A week with Orph
One thread. The whole picture.
No notebook. No food search. No spreadsheet.
Proactive plan · you opt in
A nudge when the log needs one.
After your first successful log, you can turn on a plan in Messages. Before every send, Orph checks the live log. If it is already done, the reminder disappears.
3:00 PM · only if it is still missing
nothing is in the food log yet. send whatever you’ve had and i’ll count it up.
8:30 PM · close the loop
training made it in. anything else i should add before the day closes?
Sunday · one useful pattern
4 training sessions made it into the log. next week’s focus is getting protein moving earlier.

Frequently asked questions
What is Orph?
Orph is a health-tracking assistant built for iMessage. Send workouts and meals like normal messages, and Orph organizes the details for you.
Why iMessage?
Tracking usually breaks down when it requires another app, form, or food search. Orph puts the fastest part—the logging—inside a conversation you already know how to use.
What can I track during the alpha?
The alpha focuses on workouts and meals: lifts, sets, notes, calories, and macros. That is the starting point for a broader view of your health over time.
Do I need to enter anything in an app?
No. iMessage is where you log. The companion app is for reviewing history and trends, not repeating the same manual entry.
Will Orph send me reminders?
Only if you explicitly turn on a proactive plan in Messages. You choose the categories and times. Orph checks the live log before sending, honors quiet hours, sends no more than four proactive texts per day, and will not send a second rescue nudge unless you replied to the first. You can edit the plan in Messages or stop it from either Messages or the app.
How accurate are the calorie and macro estimates?
They are estimates based on the meal you describe. You can correct an ingredient or portion with a reply. Orph is not a substitute for medical or nutritional advice.
Who can join the alpha?
Orph is launching in the United States for iPhone users who already exercise and track at least some of their workouts or meals.
