Regimen vs Gleva: Doses, Levels and Lab Results Together
Regimen connects each dose to your medication levels, lab results and health metrics. Where that depth pays off, who it is too much for, and how our approach differs.
The gap Regimen goes after
Most GLP-1 trackers stop at doses, symptoms and weight. Bloodwork ends up somewhere else — a photo of a printout, a PDF in an email, a patient portal you log into twice a year.
Which means the one comparison worth making is the one nobody can make: what happened to those numbers across the months your dose was changing.
Regimen is built to close that. It connects each dose to estimated medication levels, lab results and other health metrics in a single view. It carries a 4.8 rating on the App Store, so the depth is landing for the people who want it.
Why that matters more over time
This is a tracker that gets more useful the longer you use it, which is the opposite of most.
In month one, dose and symptoms is the whole job — that is what what to log in your first month argues, and adding lab tracking to a first-month setup is a good way to abandon the whole thing by week three.
By month nine the question has changed. You have been through several dose steps, your weight has moved, and the useful questions are about the slow-moving numbers: what the trend is, how it lines up with the treatment timeline, and what to raise at the next appointment. That is where a tool holding all of it together earns its keep, and it overlaps with the body composition question that a scale alone cannot answer.
Where it is too much
Depth cuts the same way it does everywhere. If you are four weeks in and want a button that says you took your shot, this is more instrument than you need, and the setup cost lands in the week you have the least information about what you will actually track.
Data syncs to the cloud, as with most of this category.
Side by side
| Regimen | Gleva | |
|---|---|---|
| Available | Yes | No — in development |
| Lab / bloodwork tracking | Core feature | Not planned initially |
| Medication levels | Yes | Planned |
| Best for | Long histories, lots of data | Reading what a log already says |
| Learning curve | Steeper | Deliberately small |
| Storage | Cloud | Local-first, planned |
Where we differ
Regimen and Gleva are aimed at the same frustration from opposite ends.
Regimen's answer is to bring more of the relevant data into one place, so the comparison becomes possible. Ours is that most people already have enough data by month three and still cannot read it — so the work is in surfacing the relationships rather than widening the inputs.
Practically that means Regimen will hold more than we will, and we are betting on doing less with more of it made obvious. Which is right for you depends on whether your problem is that the numbers are scattered or that they are unreadable.
Regimen exists. We do not, yet.
How to choose
Choose Regimen if you track lab results, you are months rather than weeks into treatment, and you want depth.
Choose something simpler if you are starting out. Shotsy is the established default and the full comparison covers the lighter options.
Wait for Gleva if you have the data already and want the reading rather than more inputs.
Whatever you use, the appointment guide covers getting it onto one page your provider can actually use.
