About MAGIC AI

MAGIC AI is building the world's first AI health coach and personal trainer. We utilise our own proprietary computer vision, to provide personalised training sessions led by world-renowned athletes.

As of 2024, MAGIC AI is one of the fastest growing AI health techs in Europe, having ranked in Fast Company's World's Most Innovative Companies alongside Perplexity and Nvidia. Time magazine recently listed the MAGIC AI Mirror as one the 200 Best Inventions in the World.

MAGIC AI is the pioneer in offering users the opportunity to perform exercises in front of an intelligent hologram mirror. Our cutting-edge proprietary computer vision software enables real-time form correction, rep counting, and live feedback, resulting in a fully customised workout experience. We have also collaborated with top athletes to create exclusive workout content, revolutionising the way users can be trained in sports, strength training, yoga, dance, and more. With us, individuals can benefit from personalised tracking and feedback, as if being privately coached and corrected by the world's best, without the hefty fees typically associated with personal training.

We are backed by venture capital including 4 London and US based VC funds, who have also invested in well-known companies such as Daily Dose, Hypervolt, Scalapay and Onfido, as well as notable founders and executives from Spotify, Stripe, Facebook, TikTok and Tough Mudder.
