PepOS is the peptide protocol command center for biohackers who take optimization seriously. PepOS is an educational tracking and journal app. Not medical advice. Always consult a licensed healthcare provider before starting any peptide protocol. Track every dose, vial, and outcome. Build protocols by hand or let AI design them based on your goals. Close your daily rings — Execution, Progress, Recovery — and watch your 7-day optimization score climb. APPLE HEALTH + AI INSIGHTS Connect PepOS to Apple Health to see how your protocols are actually affecting your body. PepOS reads your weight, body composition, resting heart rate, HRV, and sleep data on your device and shows you trends alongside your peptide timeline. Weight entries you log in PepOS sync back to Apple Health automatically. With your separate permission, Peppy — our AI assistant — can also use a 30-day summary of your Health metrics to give protocol-specific insights ("your HRV has improved 14 ms since starting your current protocol") instead of generic advice. AI data sharing is optional, granular, and can be turned off anytime without disconnecting Apple Health. Your health data is never shared with advertisers and never used to train AI models. KEY FEATURES 260+ peptide library with detailed profiles, mechanisms, and educational dosing references Peppy — your AI peptide coach who knows your stack, your goals, and your history Smart protocol builder — manual, titration, on/off cycling, and transition planning Vial inventory tracking with cost-per-dose intelligence Injection site rotation across 8 regions with visual heatmap Daily check-ins for sleep, mood, energy, and side effects Blood work tracking with marker trends over time Progress photos with AI body composition analysis Weekly intelligence reports synthesized by AI Calendar sync, dose reminders, and protocol scheduling SUBSCRIPTION TIERS Free — 3 protocols, basic AI chat, 2 vials PepOS Intelligence ($9.99/mo or $59.99/yr, save 50%) — Unlimited protocols, unlimited AI, blood work tracking, AI blood analyzer, AI vial scanner, progress photo analysis, voice input, calendar sync, protocol sharing, transition planner, weekly intelligence reports, and priority AI Built by biohackers, for biohackers who don't settle for spreadsheets.

Ester is a private tracker for physician-prescribed hormone and peptide therapy - TRT, GLP-1 medications, and other injectable or oral treatments. Log doses in two taps, see estimated medication levels, keep your lab work in context, and watch your real progress. START WITH 7 DAYS FREE Every feature is included with an Ester Pro subscription, and new subscribers get a 7-day free trial. EVERYTHING STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE No account. No server. No analytics. Your data never leaves your phone - we could not hand it over if we wanted to. Lock the app with Face ID and choose a discreet home-screen icon. LOG IN TWO TAPS A daily checklist with reminders, streaks, and injection-site rotation history. Vial inventory tracks what you have on hand, how much is left, and when you'll run out. ESTIMATED LEVELS A levels chart estimates active medication from the doses you log, using published half-life values. Solid past, projected future, a steady-state badge - and a washout view when a treatment period ends. LABS IN CONTEXT Record blood panels with editable reference ranges. Trends show every marker against your treatment timeline, and values outside your reference range are flagged. RECEIPTS FOR YOUR PROTOCOL Report cards summarize each treatment period: weight, body composition, strength, lab changes, and adherence. Compare periods side by side and share progress cards with medication names hidden by default. ESTER NEVER GIVES ADVICE Ester tracks and visualizes data you enter. It does not recommend medications, doses, or schedules, and it is not a substitute for medical care. Always consult your physician. Ester requires an auto-renewing Ester Pro subscription ($4.99/month or $29.99/year). New subscribers get a 7-day free trial. Subscriptions renew unless cancelled in your App Store settings. Your data stays on your device even if your subscription ends. Terms: https://castanedanetworks.com/ester/terms Privacy: https://castanedanetworks.com/ester/privacy

Verdict
The clearest difference is device support: PepOS at 3 against Ester's 1. PepOS also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
