How's My Posture?
Our AI analyzes a side-profile photo for common posture patterns like forward head posture and rounded shoulders by measuring body landmark alignment.
Desk jobs and phone scrolling take a toll on posture. Upload a side-profile, full-body photo and our AI analyzes visual alignment markers — like head, shoulder, and spine position — to flag common posture patterns such as forward head posture or rounded shoulders. Upload a side-profile photo below to see what your posture is really doing.

How the Posture Analyzer Tool Works
The AI detects body landmarks (ears, shoulders, hips, knees, ankles) from your side-profile photo and measures their relative alignment against a neutral reference posture to identify common patterns and their approximate severity.
Getting the Most Accurate Result from the Posture Analyzer Tool
Stand naturally (don't consciously correct your posture for the photo), against a plain background, photographed from the side at hip height for the most accurate reading.
Posture Analyzer Tool Accuracy & Limitations
This tool provides a general visual screening for entertainment and informational purposes — it is not a diagnostic or medical assessment. Posture-related pain or concerns should always be evaluated by a physical therapist, chiropractor, or physician.
The Story Behind the Posture Analyzer Tool
Postural assessment itself isn't new — physical therapists and chiropractors have used visual alignment screening for decades — but interest in it has spiked alongside "tech neck," the informal term for forward head posture linked to hours spent looking down at phones and hunched over laptops. Research on screen time and posture has grown substantially since smartphones became ubiquitous in the 2010s.
| Common pattern | Often associated with |
|---|---|
| Forward head posture | Prolonged phone/screen use, looking down |
| Rounded shoulders | Desk work, driving, lack of upper-back strength |
| Anterior pelvic tilt | Extended sitting, weak core/glute muscles |
"Neutral spine" alignment — ears roughly over shoulders, shoulders over hips — is the general reference point postural screenings compare against, though some natural variation between individuals is normal.
