Recovery support designed for you

After joint replacement, the real work begins at home. JointEffort supports you through the acute recovery phase (weeks 1–6) and into active rehabilitation — with daily structure, guidance, and reassurance.

Medically reviewed by Dr. Jessica Hooper, MD

You leave the hospital with a stack of papers and a follow-up in 6 weeks...

  • • Is this amount of pain normal?
  • • Am I doing these exercises right?
  • • When should I call my doctor?
  • • How do I know I'm on track between visits?

How JointEffort helps

Everything you need for confident recovery, in one place.

Daily Check-Ins

A few quick questions each day about pain, swelling, and how you're feeling. Takes about 2 minutes. Your responses help track your recovery and alert you if something needs attention.

Guided Morning Routine

Tap one button to get started and the app walks you through check-in, medications, and exercises in the right order. No thinking required — just follow along.

Personalized PT Exercises

Your physical therapy exercises are matched to your surgery, recovery phase, and how you've been feeling. Clear instructions show you exactly what to do. The plan adapts as you heal.

Grace — Your Recovery Companion

Grace greets you each morning with a personalized message. On hard days, she's gentle. On good days, she celebrates your progress. She's always there to answer questions.

Information on Tap

Any time you have a question, you have a chat companion to answer: one to give you friendly companionship and general advice, and one to give you specific medically approved answers to medical questions.

Safety Alerts

If something looks concerning — like signs of surgical site infection (SSI) or deep vein thrombosis (DVT) — JointEffort tells you immediately and guides you on what to do. Your caregiver and surgical practice are notified automatically.

Caregiver Connection

Add a family member or friend so they can see how you're doing. They receive alerts when something needs attention and can check your progress anytime.
