Our science-based approach
Shotsy is designed to make patient-generated GLP-1 tracking data easier to review, discuss, and use in care conversations. Our approach is guided by three principles:
Make clinically useful patterns visible
GLP-1 treatment can involve dose changes, missed injections, side effects, appetite shifts, and weight trends. Shotsy organizes those details into a clearer timeline, so patients and care teams can see what changed and what may be worth discussing.
Respect the patient-provider relationship
Shotsy does not diagnose, prescribe, or replace professional judgment. It helps patients keep a better record and gives providers more context for shared decision-making, adherence questions, side effect review, and follow-up planning.
Build digital health tools responsibly
Health data tools should be understandable, privacy-conscious, and clear about their limits. Our goal is to reduce recall burden and improve conversations without creating alarm or adding noise to care.
Guided by science, safety, and data privacy

Why GLP-1 tracking needs better data
GLP-1 medications can involve weekly injections, titration schedules, missed or delayed doses, medication switches, side effects, changing appetite, and long-term progress that is not always obvious week to week.
Memory alone is a poor interface for that much information.
Shotsy is designed to turn everyday tracking into structured, reviewable data, including:
- Injection history and timing
- Medication and dose changes
- Side effect logs
- Weight, BMI, and progress trends
- Estimated medication levels
- Injection site rotation
- PDF exports for appointments
Important: This information is not a diagnosis; it is context. Our goal is to make it easier for patients and clinicians to notice patterns and have better conversations.
