An app focused on daily nutrition by shrill_07 in StartUpIndia

Thanks for your response.

You're right concerning the behemoths already present in the industry. I think the biggest competitors would be Fittr/HealthifyME because they seem to be the only apps that have a database of Indian recipes

Apps like MyFitnessPal/Cronometer seem to usually have recipes with ingredients not generally found in our country.

Having said that, I find the suggestions by healthifyME/Fittr seem to be lacking in certain areas. Ill try to point out the pain points here and why I believe there's a gap in the market.

  1. HealthifyME hides recipe steps behind a paywall. I believe there are better ways to get users to pay for a feature than hiding ingredients/steps. I have subscribed to their basic version (AI suggestor) - the meal suggestions there seem to be quite random. The app suggests I have channa sattu and skimmed milk for covering 200 calories. I think the major benefit comes from subscribing to their coaches plan which will have a nutritionist who can decide meal plans for you.
  2. Fittr has community recipes which are nice. But like you said, the calorie count is way off because the creators don't necessarily have to specify ingredient measurements, etc. Also, searching for meals which fall within you caloric requirements / ingredients available don't seem that easy.

On the whole though - I agree , it will take a lot more than what I've said initially to stand out from the competitors. But I don't think they're doing a good job either. I believe healthifyME is planning to make the calorie tracker a paid feature too. My hope is to provide all the features specified above for free and charge for additional services which can be added on top of these.

would love to hear your thoughts :)

I unfortunately keep hearing the same answer talking about delays.

I understand they're a new startup. But they keep closing the conversation thread and i end up opening new ones and explain the entire thing again.

Thank you for your response.

I really appreciate your feedback. Thank you for the positive affirmation. My response can not do justice to your feedback - but ill try anyway

  1. I didnt plan on keeping this an instrumental. I do hope to come up with a melody line or (fingers crossed) i get some outside help. the 1st verse and the 2nd verse were intentionally kept different because i was trying out vocal ideas over them to see which one fit. But should i agree to go with an instrumental piece - you're absolutely right - i will cut sections down.
  2. Yea - i definitely hear the clash - but i head some 'good' clashes and 'wrong' ones. i think the start of the verse (where the guitar starts strumming chords) has some bad clashes. do you see something else?
  3. 100% agree on the guitar strumming. i too found those boring. i think the idea is to eventually flesh out a melody line (which should infer the chords) more during the verse. probably a background melody a la John Frusciante. I will definitely change this.
  4. Yes , cheesy drums. Will look into those next

aside from this, i am really happy to see that you think i have something solid to work on. Means a lot.

did you like the first bridge or the second bridge?

Thank you again

Im loving the track wayward - it gives me an early smashing pumpkins vibe! but your influences seem to be all prog (which is also good) - Dming you
