Built to Remember. Designed to Care.
🌟 Memory in Motion
MiM isn’t medical. It helps you shape today. Tools that keep families together for longer. MiM (Memory in Motion) is a system being built for people living with early Alzheimer’s, our Travelers, and the people who love them, their Supporters. Who MiM is for: Supporters and Travelers across the dementia spectrum—Alzheimer’s, frontotemporal (FTD), Lewy body, vascular, Parkinson’s dementia, mixed, MCI, or unsure. No diagnosis required. SUPPORTER: the care partner who sets the day’s rhythm, lays out the steps, and cheers the wins. TRAVELER: the person living with memory changes who sees simple Daily Prompts to steady the day. 👇👇👇
What is MIM?
The Problem
After diagnosis, families get a folder of pamphlets and fear. No structure. No lifeline. No roadmap.
Why Now
With new drugs like Donanemab and Leqembi, more people receive earlier diagnoses. They need support to live well in those extra years.
The Solution
MiM is a bridge between diagnosis and decline. It gives Travelers gentle nudges that help them keep doing what they love. It helps Supporters live alongside them instead of hovering.
MiM is a daily support system—not “just an app.” It’s kitchen-table simple: a few Daily Prompts the Traveler can actually do, a private place for family Moments, and a gentle safety check when it helps.
🧭 TRAVELER — living with memory changes; sees simple Daily Prompts and taps Done or Remind me.
🤝 SUPPORTER — family or friend; sets the rhythm, lines things up, cheers the wins.
⚡ TRAILBLAZER — early tester shaping what works in the real world.
💡 INVESTORS & ADVOCATES — fuel and amplify the mission.
Not another reminder app.
Not medical.
MiM = Structure. Connection. Agency.
(Private by default. No diagnosis required.)
Real Life. Real Routines. Real Support.
What Makes MiM Different?
DAILY PROMPTS CREATE STUCTURE It’s the smart Post-it on the fridge. Not just reminders. What It Looks Like • Daily structure for Travelers • Memory capture tools to preserve identity • A Supporter app with education and real-time updates • A library that separates truth from false hope
📅 Daily Memory Anchors
How it works
Right prompt, right time. Two big buttons: Do it or Remind me. When you tap Do it, MiM can launch the first step for you.
Everyday examples
Book a round of golf → Call the pro shop (opens phone)
Drive to the store → Open shopping list (then Start Maps)
Take the dogs for a walk → Start 10-min timer
Call Natalie → Dial now
Evening meds → Mark done
Why it helps
Less deciding, more doing. It’s the smart Post-it that pushes the first domino.
✨ Moments That Spark Connection
How it works
Snap a photo or voice note. Choose Personal or Family sharing. Traveler sees it big; one tap to Say thanks.
Everyday examples
Grandkids post a drawing
“Today’s tee time!” selfie
A quick voice “goodnight”
Why it helps
Short hellos beat long group chats. Mood up, stress down.
🔄 Support That Respects Space
How it works
Supporters see high-signal highlights (missed meds, fewer walks), set quiet hours, and can enable Outing check-in per activity (e.g., store run, golf).
Everyday examples
“Walked dogs — 10 mins ✅”
“Golf planned — check-in by 1:30 pm”
“Meds missed yesterday — nudge?”
Why it helps
You stay informed without hovering. Fewer arguments, more agency.
🏠 A Platform Built by People Living It
How it works
Big type. Two choices per screen. Private by default. Designed at a kitchen table, tested with real families.
Everyday examples
Good-day / Low-day toggle adjusts how many prompts show
Show more reveals extras when there’s energy
Family Circle only—no public feed
Why it helps
It feels human because it was built for our own.

"Alzheimer's isn't the end of living life!"
Ask Tim. He’s still chasing the ball down the fairway — proof that memory may shift, but meaning doesn’t.
Real Support. No Scripts. No Slogans.
Our story began with Alzheimer’s. Your story may be different.
MiM is for anyone living with memory change—and the people (and dogs) who love them.
A daily support system, not “just an app”: a few tiny steps you can actually do, private moments with family, and gentle safety that protects agency.
We didn’t build MiM for marketing. We built it because nothing else helped.
If that’s you, welcome. You’re not alone.

We're Looking for Trailblazers
MiM is almost ready to launch — but before we do, we need a small group of real families to test it with us in real life.
If you have a loved one navigating early-stage Alzheimer’s, you can help them and help others by joining as a Trailblazer crew.
Trailblazers aren’t perfect stories. They’re honest ones. Messy mornings, laundry piles, golf swings, crossword puzzles, good days and hard ones. That’s what we want — because that’s what MiM is built for.
Because the best systems aren’t built in labs. They’re built at the kitchen table — with the people who actually live this.
🟢 Registration is open.
👉 Join the Trailblazers by registering your interest today.

At the crossroads of daily life and science — MiM brings you insights, routines, and reminders that keep life moving forward.
🌟 Stories & Insights: Living with MiM
Little nudges, big shifts — explore our latest thoughts from the MiM Spark Blog.
stories from the first families who helped shape it.
MiM is How We Got Our Live's Back
These are the voices of our first beta testers — the families who helped us build MiM at the kitchen table.
The only help we got after my diagnosis? Honestly, it was terrifying. They wanted to lock me in the house and take away my car keys—like I’d already disappeared. But Vanessa wasn’t having it. She was furious. And determined. She started digging, researching, and building something better for people like me. MiM isn’t just an app. It’s the system we should’ve had all along. A way to live, not just decline. And this is what she’s done so far.” — Tim Bartz, Traveler (and Grandpa)
- Tim Bartz (Vanessa's Husband)
As beta testers for MiM, we’ve already seen meaningful changes in our daily life. What used to feel overwhelming now feels doable—even hopeful. Our father is more engaged, more active, and more like himself again. MiM filled a huge gap we didn’t know how to name until now. It’s not just a tool—it’s a lifeline for both the Traveler and the Supporter
- James Turner
We started using MiM during the beta, and within a week, our routines felt calmer and more connected. My mother actually asked to do the shopping—something we hadn’t heard in months. If you’re wondering whether MiM can help, the answer is yes. Start now. You won’t believe the difference.
- Christy Hughes
MiM filled a gap we didn’t even know had a name. After the diagnosis, we were handed a stack of brochures—but no map for daily life. MiM became that map. Since we started using it, my mother has been more engaged, more independent, and—frankly—more like herself. It’s not just helpful. It’s what was missing
- Linda Matthews
We’ve known Vanessa personally for years, so when we realized we were suddenly walking the same unexpected path, we were heartbroken—but not surprised when she turned that challenge into something extraordinary. MiM is exactly what was missing. It brings structure, dignity, and real progress back into daily life—for both the Traveler and the Supporter. Watching our loved one re-engage, with purpose and even joy, has been nothing short of remarkable. We just hope more families discover how game-changing this system really is.
