Hey Indie Hackers! 👋
I'm excited to share GLP AI with this community. We launched to solve a real problem I saw happening with GLP-1 medications (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, etc.).
The Problem
Millions are now on these weight-loss medications, but there's a dark side nobody talks about: people weren't just losing weight—they were losing muscle mass, battling debilitating side effects (nausea, fatigue, constipation), and navigating their journey completely alone.
I watched people quit their medications because of nausea they didn't know how to manage. Others lost significant muscle alongside fat, ending up weaker despite the number on the scale going down. They'd Google symptoms at 2 AM with no clear answers.
The Solution
GLP AI is a specialized mobile app (iOS & Android) that acts as a 24/7 AI companion for GLP-1 users. Unlike MyFitnessPal or general fitness trackers, we focus on:
• Protein optimization to prevent muscle loss (the dreaded "Ozempic Face")
• Side effect tracking correlated with medication levels in your bloodstream
• AI chat for instant answers about nutrition, dosing, and symptoms
• Medication level estimation so you know when you'll hit peak levels
• Smart shot timing recommendations to minimize side effects
Early Results
We're now helping thousands of users optimize their GLP-1 journey. 5.0 rating with 500+ reviews. What started as a simple tracking tool evolved into a full AI companion.
Why I'm Here
I'd love to connect with other founders in the health/AI space and learn from this community. Happy to share insights on:
Building AI-powered health apps
- Competing in crowded markets (there are other GLP-1 apps, but none with our AI depth)
- Navigating healthcare/medical content carefully
- Freemium models in health tech
Would love any feedback or questions! 🚀
Congrats on the launch, looks solid. What channels are you experimenting with to get early users?
This really stands out especially how clearly you’re centering user well-being instead of just optimization. Building Sanctuary Faith right now (very different space, but also very human-focused), and I’ve been learning how much responsibility comes with using AI where people are vulnerable. Appreciate how intentional you’re being about navigating health content carefully. Congrats on the early traction.
