Would love to hear more about this, sounds like a fun time.

Are you planning to move from peptides to generics in the future? Also, considering you are looking at full vertical integration, is blood testing going to be a part of the pipeline in the future or will you partner with service providers? (I assume the latter until you grow enough to expand into that?)

While peptides are currently the hot market, I definitely can see the feedback loop being a great growth driver. Having a "hands-off" medication management with doses changing based on periodical labs result would be amazing - I am on a generic med (T4) for an autoimmune, and the process is annoying:

- Get labs done

- Schedule an endocrinologist, wait

- Reach out to my GP, have them bump my medications

- Wait for them to answer/arrange a checkup

- Wait for it to clear with the pharmacy

- Repeat

If this could be condensed in a loop that is basically get labs done -> pick up prescription, it would both reduce waiting time and reduce pressure on the med system, plus could be a huge data source on drug interactions.

Oh, and one last thing - considering the peptide market is currently full of grey/black market companies, drop-shippers and affiliate resellers, how do you plan to market it?

Especially judging by the site design, if I saw this link elsewhere I'd think it was AI dropshipping slop - no offense - mostly due to classic Claude design and the AI generated bottle/video.

Besides that, congratulations on the launch - love the vision and the future it can bring, hope you become at least a decacorn!
