Who Maddy is for

Sound familiar?

Maddy is built for AuDHD individuals and the people who support them, at home, at work, and everywhere in between.

If you have AuDHD

You know what you want to do. Starting is the hard part.

Maddy shows up every day as your companion, adapting to how your nervous system actually feels today, not how a task list thinks you should feel.

"Finally, something that gets it."
If your person has AuDHD

You want to support them. You just need a better system than nagging.

Maddy gives you a caregiver view: task approvals, a weekly goal, voice notes, without your person ever feeling watched or managed.

"I finally stopped feeling like the bad guy."
If you work with AuDHD clients

You're looking for a tool built on the science you already trust.

Contingency management. Shame-loop prevention. State-adaptive scaffolding. Maddy is grounded in the same evidence base you use in practice.

"Something I can actually recommend."

Immediate. Concrete. Yours to configure.

AuDHD brains respond to real, immediate rewards. Not abstract points or someday promises. Maddy is built around this. But what counts as a reward is your call. Money. Stars. Screen time. Gems. Whatever actually motivates your person. The caregiver sets the reward type and goal. The app runs the rest.

Pick your buddy. They'll meet you exactly where you are.

Choose a companion from 10 characters, give them a personality that fits how you like to be spoken to, and tag your interests. Maddy will know when to be funny, when to be quiet, and when to just say: I've got you today.

Adapts to your daily state. Tired day? Your companion shows up differently than a ready day. Shutdown is a valid state, and Maddy meets it with warmth, not pressure.
Knows what you're into. 40 plus interests from K-pop to astronomy. Your companion works them in.
Never repeats itself. Dynamic message system prevents the same line twice in a row. Always feels fresh.
How Maddy works

Three things. Every day.

No overwhelming dashboards. No shame when you miss. A simple loop designed around how an AuDHD brain actually functions.

01

Check in with your body

Start each day with a 5-state check-in. Maddy reads where you are: regulated, tired, restless, overwhelmed, or "I can't right now", and shows you only what your nervous system can handle today.

State-adaptive
02

See only what's next

One task is a door. Twelve is a wall. Maddy surfaces the right tasks at the right time of day. Focus Mode collapses everything except right now. No walls of text.

Time-aware
03

Earn your reward and reset

Every completed task earns a real reward, set by your caregiver, celebrated by the app. Then at midnight, everything resets. Yesterday's hard day stays yesterday. Always.

Daily reset

Not a habit tracker. A scaffolding system.

Every design decision in Maddy traces back to peer-reviewed research on AuDHD regulation, interoception deficits, polyvagal theory, and contingency management. This is applied behavioral science wrapped in warmth.

No app can claim to treat AuDHD. Maddy does not try to. What it does: scaffolds the specific executive function and interoception gaps that make daily living hard for people with AuDHD, and removes the shame that makes most tools fail.

Interoception-first design. The app assumes reduced body awareness. External prompts create the signal that is not firing internally.
Contingency management. Immediate, concrete rewards. The most evidence-backed motivational approach for dopamine-deficient reward pathways.
Shame-loop prevention. Missed tasks never accumulate. No red badges. No guilt carry-forward. Every day starts clean by design.
Variable regulation model. AuDHD people do not have consistent days. The 5-state check-in meets them where they actually are.
Caregiver equals support, never surveillance. The caregiver view is framed around connection, not monitoring.

"I built this for my daughter Maddy."

Maddy is awesome. She has Level 1 AuDHD. Like a lot of young adults with her profile, the gap between potential and daily function was real. She can totally figure out how to navigate public transit, the airport, even fly to London and meet me on a trip. But brushing teeth? Different story.

Maddy was never failing. The tools available, and my own skills, were not built for her brain.

So we built an app and learned another way. What started as an app for one person became something I realized was needed by a lot of people. If you are reading this, it was probably built for yours too. Or for you.

Jeremy Runge, Maddy's dad

"The joy of building this together brought light on my differences and how I do things differently. I love how people can pick their own journey and show what they are passionate about."
