Meet Professor Dan Ariely,
the creator of Shapa

Dan is a Professor of psychology and behavioral economics at Duke University. His TED talks have been viewed over 15 million times. And he is the author of the three New York Times best sellers. In 2018 he was named one of the 50 most influential living psychologists in the world.

Dan wants you to understand the problem with the common scale and why Shapa will help you achieve your health and wellness goals.

The problem

Normal scales don’t give us the full picture or the information we need. In fact, they are often time misleading and demotivating, leaving you confused and frustrated.

The solution

The revolutionary Shapa scale eliminates confusing weight fluctuations and gives meaningful feedback so you can lose the weight and keep it off.

What does each Shapa Color mean?

For the first 10 days, Shapa will ask you to step on the scale twice a day. After those 10 days, Shapa will have found your baseline weight. After this baseline calculation, you will see your first Shapa color.

Shapa color looks at your trend over the past few days compared to the past few weeks. With the Shapa Color, you know if the changes you’ve been making recently are getting you closer to, or farther from, your goal. Your color will not change daily but may change once, maybe twice, in a week depending on your overall progress.

The color feedback is personalized such that Shapa will follow weight trends and confirm it’s a true weight change vs natural weight fluctuation.
