We Have an Intelligence Problem.
Just Not the Kind You Think.

Organizations invest billions in smarter tools, faster automation, and deeper analytics. And yet the biggest failures still come down to people: leaders who can't read a room, teams that break under pressure, decisions made from ego instead of awareness. The workplace doesn't need more knowledge. It needs more understanding.

Emotional intelligence isn't a soft skill anymore. It's the operating system behind trust, retention, and high-performance culture. The World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs Report 2025 lists emotional intelligence and self-awareness among the top core workforce skills through 2030, and among the skills least replaceable by AI. The problem is that nobody teaches it well, and almost nobody practices it consistently.

A Personal EQ Coach.
In Everyone's Pocket.

TrueAngles.ai is building the first platform where emotional intelligence is learned the way habits actually form: through short daily interactions, real-time feedback, and personalized reflection, not through lectures, workshops, or PDFs that get forgotten by Tuesday.

Every user gets an AI-powered coaching experience that reads their emotional tone, tracks patterns over time, and delivers micro-lessons tailored to how they actually feel and behave, not how a textbook says they should.

We start with two foundational competencies: self-awareness and interpersonal effectiveness. These are the skills that unlock everything else, from managing conflict to building trust to making better decisions under pressure.

The core insight: intelligence and automation are no longer the bottleneck. Human self-awareness and interpersonal effectiveness are. We augment human decision-making rather than replacing it.

How It Works

The platform is designed around a daily loop that takes just a few minutes but compounds into lasting behavioral change over time.

01

Check In

Each day begins with a mood check-in using our emotional wheel. The system captures how you feel, not just what you think, creating a living map of your emotional patterns across days and weeks.

02

Engage

Based on your current state, the AI selects a personalized micro-activity: a reflection prompt, a scenario-based exercise, or a guided coaching moment. Everything is under three minutes and designed for real life, not a classroom.

03

Grow

Insights accumulate on your personal dashboard. You see trends, identify triggers, and track genuine growth across the 12 EQ competencies. Gamification keeps it engaging. Science keeps it meaningful.

What Makes This Different

AI That Listens, Not Lectures

Our coaching engine reads tone, emotion, and interaction patterns to mirror back what users might not see in themselves. It asks the right questions at the right time, creating genuine moments of self-discovery instead of generic advice.

Human in the Loop

AI opens the door, but humans take it forward. For deeper work, users connect with certified coaches who pick up exactly where the AI left off. This hybrid model builds the kind of trust that pure automation never will.

Science-Backed Methodology

Every competency follows an 8-week structured path built on Kolb's experiential learning cycle and habit formation research. Users learn, practice, and apply in a rhythm that mirrors how the brain actually rewires behavior.

Privacy as a Feature

Emotional data is deeply personal. We never sell data, never train external models on user inputs, and never require an account to try the experience. Trust isn't just a policy here. It's a product decision.

The Market Is Ready

The World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs Report 2025, surveying 1,000+ employers across 55 economies, identifies emotional intelligence and self-awareness among the top core skills for the workforce through 2030. These are also among the skills with the lowest AI substitution rates, meaning they remain uniquely human and increasingly valuable as automation accelerates. The market isn't emerging. It's here.
