FAQ

DealtIn™ is a poker-focused mobile app combining a supportive community with practical performance tools like sensory grounding exercises, break timers, and session tracking. Our tools were built based on universal design, specifically considering how neurodivergent brains experience the highs and lows of the game. By creating an environment that minimizes stress and maximizes focus, we've built a clearer, more intentional poker experience that benefits all players.

DealtIn™ is for any poker player seeking a deeper, more mindful, and highly structured experience at the table.

While the app is intentionally designed to support the specific needs of neurodivergent players - including those with ADHD or autism - our clarity-focused tools offer an excellent competitive and intuitive advantage to neurotypical players as well. If you want to refine how you think, manage your mindset, and connect with a great community, DealtIn™ is for you.

DealtIn™ is free to use during our early access period. We'll share more about pricing as the app matures, but our goal is to keep core tools accessible to everyone.

DealtIn™ is built with React Native and will be available on both iOS and Android. During early access we're distributing via Expo Go and direct builds.

The toolkit currently includes:

• Pre-Session Check-In - assess your energy, mood, sensory comfort, sleep, and nutrition before you play, with a readiness score and honest recommendation
• Session Tracking - log results, energy levels, sensory load, and emotional states, with trends and a post-session review over time
• Grounding Exercises - a library of guided techniques including breathing exercises, 5-4-3-2-1 sensory grounding, body scan, progressive muscle relaxation, visualisation, and wind-down exercises for after a session
• Sensory Coping Skills - discreet sensory strategies you can use at the table
• Break Timer - timed breaks with soothing sounds
• Fidget Spinner - a virtual spinner for sensory regulation
• Hand Notes - quickly log hands worth remembering during or after a session
• Poker Glossary - plain-language definitions of poker terms, no jargon

Before you sit down to play, the check-in walks you through five quick assessments - energy, mood, sensory comfort, sleep quality, and nutrition. It generates a readiness score and gives you an honest recommendation about whether today is a good day to play.

Yes. Sensitive personal data (phone number, bio, session financials, check-in data) is encrypted at rest. We don't sell your data, and we don't share it with third parties. Forum posts are visible to the community, but your session details are only shared if you explicitly choose to.

No. You can optionally add neurodivergent identity tags to your profile (like ADHD, autism, etc.), but it's entirely up to you. The app works the same regardless of what you share.

The community is where you can share session recaps, strategies, and experiences with other players. You can react to posts, leave comments, and save posts you want to come back to. Filters let you quickly find your own posts or threads you've joined. Sharing is always optional - your session data stays private unless you choose to post it.

The community is designed to be supportive, not competitive. There are no leaderboards or rankings - just players who get it.

Absolutely. Every tool is designed to work discreetly at the table. Grounding exercises run silently, the fidget spinner is a quick sensory reset, and break timers help you step away at the right time.

Download the app and sign up with your email. We use passwordless login codes by default - no password to remember. You can optionally set a password if you prefer.

We'd love to hear from you! You can reach us through the community section of the app or by emailing us directly at [email protected]. DealtIn™ is built by and for the neurodivergent poker community, so your input shapes what we build next.
