CogniFit Personal Coach provides scientifically validated cognitive training that is tailored to meet the specific needs of individuals. The program, aimed at improving brain fitness for boomers and older adults, begins with a baseline assessment that gauges the brain's strengths and weaknesses. Following the assessment, users engage in exercises designed to train their brain which continually adjust to deliver training that is optimal for the user. The software uses advanced algorithms to keep the training challenging enough to improve the user's abilities, but not so difficult that the user is frustrated.
