An innovative WhatsApp chatbot with a focus on tracking meals and workouts through image, audio & text as well as integration with popular apps like Strava, Whoop & more.
Exactly one year ago, we launched the first version of Shapemate. A simple WhatsApp chat to track meals and workouts. No budget. No team. Just a vision: making fitness and health as easy as chatting with a friend 💬
What started as a simple chat has turned into something much bigger. Over the past months, with the support of my friend and now co-founder, we’ve rebuilt Shapemate from the ground up - smarter, faster, and packed with new features we couldn’t have imagined back then 🤯
Today, Shapemate lets you:
🥗 Log meals via photo, voice, or text
🏋️♂️ Track workouts and body weight with one message
🔗 Sync your data from Strava and Whoop - (Apple Health: coming soon)
🧠 Get personalized AI-based recipe suggestions and more
📊 View everything in a clean external dashboard
➕ & more
This is more than just a relaunch - it’s a love letter to everyone who’s ever felt overwhelmed by fitness apps ❤️
We're incredibly proud of what we’ve built and even more excited to hear what you think.
It is like a super-app for fitness with all these integrations. Congrats on the launch!
Have you integrated the apps like Strava as tools for your LLM to work agentically?
Really cool app!
I hit a few minor issues when trying it out:
When picking the year in the onboarding form, it kept switching to a different year (I'm using an iphone 15)
In the dashboard, clicking "manage subscription" gives an error page
When I typed "calculate calorie needs", it took me through the onboarding questions that I already answered, and there was no way to "exit" or cancel it.
The WhatsApp approach is great, though I'm curious about how you manage the app's integrations with WhatsApp chat, like Whoop, Strava, or Apple Health. Does it log the data in these apps from WhatsApp messages, or just notify you of newly generated data?
This is how all fitness apps should work - seamlessly integrated into daily life!
You've nailed the perfect balance - powerful tracking that feels lightweight and natural. Keeping it in WhatsApp is such a smart move - no extra downloads, no complicated interfaces. Just simple, conversational health tracking. My lazy self thanks you! Kudos!
Shapemate is brilliant!! Love the WhatsApp approach too, super smart team :))
Wishing you all the best as this rolls out!
Using WhatsApp to track meals and workouts in such a flexible way — via photos, voice, or text — makes staying on top of health goals feel natural. Love the integrations too, especially for active users.
