Some of the teams that use Heroic
The operating system · Heroic OS
Built to close the gap between knowing what helps and doing it.
One loop, every day. Learn something small. Do it. Write down what happened. Thirty minutes, morning to night.
Guided paths
Pick what you want to work on. Get an ordered set of readings, classes and practices for it, with a finish line.
Daily practice
Three commitments, a morning and evening bookend, and a streak that counts what you did.
The library
750+ books distilled into 6 pages to listen or read, 50+ guided quests, and one new idea in front of you every morning.
Coaching, in OS+
Live group coaching calls and Bri.ai inside the operating system. Small groups with no feed, in both tiers.
What we help you improve
Every Note, class and program works on one of eight facets.
The eight hold each other up. Antifragility is the one that holds when the other seven slip. So a weak one drags on the rest. The Performance & Flourishing Score rates all eight, 1 to 10, from your first day.
