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?
