The tech, at a glance:


Mendi uses functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) technology to measure and provide real-time feedback on your brain's activity, specifically targeting the prefrontal cortex (PFC). This region is crucial for executive functions like focus, decision-making, and emotion regulation. By training with Mendi, you strengthen neural pathways in this region of the brain.


The Mendi Headband comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee from the date of receipt, allowing you to return the product if you're not satisfied. 



Additionally, the device is covered by a one-year hardware warranty, which provides a replacement if the product malfunctions or breaks under normal use conditions.


Experts Recommend Mendi

  • Mendi is bringing historically expensive brain imaging equipment directly to the public, allowing for at-home neurofeedback training. This is a company that adheres closely to the science, and I respect that tremendously.

    Dr. Ben Rein, PhD

    Neuroscientist, Science Communicator, Stanford University

  • Some people may be skeptical now, but in 5-10 years no one will be.

    Dr. Alan Pope, PhD

    Distinguished Research Associate, NASA

  • What we know about the brain is that 'if you do not use it, you will lose it'. The brain needs to be trained and used. Brain training for astronauts will be a key factor for future space travel, which is why NASA is sponsoring the research with Mendi.

    Terry Rector

    Senior Project Leader, The Aerospace Corporation

  • Neurofeedback brain training has been proven to help with a wide range of cognitive functions - from focus and stress, to sleep and mood disorders. Perhaps most fundamentally, consistent training can be used by anyone to improve their brain’s physical health.

    Dr. Lauren Silbert, PhD

    Neuroscientist, Princeton University

  • I review a lot of different devices on Techforpsych and you might be wondering if the Mendi is the right choice for you. I would say this is the best device out there for focus overall.

    Dr. Cody Rall, M.D.

    Fmr. US Navy Psychiatrist, Neurotech Expert, Founder of Tech For Psych

  • A good blood flow in the PFC (prefrontal cortex region of your brain) has been correlated with a general better health, memory and high performance. There’s also evidence that a brain that is more “fit” and with a lot of connections can slow down the onset of diseases.

    Dr. Francesco Bez, PhD

    Neuroscientist, Lund University

How it works

See your brain’s progress in real time

Place the headset. Start the training game. Watch your focus strengthen.

See your brain’s progress in real time
  • See your brain’s progress in real time
  • Step 1

    Wear the Mendi Headset

    Place the Mendi headset comfortably across your forehead, ensuring the sensors sit just above your eyebrows. This allows the device’s fNIRS sensors to measure blood-oxygen changes in your prefrontal cortex.

  • Now with Brain.fm sound

    Step 2

    Play the Neurofeedback Game

    Open the Mendi app and choose from multiple neurofeedback games. As you focus, oxygen-rich blood flow in your prefrontal cortex increases, and each game responds in real time to your concentration.

  • Step 3

    See Results & Build a Habit

    Practicing 5–10 minutes, three times a week, teaches your brain to self‑regulate. Within 4 weeks, these sessions strengthen neural pathways involved in attention control and stress regulation.

what to expect

See your brain improve in as little as 8 weeks

Commit to 3–5 sessions per week. Here’s how progress typically unfolds:

Weeks 1-2

Getting started & building your baseline

You learn to control prefrontal cortex activation through real-time neurofeedback; your brain establishes baseline patterns and the technique starts to “click”.

Weeks 3-4

Consistency builds control

Neural pathways begin strengthening; you can maintain PFC activation longer, with subtle shifts in daily focus and “emotion” regulation.

Weeks 5-6

Measurable change emerges

Many users report clear improvements; plasticity is consolidating and benefits carry over beyond sessions.

Weeks 7-8

Sustained benefit & habit formation

Improvements feel more automatic; your baseline activation is higher and the routine sticks.

Mendi is a portable neurofeedback brain training system that combines fNIRS technology with behavioral science to enhance brain health. The Mendi system includes two core components:

  • The Mendi headband which uses functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to monitor oxygenation in the prefrontal cortex (PFC).
  • A brain training mobile app which allows you to visualize and practice controlling your brain activity in near real-time.


With Mendi, you can measure, track, and strengthen your brain health. Consistent Mendi training enhances the brain’s executive functions, including sustained attention, emotion regulation, stress management, and working memory—fostering a healthier brain and greater mental well-being over time.


Thousands of users report positive changes in their brain health and mental well-being through regular Mendi use. The most frequently reported benefits include enhanced focus, improved emotional regulation, and higher-quality sleep. Mendi can support brain health across several key areas:

  • Mental well-being: Brain training is essential for mental health and is commonly used in clinical settings for preventive care as well as by individuals managing stress, anxiety, ADHD, and sleep issues.
  • Performance: A healthy brain is foundational for optimal performance. Many individuals and organizations use brain training to improve focus, decision-making, and productivity.
  • Overall health: Brain health impacts every part of the body. Just as with prioritizing physical fitness, maintaining cognitive health is essential for overall well-being.

Read more about how our community benefits from Mendi in our user stories.


New users should gradually adjust their neurofeedback training to suit their individual needs. During the first week, we recommend three 5-minute sessions to become familiar with the app and headband.

Over time, you can increase session length. Aim for 4–5 sessions per week, gradually extending them to 10 or 15 minutes as you progress, until you feel comfortable with daily sessions. Be mindful of mental fatigue, and prioritize quality over quantity by scheduling sessions under calm conditions for the most accurate feedback.


Mendi is suitable for all age groups, though we recommend it for ages 5 and up. It is particularly helpful for those seeking to improve focus, emotion regulation, and working memory as part of a healthy brain training routine.

Please note that Mendi is not a certified medical device and is not intended to diagnose or treat medical or mental health conditions. If you have, or suspect you may have, a medical condition, please consult your healthcare provider before using Mendi.


Get started in less than 30 sec:

  • Put on your Mendi headband and open the Mendi brain training app. Make sure it fits snugly on your forehead to measure brain activity accurately. 
  • Find a dim spot to avoid bright lights, this helps ensure a clearer signal.
  • Select your training duration and settle in. Relax and focus on the ball, aim to make it rise. Each time a star appears, think of it as instant feedback that you're “doing it right.”

Bonus Tip: Try a quick session before work, studying, or sports. It’s a great way to boost focus and mental sharpness!
