Co-founder here. Five years ago, my mom was diagnosed with a chronic, incurable neurological disease. Her doctors were great at prescribing pharmaceuticals but her real quality-of-life breakthroughs came from posts in forums and patient communities, from other people suffering with the same disease. Many of these breakthroughs were supplements and lifestyle changes to mitigate her symptoms — things with insufficient profit margins to justify running the trials that convince conservative doctors. I took a data-driven approach to helping her feel better. We religiously tracked symptoms in a spreadsheet, tried interventions that seemed to be helping others, and measured her progression the best we could. It was hard. Eureka is the app I wish existed on day 1 of her disease. We're starting in Long Covid but will expand to other chronic conditions soon. If you think Eureka could be useful for your care journey, I'd love to hear from you.

@zain Hi all! I'm Noah, the other co-founder of Eureka. 👋 After seeing firsthand family and friends struggle with chronic disease, it became obvious that there's a huge need, and a huge opportunity. Modern medicine has few answers and no cures for many of these diseases (especially Long Covid). On the other hand, patients know a lot. They're reading research papers, they're trying things, they're self-organizing, and in some cases they're even able to figure out how to get better on their own. But they're using Twitter, Slack, and Reddit, and don't have the tools to really start generating new research-grade knowledge. We're here to arm the rebels. We have two simple goals 1. 💪 Make it easier to help yourself get better. Easily learn what treatments are working on people with similar symptoms as you, with more data on what works than you can find in even the best studies. Then, use the most powerful tools for self-experimentation available so you can see what works for you. 2. 🎁 Make it easy to give back. Every time someone tries a new protocol, it's an opportunity for everyone to learn, but everyone's currently operating in isolation. Everyone wants to help the community, but it's hard to plug in to the larger system and contribute. Today's launch is a big moment for us. The Eureka Hub, with the Eureka App, make it dramatically easier for people to feel better. We're starting small, but we can't wait to see how the community responds, and as people add their data, it only gets better from here. Long Covid is a true crisis, a mass-disabling event that's impacting millions but flying under the radar because people are tired of talking about Covid. Millions are out of work and housebound, many of whom were young, healthy and active beforehand. We hope to play a role helping spread the great knowledge already within the community, and accelerating the discovery of badly needed cures. Thanks for reading, excited to hear what you think! 💜

I know a few people struggling with Long Covid, and have recommended Eureka to them. So far the results have been really impressive. It's a super beautifully-designed app too!
