Love it! I think the UX for logging stuff is sufficiently good.

Biggest gap IMO is how do you see progress over time?

Once you see meaningful progress, it's easier to adhere to a workout routine. I think making that highly visible and easily consumable is key.

Also, not sure if this generalizes to other users, but I like having a list of 10-15 exercises for PRs that I'll try to beat every 4 weeks.

@chamath Does this control for screening rate? E.g., if women are 2x more likely to get screened than men

Defog now support multi-lingual queries!

We received many feature requests after our launch yesterday, and will implement them as soon as we can.

We like to move fast. Look out for a new feature added every day for the next month 🛠️

@dennizor I don't think many folks think VR/AR is a bad bet. It's the magnitude of the bet vs markers of progress that investors are squeamish on.

Faster R-CNN, RetinaNet, YOLOv5, YOLOX, VFNet
