Introducing Lioness Insights: Knowledge is Pleasure!

Today, I'm so excited to share something our data experts and software engineers have worked many years on: Lioness Insights.

Eleven years ago, we started Lioness with one goal: help women learn more about their own bodies. Back then, very few tools helped anyone understand female pleasure. Most people had never seen what their arousal and orgasms actually look like.

So we built the world's first app-connected biofeedback vibrator. Its sensors measure your pelvic floor movements during each session, so you can see your pleasure as data. Over the years, our community has helped build the largest dataset on female sexual function.

Our mission hasn't wavered in those 11 years. Long before anyone called a vibrator "smart" or "AI," we believed that knowledge is pleasure. We still do.

Insights is the next step. A graph can show that a session lasted 3 minutes. Insights can tell you that's 52% longer than your usual session, and that your intensity held steady on a day you tagged as low activity. It's free for everyone with a Lioness, and it's available now.

What Insights taught me about my own body

My best-rated session in the Lioness app lasted almost 19 minutes. It was a slow build on a Sunday night, and I gave it five stars. I hadn't thought about it in months, until the app pointed out that sessions like that almost never happen for me anymore.

My orgasms are as strong as ever. I'm just rushing to get there.

Here's the card that showed up in my Data tab:

Chase the 5-star rhythm

Your best-rated session was 18m54s of slow building with visual cues, and it landed on a Sunday night. That length and timing are almost never in your sessions now.

Tip for Next Time: Carve out 20 quiet minutes on a weekend evening and let yourself build without rushing.

Single sessions get their own read, too. After one short session, Insights wrote:

Quick and steady

3-minute session with contractions right around your usual, and a quick orgasm at 68.9 gF. (gF, or gram-force, is how Lioness measures contraction strength).Your tags say low activity, but your intensity held solid, nothing rushed about it, just efficient.

I'm taking the tip. I need to slow down and carve out more me time.

Where to find Insights

Insights lives in two places. The Data tab shows your latest trends, comparing your last 5 sessions with the ones before, followed by an Insights card and a tip for next time. Tap any session to see its Session Analysis: a short summary, plus how that session's length, orgasm length, and orgasm strength compare with your baseline.

There's no score to beat. The arrows show change, not grades, and a dip isn't a problem. Each tip is an idea to try, not a rule.

Getting your first insights

Insights unlocks after 5 sessions. Until then, the Data tab shows how many sessions you have left.

Three sessions in, two to go before the first insight unlocks.

After that, the more you log, the sharper Insights gets. Mark your orgasms so Insights can see what they look like and how they change. Rate each session so it knows which ones you loved. Then add tags for things like your mood, your setting, or what you tried. You can pick from the tag bank in the app or create your own. Over time, Insights can show you which tags turn up in your best sessions, and which don't.

How we built Lioness Insights with AI and biofeedback data

Our technical team drew on more than a decade of work with women's sexual health data. Insights pulls out the statistics we've found most closely linked to arousal and orgasm. Our customized AI then looks for trends across them and across your tags, which often reveal what helps or gets in the way of a good session.

The science underneath has been tested. A 2022 study in The Journal of Sexual Medicine validated how Lioness detects orgasms from pelvic floor muscle contractions. Sexual neuroscientist Dr. Jim Pfaus and pelvic floor physical therapist Dee Hartmann led the research. Lioness was also featured in a 2026 review of femtech for pelvic floor and sexual health in Urogynecology, a peer-reviewed journal.
