Kineo

Guided Wellness Platform

Cross-platform health & fitness coaching platform. React 19 + Expo/React Native with AI coaching, meal scanning, adaptive workouts, grocery planning, and device integrations — all in one app shell. Freemium + Pro subscription at $19/mo.

Project Archived

cat overview.md

Kineo One was a production-grade wellness platform built with React 19 and TypeScript for web, plus React Native via Expo for iOS and Android. It combined AI-powered coaching, adaptive workout programming, meal scanning with macro analysis, grocery planning, and recovery analytics into a unified cross-platform experience.

The app ran a freemium model with Pro at $19/month ($190/year) through RevenueCat. Multi-provider auth (Apple, Google, Email) via Supabase, with Sentry for error tracking and PostHog for analytics. Fully deployed at mykineo.com on Render with EAS builds for iOS TestFlight.

Core Surfaces

01

Adaptive Workout Player

Live exercise sequencing with adaptive rest timers, set tracking, and workout history. Goal-based programming (Lean / Build / Balance) with tailored macro targets and progress logging.

02

AI Coach & Daily Brief

AI coaching engine with adaptive program suggestions. Daily brief with activity rings, metric cards (calories, workout, steps, streak), and trend analysis across weekly, monthly, and quarterly windows.

03

Meal Scanner & Nutrition

Camera-based meal scanning with AI-powered food detection, macro adjustment (portion size, carb/protein confidence), weekly meal templates, recipe library, and barcode lookup.

04

Grocery & Meal OS

Three shopping modes (quick, pantry, household) with grocery checklists, pantry inventory tracking, quantity management, and household sharing with member assignment.

05

Design Studio

Full UI customization system with 4 color presets (Aurora, Plasma, Solar, Midnight), configurable motion, glass blur, density, and contrast settings. Save/load/import design profiles.

06

Device Integrations

Connected device ecosystem: Apple Health, WHOOP, Garmin, and Oura Ring for biometric sync — heart rate, HRV, steps, sleep, and recovery metrics feeding into the coaching engine.

Skills Carried Forward

Kineo was the proving ground for the product engineering approach that now drives SimDex and SPUF. Context + hooks state management, CSS custom property theming, multi-provider auth flows, subscription billing integration, and cross-platform deployment pipelines all transferred directly to subsequent projects.

Why It Was Discontinued

Kineo was a complete product but competing in the wellness space required sustained content production and community building alongside engineering. The decision was made to redirect focus toward SimDex (market tooling) and SPUF (system utilities) where the engineering skills had higher leverage and the product-market dynamics were stronger.

The codebase, architecture patterns, and deployment infrastructure from Kineo continue to inform current work.
