Reinventing Disordered Eating After-Care

Current clinical after-care ends when the patient leaves the office. Traditional digital tools make the recovery journey harder, not easier.

The Problem (Current Anorexia After-Care)

Education-FocusedCurrent methods focus heavily on basic education and rudimentary social support, neglecting individual daily friction.
Lack of MotivationExisting tools suffer from a lack of proper goal-setting and motivation-building systems.
No Progress TrackingA distinct absence of progress tracking designed specifically for long-term behavior change.

The Solution

No Calorie ObsessionThe platform champions food logging without enforcing rigid numerical calorie metrics to eliminate additional anxiety or fear.
Pattern-Based GuidanceThe system actively monitors behavioral patterns and gently nudges users toward consistency.
Positive EngagementAn interactive virtual pet (Mascot) celebrating with the user. Users earn coins for caring for themselves, unlocking custom clothes (PippaClothes) and keeping them engaged.

Inside the Patient's Pocket

Instead of a sterile medical grid, patients open a cozy pixel-art environment. The top bar gamifies metric consistency (tomato icon count, streak timer, and wellness indicator) while the bottom controls keep food logging, mood surveys, and caregiver links accessible.

  • Coin rewards for nutrition habits
  • Custom pixel cosmetics (PippaClothes)
  • Safe AI chats monitored by clinical team
  • Quick-tap grounding breathing guides
