Problem of managing type 1 diabetes without AI assistance

1. Describe the problem:

I have type 1 diabetes and make over 160 insulin dosage decisions daily that affect my life. Blood glucose levels are influenced by 42 factors (see list below) — from nutrition and weather to hormones and stress. Existing apps only count carbohydrates but don't analyze comprehensive data or provide predictive recommendations. I need an AI assistant that considers ALL factors and warns about insulin sensitivity changes.

Factors affecting blood glucose levels:

  • Nutrition: carbohydrates, proteins, fats, alcohol, caffeine
  • Biological: sleep, stress, hormones, menstruation, allergies
  • Medications: dosage, timing, interactions
  • Activity: workouts, fitness, time of day
  • Environmental: temperature, altitude, sunburn
  • Behavioral: decision making, social pressure

2. How often does the problem occur?

Daily, several times a day. Every meal, weather change, stress, or lack of sleep requires insulin dosage recalculation.

3. What attempts have you made to solve the problem?

I've searched for ready solutions — existing apps only count carbohydrates. I use manual calculations, but accounting for 42 factors is impossible. Parents of children with diabetes often give up due to calculation complexity.

4. How much are you willing to pay for the solution?

I'm willing to pay up to 10 euros per month for a working solution that analyzes all 42 factors and provides accurate recommendations.
