Why Dappy Health?
Imagine a world where every person can
- Collect data about their health, 24*7
- Get personalized insights about how to improve their health
- Get alerted when something is not right so they can take preventive measures
- Setup consultations with a doctor proactively
- Do all of the above such that they always have control over their health data
- Spend less than 10 minutes a year doing all of the above
For the first time in history, this has become possible.
Why we need to be extremely careful
Your wearables and health apps know more about your health than you do. In some cases, you wouldn't even be able to access the raw health data from these devices even if you wanted.
Data about your and my health is being stored on a trusted centralized server in exchange for a product or service we use (such as the Apple watch, Fitbit, Google Fit etc). Here is a high-level flow of how things work today.
- A wearable device monitors and collects your health data and stores it on a centralized server.
- A centralized service (generally run by a company with a lot of resources) generates insight on your health data using AI.
- The service gets better over time as it has access to a larger amount of data
- We are hooked
- We are willing to exchange data about our health for the service we get
- Until ...
Today, we have a better way.
A better way
This is the Dappy way.
- Wearable devices collect data about your health in a non-custodial way and sign and encrypt the data with your private keys that are natively on the device. Those of you that own a hardware wallet know that this is possible today.
- The data collected by the device is stored on a sufficiently decentralized layer-3 network that is specifically designed for storing private data streams about your health. Your data is not accessible to anyone including the people running a node on this network.
- You can visualize your health data at any time on the Dappy Health App or any other application which builds on top of the healthcare network.
- You get personalized insights on your health data either by using a trusted service provider (you can give and revoke access to your data as needed) or running your own AI service (yes, we know this is ambitious but we strongly believe it will be possible to run your own sufficiently large AI models that align specifically with you at an affordable cost soon. check tinycorp. ).
- You automatically share the relevant health data with your doctor and setup consultations when needed.
Here's what we're building at Dappy Health ().
Dappy Health App
The Dappy Health app is an open source application that makes it possible for users to visualize their health data and get insights about their health data. The data itself will be stored on the Health Network in a privacy preserving, non-custodial way.
Health Network
The Health Network is a custom layer-3 solution that makes it possible to store health data privately while also making sure that enough people run nodes so the data is persisted through time and always retrievable by the owner of the data. Today, users store their health data on a centrally controlled cloud service. Health Network is the alternative.
Dappy Wearables
Dappy wearables is a self custodial hardware wallet cum wearable device that collects data about your health 24*7. It makes it possible to collect and store your data such that it is completely private and user controlled.
All hands on deck
Dappy Health revolutionizes healthcare making it accessible and affordable to everyone in the world. Everyone in the world should be able to collect data and proactively monitor their health without sacrificing the privacy and ownership of their health data.
Unlike the traditional healthcare industry, we're committed to building Dappy Healh fully open source. we're also extremely mission driven and hope to make this a reality.
If you would like to help make this a reality, consider funding us!
