Invite-only beta
After 40, your body starts sending signals. With a team of AI specialists you can do more than fix what's there — you can reach a level of health you've never had before: by system, without rushing, one habit at a time.
For iPhone. Free during the beta.
Before, health could slip: no one taught you how to eat well, there was no plan, no time, no motivation. Now the knowledge, the plan and the daily follow-through sit with your team. Your part is the habits.
A gym is a whole project: find one, get there, new people, a coach, a program — and feeling awkward about where you are right now. At home, none of that.
AI specialists, not people. You talk to the Coach, and it brings in the others when needed.
Gets to know you and builds a program weeks ahead: phases, dated goals, daily targets. Once a week checks it's working and explains what changes.
With you every day: training, food, sleep, measurements, answers to your questions.
Turns your targets into food: recipes from what’s in your kitchen, a week’s menu, a shopping list, what to order when you eat out.
Logs meals from a photo or a line, workouts, measurements, water and supplements. You barely notice it.
Understands what's in a photo: a meal, a label, a document.
Finds prices, availability and nutrition facts in stores near you.
Something wrong in the app, or an idea? Tech support writes it up for our team, sends it once you say yes, and tells you when it’s done.
Morning
Today's plan and a line about your night, if you wear a watch or ring. Nothing you could read off the screen yourself.
Midday
Snap your plate — the dish, calories and protein are logged, and the home screen shows what's left for the day.
After a workout
Mark your workout done in the app and your team reviews how it went compared with last time and sets the next weight for every exercise. If something hurt, it deals with that first.
Evening
Short on protein? Your team suggests a dinner. On track? You won't hear a thing.
Sunday
The Methodologist decides to keep going or adjust — and says why.
Your team writes in the app and sends a notification to your phone.
Deadline goals — waist, weight, body fat. Daily goals — protein, water, calories. Your team keeps you on track without pressure: it suggests revising a goal that isn't working, and always tells you the good news.
A photo or one line — "oatmeal with banana and two eggs" — and the dish, calories, protein, fat and carbs are in your journal. It's an estimate, not a lab test. Your day is measured against your own targets, not averages.
Sleep stages, overnight heart rate and your sleep debt over two weeks — from your Apple Watch, a ring that writes to Apple Health, or just your iPhone. Your Coach starts with the why — a late dinner, a glass of wine, a hard session — and what to do today. The charts come after.
Stages and heart rate are your device's estimates, and the Coach says so.
Any watch or ring that writes to Apple Health on your iPhone will do. Your Coach reviews every session: what kind it was (intervals, tempo, long or easy — you can correct it) and your pace against your usual pace at the same heart rate. Your program is built around what you already do, not a template.
Already train seriously? The team doesn't teach you — it keeps an eye on your numbers.
Injuries, limits, equipment, your routine, what you agreed on last week. You don't have to repeat yourself. Everything your team remembers is visible in the app — edit it, pin it or delete it.
Surgeries and injuries, foods you avoid, how you eat, where and with what you train — it all lives in your profile. Some of it you add yourself, some your team picks up from conversation. And every specialist takes it into account.
It's all visible in the app — edit it or remove it any time.
Goals, your program, foods to avoid, journal entries — almost everything changes in conversation. Say it in your own words; the right specialist does it and tells you what changed.
"I want to lose 5 cm off my waist by summer"
the Methodologist updates your goals and targets and explains why.
"No more sugar for me"
the Methodologist adds the rule, and the Chef won't suggest recipes with sugar.
"Delete yesterday's snack"
the Journal removes it and your day's totals update.
"My morning notification didn't arrive"
Tech support writes it up and tells you when it's fixed.
Everything that changes is visible in the app — your program, goals, memory and journal. Sign-in, notifications, connections, language and theme live in Settings.
Your team relies on the findings of scientific research, not on fads: reviews of dozens of studies, clinical trials, and guidelines from the WHO and professional bodies. Every finding is checked against the paper itself, and each one links to it. There are more than 1,500 in the library today — on protein, sleep, strength training, mobility and stretching, memory and thinking, alcohol, supplements and popular myths — and it keeps growing.
Research findings describe people on average; your doctor knows more about you. AkMe doesn't diagnose or treat.

| — | What it gives | What's missing |
|---|---|---|
| AI chatChatGPT and the like | A smart answer to any question | Memory that lasts months: after 3–4 weeks the thread sprawls, details get lost and numbers go wrong. Your data — only what you paste in. Initiative: you always write first. It may cite sources, but whether the paper backs the answer, and for whom, is yours to check. |
| Calorie and step tracker | Accurate counts and charts | Someone to tell you what to do about it. You log and work it out yourself |
| Weight-loss program | A course, lessons and meal plans | Training and sleep. Flexibility for your life. Usually one goal — a number on the scale by a date |
| Personal trainer | A person beside you at the session | Food, sleep and the days between sessions. By appointment, and expensive |
| Nutrition or health consultant | An expert review and recommendations | Day-to-day guidance: between meetings you're on your own |
| AkMe | A team of AI specialists runs your training, food, sleep and habits as one system, every day, and writes first. It remembers you and sees your journal, measurements and sleep; totals come from software, not the AI. It draws on 1,500+ research findings, each checked against its paper: Works, Doesn't work, Mixed evidence or Harmful, and for whom. The source sits under the answer when the team explains why. | — |

Akme (ἀκμή) is Greek for prime — the peak of one's powers. Ancient writers placed a person's akme at around forty. And the "Me" in the name is you: the team works with you, and you build yourself.
In a chat everything lives in the thread: after 3–4 weeks it sprawls, details get lost and numbers go wrong. In AkMe every entry — a meal, a workout, a measurement, a night — is stored in a database. Daily totals, trends, goal progress and body fat are calculated by software, not by the AI, so the numbers don't drift over time; your team reads the finished numbers and explains them. And it writes first instead of waiting for you to ask.
There are two kinds. Your own numbers — calories, protein, weight, trends — are calculated by software from your entries, not by the AI, so they don't drift. Recommendations — how much protein, how much sleep, whether to do strength training — come from a library of research findings: reviews of studies, clinical trials, and guidelines from the WHO and professional bodies. Every finding is checked against its paper, and you can open the source right under the answer. When the evidence is thin or conflicting, your team says so.
No. AkMe is a training, nutrition and routine aid, not a medical device. It does not diagnose or treat anything. If you have a medical condition or injury, or are pregnant, talk to your doctor before changing your diet or training.
No. AI specialists work with you. There's no human in the conversation.
No. Your team builds the program from where you are: your experience, limits and time. Timelines are realistic, and the load grows gradually.
Yes. The exercise catalog includes barbell, kettlebell, cable and machine exercises. Tell the Methodologist where you train and it will plan around your place and equipment.
No. Everything works without one, and your iPhone alone gives the team your time in bed. A watch or ring that writes to Apple Health adds sleep stages, overnight heart rate and your runs, rides and swims.
Yes. Add your surgeries and injuries to your profile — what happened and when — and the Methodologist picks exercises and load around them. If something hurts now, your team deals with that first and tells you to see a doctor if it's serious. We don't do rehabilitation.
Yes. Mark it in your profile — the list covers the 14 major allergens, and you can add any other food. The Chef and the Coach won't suggest it, and the Journal warns you if it turns up in an entry. It's a help, not a guarantee: with a severe allergy, always check ingredients yourself.
Yes. Choose how you eat — vegetarian, pescatarian, vegan, halal, kosher or your own way — and recipes and menus will follow it.
No. Just say so — your team factors it into your plan, no lectures. If you want to cut back, it'll help you set your own limit — but only if you ask.
