Based on addiction research
Scientific research showed that with cognitive bias modification (CBM) even gambling, alcohol and nicotine addictions can be reduced significantly. With the help of CBM and applied AAT* you can align your subconscious and automatic tendencies with your long term goals.
The dual-process of behavior
Distractions are everywhere
Tempting distractions such as instagram and netflix with immediate gratification are designed to be addictive and are more available than ever before.
Self-discipline is tough and limited
Overruling our subconscious tendencies in order to start studying, stop smoking or to go the gym, through sheer discipline is tough, exhausting and limited.
Bias is subconscious and automatic
Subconscious automatic tendencies steer us toward immediate reward seeking behavior such as tiktok, netflix, smoking, alcohol or junkfood.

The frame task
Each frame within a framerun will require one quick CL-based deciphering act: within the first seconds of a frame spot the shortest block and swipe its moving counter-clockwise, but swipe down if its moving clockwise.
Ready to start
You are now ready to start! Each framerun will take about three minutes. For best results we recommend a daily framerun for a period of 20 days.
Complete one framerun daily
Daily frameruns will weaken existing automatic tendencies and cognitive bias that steer us towards short-term temptations. Betterbias™ will simultaneously create ans strengthen new automatic tendencies towards your chosen replacement behaviors. Last but not least, these modifications will solidified by packing the amount of stimuli-behavior associations of several real-life days into a single framerun within Betterbias™.

What is Cognitive Bias Modification?
CBM aan AATr are methodologies designed, tested and proven on addictions such as gambling, smoking and alcoholism. Betterbias™ has adapted these methodologies to help people who want to align their subconscious towards more long-term goals. Lowering the required self-discipline to study instead of instagramming, to go to the gym instead of bingewatching netflix or eathing healthy instead of another deliveroo junkfood order.
Habit Forming
Just as with regular habit forming and learning, repetition is key. The Betterbias app let's you run the equivalent of 3 days of intensive habit forming behaviors in just a single 4 minute session.
CBM
Cognitive Bias Modification is a methodology that helps you shift your subconscious attention bias from immediate reward stimuli towards the behaviors associated with your long term goals.
AATr
Automatic Action Tendencies retraining is aimed at retraining automatic approach and avoidance bias that is responsible for nudging us towards certain behaviors before we either overrule or conceide to them.
Our mission
Addiction research has a strong and deep scientific background, but its insights and treatment methodologies are not yet being applied to help us fight the little temptations we face every day. Whether it is the addictive nature of social media, the convenience of junkfood delivery or our nicotine or caffeine addiction. We can’t and shouldn't rely on just our self-descipline to get us where we want to be.
Happy users
It just works! Less time spent everyday on Instagram.
