Longevity tools, the potential of this business model and which ones to use?
Since I've been watching Bryan Johnson's experiments on his body, I've also become interested in tools that help to improve life. (Mainly hardware, but also software.)
In my opinion, more and more people from more developed countries want to improve the quality of their lives, and therefore they are willing to invest quite a lot in these things.
I can see it predominantly in the US market, UK, Canada, Germany, France, and possibly Sweden.
Do you have personal experience with any longevity accessories?
Have you spotted any positive influence?
If you know more than I listed below, feel free to share. đ
(I often listen to podcasts and so far I have my list of options on the market and have also seen some of them on the PH):

Love this! Iâve been inspired by Bryan Johnson tooâand I think software plays a big role alongside hardware in longevity.
I built Habithook, a habit tracker with social challenges, global rankings, and daily goals to keep you consistent (and a little competitive đ).
Made for professionalsâminimalist, clean UI, no fluff, and definitely doesnât feel like itâs for kids.
Itâs like having a smart, supportive peer group in your pocket.
Launching soon on Product HuntâHere is Notify
Would love your thoughtsâcan software like this rival wearables in long-term impact?
@prahemant001 What is meant by "social challenges"? Like you can compete against somebody in the leaderboard?
I am a fan of having metrics from these smart devices the only downside I can see is that they are relatively pricy and can be lost so easily (e.g. small ring).
@busmark_w_nika When I say "social challenges," I mean you can create or join habit-based challenges with your friends or even the whole community â like âWorkout daily for 7 daysâ or âRead 30 minutes every day.â
Youâll be able to track each otherâs progress and yes, compete on a leaderboard to see who stays the most consistent. I wanted to make building habits more fun â and a little friendly competition always helps! đȘ
@prahemant001 I think that including not only friends but also "competing with strangers" or competing team vs team would also be an interesting đ„ concept.
@busmark_w_nika Correct
Use Oura. Love it. Seeing the influence your sleep and activities has on your well-being is great feedback.
You can create positive feedback loops with tools like this.
@matt__mcdonagh I do not have a personal experience with this but my friend has and is like a negative placebo for him. He feels great until he sees the metrics from the ring (e.g. something indicates lower levels or too high levels and he suddenly reacts: "OMG, I do not feel well." :D LIke chill, because these gadgets are good but can inappropriately frighten people.) :D
