Move again, gently. Daily care built around your back.
Omurga is a wellness app for people living with back conditions. Exercise, back-safe yoga and nutrition are planned around your condition and how you feel today. An AI Coach adjusts the plan with you, and knows when to stop and point you to help.
Back pain is the world's leading cause of disability. Fitness apps ignore it.
Most people with a back condition are told to "stay active", then left alone between appointments with generic workouts that don't know their spine.
Generic plans hurt
A flexion-heavy routine that suits one condition can aggravate another. Most apps never ask what you live with.
Fear stops movement
People in pain move less because they don't know what is safe, and moving less makes the pain worse.
Bad days break streaks
Flare-ups are part of the condition. Apps that punish a missed day lose exactly the people who need them.
One plan, three pillars, shaped by your condition.
Onboarding asks about your condition, symptoms and goals. Every movement, flow and meal is filtered against it, and a short daily check adjusts what today asks of you.
Fitness
Progressive, phase-based sessions with step-by-step guidance for every movement. Exercises that don't suit your condition are never offered.
Yoga
Back-safe flows and poses with a breathing guide, for mobility and calm on good days and gentle relief on hard ones.
Diet
Anti-inflammatory weekly menus, recipes, a food diary and barcode scanning, adapted to your goals and allergies.

A coach that knows your back, and its limits.
The Coach sees your condition, recent check-ins and progress, so its answers start from your situation instead of a generic one.
- Suggests, never silently changesPlan changes arrive as a card you apply or decline. Your plan only changes when you say so.
- Real-time and resilientReplies stream to the phone as they are written and are saved on the server, so nothing is lost if the app goes to the background.
- Hands off to SafetyWhen a message reads like a warning sign, the Coach stops coaching and points to the Safety screen and emergency help.
Built for people who are anxious about their back.
Omurga supports wellness and education. It does not diagnose, and the product is designed so that it can't drift into doing so.
Red-flag checks
The daily check screens for warning signs. The server decides when to pause the routine and send you to help, not the client and not the AI.
SOS works offline
The Safety screen and your local emergency number are bundled into the app. They work with no connection and are never behind a paywall.
Forgiving by design
Flare mode offers relief instead of workouts. Rest days are protected and streaks don't punish a bad week.
A small team shipping a full product, with Claude.
Omurga is built end-to-end with Claude Code, and its AI is moving to Claude. Careful, honest handling of health conversations is the part of this product we care about most.
Built with Claude Code
Every layer of Omurga is written with Claude Code, guided by project rules and custom skills for our design system, product behaviour and architecture.
- The Expo / React Native app, specified as 58 screens
- The Laravel API and its modules, behind an OpenAPI contract
- The admin panel and the end-to-end tests
The Coach on Claude
All AI runs through our own backend behind a provider-agnostic layer. The app never holds a model key. We're bringing these features to Claude:
- Coach conversations, using Sonnet
- Personalised programme and weekly menu generation
- Lightweight daily check-ins, using Haiku
- Prompt caching for each user's condition profile
