There's leakiness.

But we are seeing a huge narrative about personal agency with health and personalized health.

These are things that I am seeing from almost every health tech company in the last couple of months.

And to that point, a lot of that is because our healthcare system is broken.

And there are a lot of people out there with chronic illnesses, suffering with my own chronic illness.

We ran a story recently about how a journalist with POTS and other fatigue illnesses have kind of been hacking their fitness trackers to more serve their needs.

So, you know, people are doing this already.

People are going to Reddit for advice, which is also just not,

ideal.

But, you know, I too have been in the PMOS subreddits just looking for information because what was available to me was not sufficient.

Right.

And if you are struggling with your health and you are finding that the healthcare system is not something that you can easily navigate, that you're struggling with,

I can't say that this is not a useful tool because I have found it to be useful.

And I have also found it to be doo-doo.

It is kind of a Wild West out there.

But, you know, I've had a lot of Verge readers write in as beta testers of this particular app saying, you know, I don't like everything.

It's not perfect.

But of all of the ones I've tested, I found most value out of it.

And the thing I will say is that your mileage is going to vary.

It is going to depend on you being engaged, interacting with it, feeding it information.
