One thing

I’m sick of looking at all these dashboards.

I’ve hooked up all my personal stuff. I’ve got my Whoop. When I talk to people, I show them. I say, look, I have my Whoop set up, and Whoop tracks your sleep and your exercise.

And then I wear a glucose monitor, just kind of for giggles. That basically tracks what you eat and when you eat it and what impact it has on your body. You’ve got to put one on every week or so. It tracks your glucose spikes, if you do have them or not.

Stelo and Whoop, they have their own apps, and they’ll tell you all about it, and they want to keep you on the app. Because that’s their business.

What I see is that all these apps are going away, over time. I just want the data. I just want the data from Stelo, put it on my laptop. I want the data from Whoop.

I used to have all these dashboards then, correlating them. I’d look for patterns. And then what I started doing is, fuck, I’m sick of looking at all these dashboards.

So now I ask it every week. What’s one thing I can do for my health, based off all the data you have? So I call it one thing.

And it tells me, go to bed. Don’t stay up till 2am, you stayed up till two. Little things like that. Or don’t eat this particular thing late at night. So it’s just one thing, one thing you want.

So you feed it all this information and then you ask it.

I’ve had those conversations with business owners. Most of the business owners, they have the Instagram account, or social media. They have the retail app, they have Stripe for money. So you basically feed all their data onto their own laptop and then you can ask it questions.

A lot of people don’t get that yet. That’s pretty early days.
