Everything that matters. Nothing that doesn't.

Case study · from problem to launch

Your Apple Watch knows everything about your body. And yet, you don't know how you're doing.

  1. — 01 / The spark

    Bryan Johnson charges $1,500 a month.

    I've worn an Apple Watch for almost a decade. At some point I realized: I have data on sleep, workouts, HRV, VO2 max, steps — the full infrastructure to understand my longevity trajectory.

    And still I look at isolated metrics, with no narrative. Bryan Johnson charges over a thousand dollars a month for something my iPhone already measures silently. Why is that signal locked inside separate charts?

  2. — 02 / The user problem

    More data isn't more clarity.

    The user doesn't want another dashboard. They want a simple answer to `how am I doing, overall?`.

    Longevity apps are either too scientific — demanding obsessive discipline, spreadsheets and supplements — or shallow gamification. The middle is missing: a daily, clear, non-judgmental signal built on data that already exists.

  3. — 03 / The concept

    One number. Every day.

    Longevity Score auto-computed from Apple Health. Sleep, activity, recovery and stress combined into a single number — not to rank, but to make the trend visible.

    Optional daily check-ins for the habits sensors can't see: hydration, strength, sunlight, reading. The app is the mirror — not the judge.

  4. — 04 / Validation

    Ninety days. Five stubborn testers.

    I tested with myself for 90 days and with 5 friends obsessed with longevity. Confirmed: the daily number drives more reflection than any chart.

    When the score drops, the user knows why — because the app ties the number back to the week's behaviors. When it rises, they know what to repeat.

  5. — 05 / Built with AI

    HealthKit is hostile. AI tamed it.

    Native iOS in SwiftUI + HealthKit + SwiftData, in daily sessions with Claude Code and Codex inside Blitz. AI generated HealthKit adapters, every score calculation with its tests, the check-in flows and the trend UI.

    I kept control of what actually matters: the score formula, the copy, and the motivation curve. That's where human expertise lives — the rest is boilerplate AI writes in minutes.
