rectify

a brand of MinkTec GmbH

We've been continuously developing our unique sensor technology since 2019. Together with engineers, doctors, sports scientists, and physiotherapists, we're working to develop the coolest app for back pain.

  • Raising awareness

    With our intelligent sensor shirt, precise posture analysis, and an app that combines training, feedback, and motivation, we create a connection between technology and body awareness. We don't want to create dependency, but rather educate and empower—and thus bring about long-term change. Because those who understand their back can change their posture—and those who change their posture often change much more.

    rectify stands for prevention instead of reaction, for personal responsibility instead of constant care and for smart solutions instead of rigid plans.

  • Long-term change

    Rectify isn't a product for quick results – our goal is sustainable behavioral change. Those who understand how their back truly works automatically make better health choices in everyday life. That's why we focus on repetition, training, reflection, and small daily successes that pay off in the long run.

    Our app motivates not through coercion, but through clarity, transparency, and personal relevance. We want to change habits, not just alleviate symptoms – and this doesn't require constant monitoring, but an intelligent system that puts people at the center.

  • Research in everyday life

    Back pain is one of the most common health complaints worldwide – yet the scientific understanding of posture and its connection to back pain remains surprisingly patchy. For a long time, the appropriate technologies to objectively record and evaluate everyday movements and postures were lacking. To date, most studies rely on subjective surveys or snapshots in laboratory settings.

    Systems like rectify's are changing this: For the first time, natural movement patterns in everyday life can be continuously and precisely recorded. This opens up entirely new possibilities for research – not only for prevention, but also for analyzing the causes of back pain.

    Therefore, rectify sees itself not only as a product for end users, but also as a tool for modern, data-driven research. Our goal is to help better understand the big "why" behind back pain over the coming years – and to close the gap between scientific theory and everyday practice.

sports scientist

That's why we developed rectify

Ramin Waraghai ended his football career at the age of 23 after suffering a double herniated disc. Years of back pain with no clear cause led him to study sports science.

His goal: to truly understand the causes of back pain – and find better solutions. He developed online courses, wrote books, and ultimately founded rectify with an interdisciplinary team.

With the sensor shirt, posture and movement in everyday life can be precisely analyzed – thus creating individual, everyday solutions.

rectify is his way of offering real help to those affected – based on experience, research and smart technology.
