Matter Neuroscience

As seen in Happiness, the film by Max Joseph.

Be happier. Here's how it works.

Our positive emotions are created by six neurotransmitters in the brain.

When you experience, plan, or recall a good moment, those neurotransmitters are activated. In fact, when you re-live a moment, you feel the same positive emotions you experienced in the moment that created the memory.

CREATE AND RATE GOOD MOMENTS
Pay attention to moments when you feel good. Add a memory to Matter and rate the positive emotions you felt during this moment. Your emotion ratings are used to estimate the neurotransmitter levels in your brain. This data is translated into your Matter Score.

LEARN WHAT YOUR HAPPIEST MEMORIES REVEAL - SCIENTIFICALLY

Matter Intelligence Beta helps surface your most meaningful photos and provides insights and analysis using our neuroscience-based framework.

More good memories and emotions build neuroplasticity, the basis for creativity, intelligence, empathy as well as longer, healthier, happier lifespans. This is backed by long-standing research. Find detailed references in our bibliography at matter.xyz/references.

Tracking your Matter Score is a way to see how your brain benefits from your good memories and emotions, confirmed by our own fMRI studies. Learn more at matter.xyz/science

MAKE PLANS THAT INSPIRE YOU

Matter plans are small commitments to meaningful experiences that excite and inspire you. Planning ahead not only helps you follow through on what matters most but the anticipation also allows you to anticipate the experience, engaging the full spectrum of expected emotions, just at a lower intensity.

LIVE A BETTER LIFE
As you add memories, you'll start seeing patterns in your neurotransmitter activity and you’ll get research-backed suggestions to address any gaps.

YOUR DATA IS YOUR DATA
Your data is your data. Your photos, personal health, and memory information are kept private on device and in your iCloud account. They are not shared with Matter.
