Reinvigorate your brain with activities created by scientists to improve human cognition.

By regularly measuring your mental fitness, you’ll be able to identify areas for improvement and celebrate cognitive gains. Or take a baseline test to personalize your mental workout routine.

Sharpen your mind, boost creativity, or improve skills from critical thinking to problem solving. Measure your performance against others in your age group as you complete fun daily challenges like solving puzzles and memorizing patterns. Then you can read more about the science behind the exercises and track your evolution over time.
