Meet Tinu™

A Quiet Companion for Overwhelming Days

A soft, sensory-friendly mobile app designed for neurodivergent people experiencing shutdown, overload, or burnout.

What is Tinu?

Tinu is not a productivity app. It is not here to fix you.

  • Tinu was built by a neurodivergent person for neurodivergent people. It offers support when speech is hard, lights are too bright, or everything feels like too much.

    The original design principles developed within The Bouncy Brain. It is not a white-label product or template. All language, tools, and visuals are original and rooted in our own development process.

  • Tinu was created from lived neurodivergent experience. It began as a quiet wish:

    “I want something that helps me when I cannot explain what I need.”

    Created by an autistic and ADHD public health researcher, Tinu bridges real sensory needs with minimal digital friction. No gamification. No streaks. No shame if you disappear.

    Just something kind to hold onto.

  • Motion over motivation.
    Kindness over compliance.
    Quiet over content.

    Tinu does not track. It does not judge. It will never yell.

    Because your nervous system does not need pressure. It needs permission.

Who Made Tinu

Tehnyat J. Sohail is an autistic and ADHD Pakistani-American epidemiologist and neurodivergent systems designer.

Tinu was born from her lived experience of sensory overload and shutdown and her desire for something soft, quiet, and kind to exist in those moments where she could not function, but still needed support.

Tinu is now being developed through The Bouncy Brain.
