This looks great, I'm just hesitant to sign up with any startup-y looking company these days that says they're going to be around for my lifetime. You might get more traction from people like me if you guarantee that our data will be easily exportable and testing methods reproducible.
I imagine the testing methods might be your bread & butter, but it's so hard to trust any claims if the results aren't auditable. I think about how these results will matter a lot more to me in 40-50 years, and how unlikely it is for ANY business to last that long.
- elamje 3y agoYeah, our internal engineering team in the US are members (me included) that want the same thing! Do you have any suggestions on file format with the ideal schema? I've done deep dives on PubMed and GitHub but haven't found a great answer for all use cases. I personally track a lot of my stuff in a spreadsheet right now but am on a personal hunt for a standard format
- hn_throwaway_99 3y agoI wouldn't really be concerned about the longevity of the business as long as I can get just a print out of the data, which I'm assuming is a pretty obvious feature because I'd want to share results with my doctor. Note that, on an individual level, the format of the export really doesn't matter much with the rise of LLMs. I had some past bloodwork results in PDF format, and I was amazed how I could just copy and paste the test results into ChatGPT and it was able to correctly parse and interpret the results. Others may have privacy concerns but I LLMs being able to read and parse a PDF dump of bloodwork is going to be an easy commodity.
