About Us
Our Story
Emotions Explorer began as a late-night conversation between a neuroscientist, a clinical therapist, and a front-end developer who shared a single frustration: despite endless apps for productivity, very few digital spaces genuinely help people feel. We envisioned an interactive atlas where users could zoom into joy, zoom out from anger, and trace the hidden tributaries between shame and serenity.
What started as a passion project in a cluttered co-working loft has evolved into a comprehensive platform used by students, therapists, educators, and lifelong learners across 72 countries. Yet our mission remains unchanged: to demystify the kaleidoscope of human emotion by blending evidence-based science with elegant design and a dash of playful curiosity.
Our Methodology
Emotions Explorer intertwines peer-reviewed research from affective neuroscience, psychology, and interpersonal neurobiology with real-world narratives crowdsourced from a global community. Each emotion entry is vetted by:
- Credentialed clinicians ensuring clinical accuracy
- Data scientists validating linguistic sentiment models
- UX writers translating jargon into daily language
We iterate quarterly, correlating fresh studies and anonymized user feedback to keep the atlas alive, inclusive, and uncommonly human.
