StuffThatWorks

Do you have a chronic condition? You are no longer alone. Join the community for your condition, see the experience of others, and share yours. Contact people directly or join the community’s discussion. The information everyone shares is turned into real data that helps the community. Treatments, symptoms, triggers, what works and what doesnt and more.

It’s more than a community. Using crowdsourcing, we’re building the ultimate knowledge base for your chronic condition, together. Everyone’s experience is turned into real data and useful insights, including organized information on how others experience the condition and AI analysis of which treatments work best and for whom. The more people share, the smarter it becomes.

Millions of experiences are turned into useful features:

• Organized information about hundreds of treatments, symptoms, triggers, co-existing conditions, side effects and more
• A list of the most effective and most detrimental treatments, based on AI-analysis (once your community has enough members)
• Keep track of your overall health and wellbeing with a personalized timeline, composed of your daily updates and objective health metrics from wearables (including automatic integration with the Health app)
• View other members’ reports
• Easily interact with others on the discussion board and chat
• Get access to an interactive map of members by similarity – those closest are the most similar to you
• Add your own research questions for the entire community to answer
• Search the data for people who tried a specific treatment or had similar circumstances
• With time, as more contributors join, you’ll learn which treatment works best for your AI-identified subgroup, tailored to your characteristics
