Hi, I'm Johnny. I'm building Feel, an emotionally intelligent wellness app that helps you navigate your emotions and shift your mood in real time.

I built the viral website cryonceaweek.com that received millions of users and I've since grown the Feel social media to 40k+ followers and over 100 million views. We also have thousands of people on the waitlist for the app.

We've built the MVP but need someone who can help take it to the next level. We're a small team of artists, designers, and scientists and we need a talented engineer to join the team and help bring the project to life.

Looking for someone who:

-Has built and shipped real products -Loves LLMs, prompt engineering, or emotional AI -Is curious about mental health, mood tech, or creative computing -Can work across frontend/backend -Wants to build something creative, weird, and useful, not just optimize metrics

This is a founding role with equity first and salary post-funding. We have strong interest from investors but we are waiting to start fundraising until after we launch.

This is a mission driven project with a lot of room for creativity and impact.

If this resonates or you’re curious, I’d love to talk: johnny@feelapp.io

Scientists divide the liquid product of crying into three distinct categories: reflex tears, continuous tears, and emotional tears. The first two categories perform the important function of removing debris such as smoke and dust from our eyes, and lubricating our eyes to help protect them from infection. Their content is 98% water.

Emotional tears are what provide the most health benefits. Emotional tears contain stress hormones and other toxins, so it can reduce the levels of these chemicals in the body. It also releases oxytocin and endogenous opioids, also known as endorphins. Which can have a relaxing effect and make you feel better.

This website claims crying can relieve stress for a week and helps you cry by playing a rotation of the most tear-inducing videos known to science.
