About Palmly

What is Palmly?

Palmly is a modern take on the ancient art of palmistry. Using advanced image recognition, we analyze the lines, mounts, and features of your hands to generate a personalized personality profile and actionable guidance.

Our goal is to offer a moment of introspection—a mirror that invites you to reflect on your tendencies, strengths, and areas for growth.

How it works

  1. Upload photos of both your left and right hands (palm facing the camera).
  2. AI analysis extracts observable features: line depth, curvature, mount prominence, finger proportions, and more. Each feature is assigned a confidence score.
  3. Profile generation synthesizes these features into a personality sketch, focusing on high-confidence observations.
  4. Action plan (optional) combines your palm analysis with your personal context to suggest practical micro-actions for the coming months.

Our approach

Palmly draws from general palmistry traditions without claiming adherence to any single school. We prioritize observable features over esoteric interpretations, and we calibrate our confidence levels honestly: if a feature is unclear, we say so.

The AI is instructed to use hedging language for uncertain observations and to never fabricate details. High-confidence features drive the analysis; low-confidence ones are acknowledged but not used to draw conclusions.
