Daily Dose of Happiness / About us

The people behind Pina

We built the app
we needed ourselves.

Lioverse is a small team with a big belief: wellbeing shouldn't feel like another performance. So we made something quieter.

We believe in small moments over grand gestures. In asking "how do you feel?" without expecting you to perform an answer. In technology that whispers instead of shouts.

What we stand for

Principles we build by.

🌿

Gentle over gamified

No streaks to protect, no badges to earn. The only goal is a small honest moment with yourself, once a day.

🔒

Private by design

Your emotional data stays yours. We don't sell it, profile it, or use it to target you. Feelings deserve privacy.

Small team, real care

Two founders and a mascot. Every decision is made by people who use the app themselves and know what it's like to need it.

The team

Three minds,
one shared feeling.

Dennis Koob
Dennis Koob
Co-Founder & CTO

Dennis believes the most meaningful technology is often the quietest. He builds the infrastructure that makes a one-minute check-in feel like it was made just for you.

Annika Latz
Annika Latz
Co-Founder & CEO

Annika wanted an app that asked how she was doing — and then actually listened. So she built one. She leads product, design, and the difficult art of keeping things simple.

Pina, feeling happy
Pina
Chief Happiness Officer

Pina is the emotional heart of the app. She changes how she looks based on how you feel — happy, calm, tired, anxious — and she never judges. She was the first one of us to make the team smile every single day.
