Feel the shift

Follow the guided exercise. In under 5 minutes, your nervous system downshifts and you're ready to re-engage with your day.

Everything your ADHD brain actually needs

🎓

State-Based Interventions

Based on the autonomic nervous system. Each reset targets your actual physiological state, not a vague mood label.

🎮

Dopamine-Smart Games

Original games designed for specific nervous system states. Not distractions — targeted interventions that use your brain's reward system.

💓

Heart Rate Monitoring

Biometric syncing tracks your progress in real time. See your nervous system calm down as you follow the guided exercise.

Therapist Dashboard

Connect with your therapist directly through the app. They can see your patterns and provide support between sessions.

🚀

Smart Task Progression

Dopamine-based reward system that helps you build momentum after a reset. Start small, build up, stay moving.

5-Minute Resets for Every ADHD State

Evidence-based techniques you can try right now. Each guide includes steps, safety tips, and the science behind it.

Built by someone who gets it

Solace was built by a neurodivergent founder who knows exactly what it's like to be overwhelmed, frozen, and unable to find tools that actually work for ADHD brains.

  • ADHD-specific, not adaptedEvery tool was designed for how ADHD brains actually work, not retrofitted from generic mindfulness.
  • No long onboardingOne tap to start. Because if you could sit through a 10-minute setup, you probably wouldn't need the app.
  • Science-backed, not wooEvery technique is grounded in autonomic nervous system research and evidence-based practice.
  • Works in 5 minutesBecause your whole day shouldn't revolve around managing ADHD. Reset and move on.
"I'm neurodivergent myself, and I built Solace because the tools that existed for ADHD students — generic mindfulness apps, mostly — didn't work for brains like ours. Solace gives you what actually works: fast, specific, science-backed resets."
— Neve, Founder of Solace

Questions people ask

What is Solace?

Solace is a nervous system regulation app built specifically for ADHD. It gives you science-backed 5-minute guided exercises — breathing, grounding, and sensory techniques — to help you reset when you're overwhelmed, stuck, or overstimulated. You choose how you're feeling and get a personalised intervention matched to your state.

How is Solace different from other ADHD apps?

Most ADHD apps focus on productivity or generic mindfulness. Solace is built around the autonomic nervous system — you choose your state (overwhelmed, frozen, unfocused) and get a specific 5-minute intervention matched to that state. No questionnaires, no lectures. Just immediate relief that works with how your brain is wired.

Is Solace free?

Solace offers free core features so you can start resetting right away. Premium subscriptions unlock the full library of resets, smart task progression with dopamine-based rewards, heart rate monitoring, therapist dashboard access, and personalised suggestions based on your patterns.

Does Solace work for ADHD overwhelm and task paralysis?

Yes. Solace includes specific 5-minute resets for overwhelm, task paralysis, sensory overload, rejection sensitivity (RSD), and meltdowns. Each technique targets your nervous system state directly — it's not just telling you to take a deep breath. The interventions use grounding, vestibular input, cold stimulus, and paced breathing techniques backed by research.

Can I use Solace with my therapist?

Yes. Solace includes a therapist dashboard that lets your therapist see your patterns, which resets you use most, and how your regulation is progressing. It's designed to support the work you're already doing in therapy, not replace it.

Is Solace evidence-based?

Every technique in Solace is grounded in autonomic nervous system research, polyvagal theory, and evidence-based ADHD interventions. We use paced breathing, vestibular input, grounding, cold stimulus, and other physiological tools that have been shown to downregulate the stress response. We're transparent about sources in all our guides.
