MotiSpark is an LA based startup founded by a team of people who are determined to make our love of checking our phones into something that can help us! We have created a few different versions of this platform – this one is designed to give you the latest behavioral science and persuasive design tactics for generalized wellness. Our hope is that these tools empower people to feel happier, healthier and more in control. We founders have all needed a lot of these tools are feel very honored to be able to share them with you.
Ariel McNichol, CEO & co-founder has been designing software for over 20 years. She started MotiSpark because she needed it and felt determined to find a way to use persuasive design for good.

Kyle Brinkman, CTO & co-founder is not the baby above because although Kyle co-founded MySpace, he’s never been the one posting tons of pics. Instead, he designs platforms for lasting engagement and is now finding a million ways of doing it to empower users.
