Independent drivers on the Zoomer platform have the ability to create their own schedule & increase their own efficiency, resulting in more earnings.

Eventually, I found a protocol that worked — not just for me, but for dozens of my closest friends. But I couldn't find the time to cook consistently and no meal service met my standards. So I built my own.\n\n### **Problem ❌**\n\nAs a founder, I never had time to cook, so I’d always settle for Doordash meals that made me feel sluggish and low energy. After doing some research, I realized that most prepared meals have:\n\n* **Low quality and processed ingredients** - produce sprayed with synthetic pesticides and sauces filled with processed ingredients and artificial emulsifiers (neurotoxins that can harm brain function over time)\n* **Unhealthy oils** - full of low-quality vegetable and seed oils, which throw off your Omega 6 to Omega 3 ratio (key to optimal cellular and brain function)\n* **Little to no fiber and protein** – dietary fiber and lean muscle mass are both huge components to regulating blood sugar (critical to sustaining energy levels)\n* **Packaging full of microplastics -** heating food in plastic containers leeches toxic chemicals and disrupts hormones\n\nAfter realizing that the way I eat can have a huge effect on my productivity levels, I started trying out “healthy” meal delivery services. Most tasted bad and claimed to be healthy, but after digging deeper, I realized it was mostly BS marketing with no real nutrition standards to back them up.\n\nThe Blueprint service appeared to be the best option, but after doing more research, I found that they just outsourced their food production to a company that uses seed oils and low-quality ingredients.\n\nEvery service I tried was compromised in some way. **I couldn’t find any options that hit all of the science-based health standards that I cared about and helped me perform my best.**\n\n---\n\n### **Solution 💡**\n\nI spent a long time doing research (and crunching studies with chatGPT) to come up with a strict list of rules for the food that I wanted to eat. Then, I found an experienced chef with over 20 years of fine dining experience and gave him a carefully curated list of approved ingredients for each meal.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=88937&key=user_uploads/714052/e2221663-6c7b-4412-91ff-e4f7240f6c40)\n\nThe meals that he created were delicious, and after a few weeks, I started noticing I felt different. **I had more energy throughout the day, felt much less fatigue after a long day of work, and started sleeping better.**\n\nMy friends asked to join in and get meals from my chef, and many began to notice the same benefits that I did. That’s when I decided to offer this as a service to everyone.\n\n### **Our Ask ❤️**\n\nWe want Locale to be the best delivery service for people who care about their mental performance and long-term health.\n\n* **Have you found any nutritional hacks that have helped you be more productive?** Tell us what worked (or didn't).

Local pharmacies receive these orders in their Point-of-Sale (POS) systems and communicate with the patient via chat.\n\nVivoly is beneficial, especially for patients with difficulty leaving their homes due to mobility issues or underlying health conditions that make them more vulnerable to infection.

Just like individual restaurants, pharmacies in Europe are one-person businesses. Without any state-of-the-art e-commerce solutions, it is tough for local pharmacies to compete with mail-order-pharmacies. This is true even though local pharmacies offer a much faster patient supply.\n\nIn Germany alone, there are over 120M deliveries done per year by pharmacies. Those are done without any digital process and are managed mostly manually. Compared to most retailers, pharmacies typically have real-time inventory management.\n\nSanvivo builds a marketplace that unlocks this existing infrastructure and delivery capabilities to enable a fast “quick-commerce” user experience. With our App, [VIVOLY,](https://onelink.to/vivolylaunchyc) patients order medication and get pharmaceutical advice via chat. Pharmacies are enabled to process those orders through our web app. Then, ready-to-pick-up orders are delivered by riders of the pharmacy using our mobile rider app.\n\n\\\n**🙏 Asks**\n\n* Download our app (currently only in Germany) and share your feedback with us ([founders@sanvivo.eu](mailto:founders@sanvivo.eu))\n\n### [Download VIVOLY App](https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-store/id1634607276?pt=125264050&ct=bookfacee&mt=8)\n\n* If you know great **working students** with coding, online marketing, or sales skills, please let us know.\n* **We are open to connecting** and cooperating with health providers.", "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/Hlk-sanvivo-doordash-for-pharmacies", "votes": 23, "created_at": "2023-01-10T12:22:21.191Z" } ] }, { "id": 29125, "name": "truemetrics", "slug": "truemetrics", "former_names": [], "small_logo_thumb_url": "https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/a6cd7b0f7663e8989ac828e2eeebe6e1968813d3.png", "website": "https://www.truemetrics.io/", "all_locations": "Berlin, Berlin, Germany", "long_description": "truemetrics helps logistics companies to find their customer's faster.

This saves merchants the costs associated with shipping replacements and, just as important, improves customers' perception of the merchant's brand.\n\nBy flagging GPS irregularities, using AI-assisted calls and texts to guide drivers at pick-up & drop-off, and scheduling around customer availability, Getcho ensures seamless and reliable deliveries.\n\n## Demo\n\n\n\n## About us\n\nJack and Evandro (\"Dro\") met in college.
