Take your time.
Work it through
Pick one thing and do an EMDR session on it. The coach runs it. You turn your phone sideways, the room goes dark, and you follow the dot.
Pause anytime. A stop button stays on screen.
Feel the weight lift
When something loosens, you feel it. Floatback checks back in later and shows you the charge going down, so you can see it working, not just hope it is.
Open it for ten minutes. Open it again tomorrow. Piece by piece, the weight gets lighter.
No card.
Going deep is only possible because you're held.
Other self-guided tools hand you a powerful technique and walk away. Floatback was engineered the other way around. The coach paces you. It notices when something is too much and slows down, or stops, and helps you settle before going on. And if what comes up needs a human, it says so, plainly, and points you to real support.
A stop button stays on the screen the whole time.
A calm room is one tap away, always.
Every question has a "Not now." Nothing is forced.
That is not a limitation. That is why you can finally go deep on your own.
