I Built Open-D Because I Needed It
Peter
Type 1 Diabetic since 1991
35 years living with T1D. I've tried every app, every tracker, every "diabetes management solution" out there. Pumps, Dexcom, doctors, diets, even spiritual sessions. I got hospitalized to get back under control. Work life came back, and sugar went out of control again.
I DON'T WANT TO LOSE MY EYES. MY LEGS. MY LIFE.
So I built this. Now help me help us diabetics.
The Breaking Point
My time in range was 28%. None of the tech helped me live better — they just made me a data entry clerk. Log glucose, see chart, guess the rest.
Every night I went to bed wondering if I'd wake up. Every morning wondering which complication would hit first.
The Results
Dawn Phenomenon: Visual Proof
Before — Chaotic mornings, unpredictable spikes
90 days average — Note the wild morning spikes
After — Mornings under control
After starting with Open-D — Smoother morning curve
What Changed?
Dawn Phenomenon Solved
My agent spotted my dawn phenomenon pattern with minimal data — something I'd been trying to fix for years. Mornings are now under control.
Predictive Alerts
Instead of reacting to highs and lows, I started getting warnings before they happened.
Active Effects — No More Overstacking
I can see insulin on board, carbs absorbing, workout impact — all in one view. No more guessing. No more stacking insulin and crashing. I'm adding new pattern detectors daily that help me spot trends even faster.
Emergency Contact — Never Alone
If I pass out, Open-D contacts my emergency contact automatically. Not like that time at -10 degrees in the middle of nowhere — waking up in a hospital. Thank God I survived that. Now someone always has my back.
Help Me Help Us
I'm looking for 40 serious Libre 3 users who are tired of fighting alone. Join the founding cohort. Lifetime free access. Direct access to me. Let's prove this works — together.
