Introducing the Agentic Health Record.
Your EHR knows what happened in your appointments. Your AHR knows what's happening the rest of the time.
How much pain, how many injuries, symptoms, illnesses do you deal with on a regular basis that the healthcare system has no idea about? What does it actually *feel* like to live in your body?
People turn to BodyBuddy for coaching through their health goals like losing weight or gaining muscle. That daily conversation over time out to hold extremely rich data for behavior change.. what you did, what got in the way or is bothering you, and why.
Your health record falls out naturally from this conversation. BodyBuddy is curious. It asks, keeps track, and maps everything you've told it onto a 3D mirror of your body that you can explore. Every dot has its own story. Each one feeds back into BodyBuddy to coach you better, and you can share any of it with a doctor or professional to loop them in.
It's like Google Earth meets Wikipedia for your health.

Today weβre shipping workout logging that feels like writing in Apple Notes.
Write your workout however you want, then text it to BodyBuddy.
BodyBuddy will structure it and visualize the exercises, sets, reps, muscles worked.
Every exercise is individually tracked over time.

Itβs been 10 months since βGoals with ChatGPTβ.
If you made this pull up plan back then, itβs been collecting dust in your chat history .
BodyBuddy takes any plan and texts you every day until you actually do it.
Starting with the exact pull-up plan from this post:

introducing BodyBuddy's biggest update ever:
We built an ai coach that comes to your doctor's appointment with you.
You know how it usually goes... you listen, you nod, you forget half of it by the parking lot.
Not anymore.
very impressed by @BodyBuddyCoach
the iMessage first experience is super well done and shows how different an interface can feel when it's in a format that is reserved in your mind for more personal communications
not too dissimilar from my perception of @openclaw in Telegram and Discord

This is probably one of my favorite bits of software I've ever built.
Using the Dynamic Island while chatting with AI fits so perfectly. It's obviously a better UX the moment you use it.
The @linq_app team wrote up how we pulled it off π
A lot of people asked us how @BodyBuddyCoach and @franjohn21 built the Dynamic Island feature. So, we wrote a blog post walking through it π

Replying to @BodyBuddyCoach
@BodyBuddyCoach for the win!
I have been using @franjohn21's new app for the last few weeks, and I bothered him until he let me invest.
He's raising his pre-seed round; it's had the best UI/UX of any health app I've used.
I think it's clearly a big opportunity; if any angels want an intro, lmk.

i think we found the missing UI for AI agents in iMessage.
and it's been staring us in the face this whole time...
the challenge is you constantly have to ask what the ai is doing.
so i started experimenting with live updating the Dynamic Island while you chat:

introducing @BodyBuddyCoach - an accountability coach that texts you everyday for your health & nutrition.
here's why I'm building it:
three years ago I was the most out of shape I'd ever been. sluggish, low energy. I figured it was just getting older.
i hired an accountability coach. every morning he'd text: "what's your plan for food and exercise today?" every evening: "how'd it go?"
within a year I lost 25 lbs and was in the best shape of my life. just having someone asking every single day made me actually stick to my word and stay consistent.
but it cost $300/month. for most people that's simply too expensive to try. I started wondering: what if AI could replicate the same daily accountability without the steep price tag?
i honestly wasn't sure. but one early user told us it was "the best success I've ever had in this area." another lost 7 lbs in the first month and said they "couldn't recommend it highly enough".
so I'm going all in on BodyBuddy. and my original coach loved the idea so much he joined me.
i want to end by saying: you're perfect the way you are. but if you've been wanting to lose a few pounds, get in better shape, or just take your health more seriously, it would mean a lot if you gave BodyBuddy a shot. And if you know someone this could help, please send it their way. π

After months of π©Έ blood, π
sweat, π tears I FINALLY launched the iOS version of BodyBuddy the App Store to help people lose weight and get in shape.
If you want to go on a weight loss or fitness journey this New Years I really believe this will be the unlock you need to stay consistent.

Everyone needs a coach.
My fitness journey:
- Was an exceptional high school 200m, 400m runner. 21.9 in the 200m.
- Ran division 1 track for two years. Very average. Didnβt train hard. Partied. Ran 48 seconds in 400m. Wanted to run 46 but didnβt dedicate myself.
- Got fat from 20-24. Drank so much. Ate horribly. Didnβt work out. Brain went to mush. Was drunk or hung over most of time.
- 24-30 casually worked out. Zero program. Ate horribly. Didnβt know difference of protein and carb. Fat. Slept horribly. Snored. Felt hungover all the time even without booze. Carb hangovers. Did well in business because I didn't drink and was focused on making $. Looked like a slob.
- 30-34. Hired nutritionist (@MyBodyTutor ) and trainer (central athlete). Life changed. Became an animal. Looked great. Felt great. More ambitious in life. Calmer. Pretty ripped. Don't look like a slob. Get hurt still but have great routines and habits. Diet is mostly good.
Regrets:
- I blew it in college. I wish I dedicated myself to sport until junior year. Then quit to pursue biz. So fun. Only chance you have to do that. I have an uncle Rico moment daily about what could have been.
- 21-30 I was a disgusting pig. I ruined the compounding of fitness. Had to recreate good habits. Luckily I got a wife but man I had such little self respect and discipline. Shocked any girl looked at me.
- The only reason most people arenβt fit is lack of discipline. I wish I had that earlier on because it carries over to other parts of life. Would be richer, fitter, happier had it all compounded.
- Track? TRACK? Wtf i should have played football. I was explosive and big. BLEW IT.
Learnings:
- If you're not where you want to be, GET A COACH. I prefer remote coaches. I don't need technique help. Someone who writes me workouts then i remote back and we make goals together. A $99/year app like Ladders can work great (I use that now). But in my opinion, a real person is best for accountability.
- Get a diet coach like @MyBodyTutor. Even just a month. Will help.
- Long distance running is my fav. But gets me hurt the most. And makes me look skinny fat.
- Heavy lifting makes me look amazing.
- Walking + weights 3 days + 1-2 days of running or sport is my jam.
- Sprinting is awesome. Do it.
- Have a goal every quarter. A race, body fat %...anything with a definitive measuring stick and end goal.
- HAVE A SYSTEM. You workout at the same time each day. Schedule's built around it. You walk to get to places. Food is ready to roll. Will power isn't involved in the decisions.
