Your AI companion for autoimmune health
Living with an autoimmune condition means navigating fatigue, flares, and an overwhelming amount of conflicting health advice — often alone. BuddyRise changes that.
BuddyRise is your personal AI wellness companion, built specifically for people managing MS, Lupus, Hashimoto's, and Psoriasis. It brings together intelligent health tracking, science-backed learning, and a supportive community — all in one place, guided by Buddy, your AI companion who actually remembers you.
Your AI Companion — Buddy
Talk to Buddy anytime, by text or voice. Buddy knows your condition, your recent symptoms, your energy levels, and your health history. Ask for advice, get daily focus plans, or just vent. Buddy listens, remembers, and responds with genuine context — not generic answers.
Track What Actually Matters
Log your daily energy with the Spoon Theory-inspired Energy Bank. Track symptoms, sleep, stress, movement, and meals. See your patterns clearly with a weekly insights view. Every log builds a richer picture of your health — one that Buddy uses to support you better every day.
Monthly PROMIS Health Check-In
Complete the NIH-validated PROMIS Global-10 questionnaire each month to track your physical and mental health over time. Buddy interprets your scores and helps you understand your trajectory — a clinical-grade outcome measure in your pocket.
Science-Backed Learning Hubs
Explore condition-specific learning hubs covering gut health, nutrition, movement, and more — built on peer-reviewed science. Slide through bite-sized modules at your own pace and build a toolkit of evidence-based strategies tailored to your condition.
A Community That Gets It
Connect with others living with the same conditions in moderated community groups. Watch community stories, share your experience, and feel less alone on the harder days.

This app is wonderful so far. I’ve run into one little problem, but it’s fixable, depending on the person. I have to have the zoom feature turned on when I use my phone because I can’t see well. When it came to entering some of my information, I had to disable the zoom in order to get to all of the features. Some of the buttons were not able to be accessed because of the zoom. Once I fix that everything was perfect. I’m loving it so far. Another thing I wish it had was an area where I could put in all of my chronic illnesses. Buddy seems very knowledgeable. Buddy has helped me kind of step back and take a breath. I feel like it could be more helpful if Buddy was aware of all of my chronic illnesses and maybe my medication.
I LOVE THIS APP

This was really what I was looking for everything is clearly made by a fatigued autoimmune warrior. I can log everything effortlessly without feeling like it’s taking from my energy.
What's new in BuddyRise
Big update! Buddy's been busy:
- Connect your wearable. Your sleep and body signals now flow straight into BuddyRise, so Buddy sees the full picture.
- A fresh Today screen. Buddy notices what's going on and gives you one gentle nudge, not ten. Track meds, symptoms, sleep and food at a glance.
- Buddy's daily plan. 3 to 5 small steps matched to your spoons. Tap any step to see why Buddy suggests it.
- Not feeling it? Take a rest day or log a flare in one tap. No guilt, just a pause.
- Meet Body. See your patterns over 7, 30 or 90 days: spoons, symptoms, sleep and meds in one view.
- Smarter chats. Tap "Ask Buddy about this" anywhere and Buddy already knows the context. Voice messages are faster too.
- Easier medication tracking. Every dose has its own check-off, so you can see exactly what's done.
- Smoother start. We fixed sign-up and onboarding hiccups and squashed a pile of bugs.
Thanks for rising with us. Tell Buddy what you think!
