A private health almanac · one person, one record
Almanac is a single-user personal health record. One person — its owner — pulls together their own medical documents, lab values, wearables, and a short daily check-in into one private, searchable place. It is not a product you can sign up for. There is one account, one database, one body being tracked.
The thesis is simple. Your health history is scattered across patient portals, PDF emails, phone photos of discharge papers, and whatever your ring or watch kept this week. None of those pieces talk to each other, and none of them keep a long view. Almanac is the long view.
— WHAT IT DOES —
Documents. Upload a lab PDF, a visit note, an imaging report, a vaccine record. Almanac extracts the text, maps the numbers to a canonical biomarker dictionary, converts units, and files the document with a provider and a date. Every value points back to the source page it came from.
Trends. Every quantitative marker becomes a line over time, with the lab's reference range as a band and an “optimal” range from the dictionary. Values flag H or L when they're out of range; the line is drawn like a technical plate, not a dashboard.
Biological age. When the required inputs are present, Almanac computes PhenoAge from blood work and plots it against chronological age and Oura's cardiovascular age for a slow comparison across methods.
Oura, if you connect it. Read-only via Oura's official API: sleep, readiness, activity, HRV, resting heart rate, body temperature, cardiovascular age. Access tokens are stored encrypted. The data lives next to the lab work so it can overlay on any biomarker trend.
Daily check-in. Thirty seconds: energy, mood, body — each on a 1–5 scale, plus a short note and optional tags. The rule is log-before-you-look — the check-in is taken before Oura's scores are shown that day, so what you felt stays independent of what was measured.
Felt vs. measured. The compare view lines the two up on a shared 0–100 axis — your felt score against Oura's — day by day, so you can see where your sense of a day agrees with the ring and where it drifts. Calibration, not scoring.
AI “so what?” A short monthly — and daily refresh — report that reads the gathered input and answers the one honest question: given everything on record, what should the owner actually pay attention to? Strengths, things to watch, and suggested next conversations with a clinician. The report is cached and only regenerates when something new has landed.
Texting interface. A small token-authed external API lets a messaging bot ask the day's check-in questions one at a time over SMS and, after the check-in is in, text back the day's scores and the current recommendations.
— WHAT IT IS NOT —
Almanac is not a medical device, not a diagnostic tool, and not a replacement for a clinician. It does not score your health, it does not sell data, and it does not have other users to compare you to. Everything it says is a reading of your own record, written to help you ask better questions at your next visit.
— PRIVACY —
Everything lives in the owner's own private database and file storage, behind authentication. Third-party services (Oura, AI extraction, infrastructure) act as processors only. Full details on the privacy policy and terms.
