What's so awesome about it?

Consumers can use our fitness application for accurate activity insights.
Business users can use our API to enable a context-aware mobile platform.

3-million lives

Physical inactivity has been identified as the fourth leading risk factor for global mortality causing an estimated 3.2 million deaths globally. [WHO] GoalTick can help promote physical activity and make it simple to track.

Mobile sensor data

79% of people ages 18-44 have their Smartphones with them 22 hours a day. [AdWeek] As smartphone sensors provide meaningful data on location, movement, and environment, they are primed for accurate context recognition.

Smart mobile ads

By 2017, mobile apps will generate revenue of more than $77 billion. [Gartner] Our context prediction API can help business users maximize returns on their mobile platform.

Google Play store

Our GoalTick fitness application in the Google Play store can provide a breakdown of your daily activites, as well as allow for you to set goals and alerts to track your goals.

Machine learning

We've utilized the latest in machine learning technology to enable quick and accurate prediction of any mobile user's current context.

REST API

We've created a Flask-based REST API, which provides an endpoint for enterprise customers to use for their own analuyses.

How does it work?

See below for a visuals of our user-interface, architecture, and machine-learning model performance.

Future Work

Our plan moving forward

01. More Context

Adding data sources to our algorithms such as location and time for more precise context recognition.

02. More Sensors

Adding sensors such as the gyroscope or gesture-recognizers

03. More Data

As a user ticks their goals, they can opt to anonymously send their activity data to our servers in order to help improve our models. More data means more accurate models.

04. More Algorithms

Apply unsupervised machine learning algorithms, such as K-means clustering, to create new features to input into our main context-recognition model.
