PostureKindFind a comfortable position
Follow the guided front and side views. PostureKind saves derived reference measurements locally on your device.
Private, calibrated awareness
A webcam posture monitor that starts with your reference.
PostureKind estimates visible changes in your head, shoulders, and torso compared with a comfortable position you calibrate. Try a full 10-minute session without creating an account.
No recording. No video upload. No wearable. Camera permission begins only when you start.
Visible signal
Near your referenceA description of change—not a medical or posture score.How it works
Calibrate once, then notice sustained change.
Return to your work
The monitor estimates visible landmarks and describes how far they have moved relative to that personal range.
Receive a gentle cue
A sustained change can prompt a quiet reset. Ordinary movement and brief changes are expected.
Read the monitor clearly
“Near reference” is descriptive, not a verdict.
| Live description | What it means |
|---|---|
| Near reference | The visible measurement is within the current range around your calibration. |
| Approaching edge | A visible change is getting closer to the edge of that calibrated range. |
| Past reference | A visible change has moved beyond the current calibrated range. This is not a medical judgment. |
If your camera, chair, desk, or framing changes, recalibrate. A comparison against an old camera setup may not be meaningful.
The important limit
A webcam can see some things—not your whole workday.
The monitor can estimate visible landmark changes. It cannot know whether your feet are supported, whether your eyes need a distance break, whether a position is comfortable, or whether you have a medical condition. PostureKind handles movement, distance-gaze, and support as separate timed reminders.
Questions
Webcam posture monitor FAQ
Do I need an account to try it?
No. The public web preview provides a 10-minute session without an account.
Where does the camera video go?
Camera frames and raw pose landmarks are processed transiently on your device. PostureKind does not record, upload, or retain them.
Does the monitor decide whether my posture is good or bad?
No. It describes visible change relative to your calibration. The goal is awareness and variety, not a universal perfect-posture score.
Why does calibration include side views?
Front and side views help establish the local head, shoulder, and torso measurements used during your session. The guided flow should make each requested view and its progress explicit.
