Overview
Ellie is an iOS app that delivers a structured, week-by-week maintenance plan for people tapering off or stopping GLP-1 medications. The app transforms published research and real-world clinic data into an actionable timeline that predicts appetite rebound and weight fluctuations, with safeguards to catch small gains early.
Key Features
- The After Plan: A personalized timeline that maps the first six months after the final dose, highlighting when water-weight jumps, food noise peaks, and high-risk windows occur, along with specific actions for each phase.
- Food Noise SOS: A ten-minute intervention protocol designed to interrupt cravings and obsessive food thoughts. Users can log episodes and see charted progress showing the noise fading over weeks.
- Drift Detection: Users set a maximum weight line, and the app monitors the 7-day rolling average rather than daily weigh-ins. It issues gentle alerts if the trend rises by around four pounds, prompting a tighten week instead of a restart.
- Protein and Strength Floor: Simple daily protein targets and 20-minute home strength sessions are included to preserve muscle mass while maintaining weight loss.
- Prescriber Export: The app compiles a clean one-page summary of the user's medication regimen, current trends, and forward plan, ready to bring to a doctor appointment.
Target Audience
This product suits current or former GLP-1 users who are looking for a data-driven, nonjudgmental framework to retain their weight loss after stopping or reducing their medication.
