Wow, this really is pretty amazing (I work in the digital health space and have navigated the absolute chaos associated with wearables integration before). I think that Vital has a lot of potential and can't wait to play with it!

#23"Plaid for healthcare data" looks fantastic, and I love the focus on privacy. I've used https://nomie.app/ before to log things (they have an API), and I'm looking forward to the day when all my wearable and health data can be connected.
How does the lab testing API work? How do doctors' orders fit in?

#24Vital is awesome. I’ve built various integrations for health services for Conjure[0], and the implementation and maintenance of these does not bring much joy to my life.
Having worked with Vital’s API and Webhooks, I am so excited for our use of it in Conjure to go live. I really love their normalization of data (such as sleep[1]).

#26Wow Maitham, this looks amazing! We're building a similar product but it's specific to CPAP and sleep apena over at https://sleephq.com We're currently integrating with a few different CPAP manufacturers but we want to add other devices and wearables in the future and this looks like a great solution.
how does it compare to oscar that's open source? https://www.sleepfiles.com/OSCAR/
i like oscar because all the data analytics happen on your computer locally, so nothing gets sent out and you know its private

#27For the love of god, can you just show me the code without all of this typing animation? I’m trying to actually understand what I’m reading but it keeps looping and deleting the text.

Conjure is great!

All our docs are available here https://docs.tryvital.io/ happy to help you onboard, the animation on the home page is just an example. We'll slow down the animation speed going forward.

We've partnered with a number of labs in the U.S. and have a physicians network that covers all 50 states, that allows us to write doctors orders if your customers meet the pre-requisite requirements as agreed with our doctor. Once you're signed up, we'll have an onboarding call, where we discuss what your testing requirements are, typically it takes 3-6 weeks from inquiry to going live with your patients.
