Mirror

Interactive home gym with live/on-demand classes

Overview

MIRROR provides an interactive home gym that hides inside a nearly invisible mirror and streams live and on-demand fitness classes. The device doubles as a mirror and a high-tech display, and users buy the hardware, subscribe to a workout library, and follow classes on-screen in real time or on demand. It stands out by blending into living spaces and offering a mix of live, on-demand content, personalization, and community, rather than focusing only on equipment or videos. The goal is to bring studio-style workouts into homes with easy-to-use hardware and a large, personalized library, making convenient, social fitness accessible to a wide audience.
