@gabrielly_lunkes there is a few solutions on the market, but many of them have barriers for the users.
1. There are calorie counters (people get tired of those quickly, it can work for the short-term results only if you are very motivated and know what you're doing).
2. AI-assistants (like Noom), products like that had replaced human talent with AI, it allowed them to scale but compromised the quality of the service. People are unique and require personalized approach.
At SlimU we address both points. There is no need to count calories, just snap a photo of the food to receive the feedback from a very qualified nutritionist. You'll get exactly what you need to achieve your health goals (vs. cookie cutter approach).
Hi ProductHunt community!
Thanks for your help with the launch @kevin.
Let me share some background with you about the app.
Why SlimU?
Problem:
1 out of 5 adults in the US has obesity and it’s getting worse.
Current solutions are not enough:
* Dietitians are prohibitively expensive (~$200/hr on Thumbtack)
* In many instances you are asked to count calories, macros etc. (I've burnt out in a month)
* Sometimes you’re offered an ai-assistant instead of a top-notch professional (Noom)
Solution:
* We’ve hand-picked the best nutrition experts to help you achieve any health goals by improving nutrition
* There is no need to count calories. Just snap a photo of your food at the end of the day and receive valuable feedback from a pro.
* Healthy habits over strict diets. We’ll help you to make the right food choices and develop healthy eating habits for long-lasting results.
Why Now?
* We’ve been working from home in the last few months. Did you folks notice any bodyweight gains recently (I did! And I didn’t like it.)
* Obesity dramatically increases your risk of severe illness from COVID-19
What’s inside?
* Access to a registered dietitian (chat) + FREE initial consultation
* Virtual diary (free)
* Progress check: % of approved foods, bodyweight etc.
* No discount for PH community as we’ve already made it affordable for everyone with a FREE 15min initial consultation 🙂
As we grow our awesome team of dietitians and help more people we have many avenues to grow as a business. Given all the tech trends, how do you think diet coaching can evolve in a few years?
