WORK / MAIBEL + AMFIT

Built from
being there.

Women’s wellness is the problem I’ve lived, coached and now build for.

01 / MAIBEL

A companion.
A very real
systems problem.

Maibel’s emotionally engaging AI companions help women build healthy habits through adaptive coaching, with real-world progress unlocking deeper storylines.

The first companion is an oppa. The bigger question is how emotional connection can help women sleep better, move more consistently and restart when life gets in the way.

Underneath the conversation: memory, routing, behavioural decisions, coaching strategy and safety boundaries. That’s the work I’m building.

MAIBEL / FROM IDEA TO EXPERIENCE

What I’m actually
building.

01 / THE EXPERIENCE

A companion in your DMs

On Telegram, a story-driven companion checks in, gets to know your goals and brings small wellness missions into everyday conversation.

Why the story matters

Healthy habits unlock new chapters. The aim is to make showing up feel engaging, rather than another task to tick off.

02 / THE SUPPORT

Small habits. Real context.

Movement, meals, sleep and the days when life gets in the way. I’m interested in support that can adapt when the plan stops fitting.

What “personal” means here

Remembering what someone has shared, understanding their present context and choosing when a gentle nudge is useful.

03 / MY WORK

The systems behind the warmth

I design and build the memory, coaching behaviour, conversation routing and evaluations that sit behind the companion.

Go deeper into the build

A warm answer is one moment. My work is about how the companion behaves across a relationship.

The questions
I’m working on.

How does support stay personal over time?

A companion needs to remember what matters and respond to the person’s present context — including when the right move is to hold back.

What makes emotional AI trustworthy?

Consistent behaviour, clear boundaries and testing across whole conversations. A single warm response can’t tell you the whole story.

Where should human intention stay?

I’ve learned to be deliberate about what to automate, and what still needs close attention to narrative, meaning and experience.

02 / AMFIT ACADEMY

Where this
all started.

Strength training. Flexible nutrition. Habits you can live with.

AMFIT grew out of my own transformation and the belief that women deserve a more thoughtful way to approach fitness. Coaching taught me the difference between giving someone a plan and understanding why they can’t follow it.
