<div>Hi, I’m Jon Douglas (@<a href="https://x.com/atranscendedman" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">atranscendedman</a> ).
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’ve lived with long COVID for the past four years. During that time, I’ve worked alongside researchers and patients who have pushed the science forward, often without the tools or support they deserved. I’ve also gained first-hand experience designing clinical trials with the NIH, helping prioritize research directions, and supporting research teams in securing grants to continue their work.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>That’s why I’m creating <strong>TrialPilot</strong>, which is a platform that makes clinical trials possible from home.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With just a smartphone and wearable, patients will be able to join studies, track their symptoms, and contribute real data that helps discover treatments faster.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why This Matters Now</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Millions of people with long COVID and other chronic conditions are still waiting for answers.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Researchers want to run studies faster.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Patients want to participate.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>However, the tools don’t exist. At least not in a scalable, patient-centered way.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>TrialPilot fills that gap.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The sooner we build it, the sooner real patients can help generate the data that leads to real treatments.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Built by People Who’ve Done This Before</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>One of the things I’m most grateful for is the group of people helping bring TrialPilot to life.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our team is composed of industry veterans from <strong>Microsoft, Xamarin, and other major tech companies</strong> including engineers and product experts who’ve built software used by millions of people around the world.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>They’re bringing the engineering excellence and product discipline needed to build a platform that can truly support real science, while staying simple enough for any patient to use at home.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>TrialPilot isn’t just an idea, it’s something a deeply skilled team is already working to build.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>What This First Version Will Do</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’m raising funds to build the first version of the app, which is called a minimal viable product (MVP), that will enable patients to:
</div>
<ul>
<li>Join and run their own small, patient-led trials
</li>
<li>Log their health data easily and securely
</li>
<li>Connect wearable data for continuous, real-world insights
</li>
<li>Share results with research teams who care
</li>
</ul>
<div>This MVP is the foundation for everything that comes next, from adaptive trials to AI-powered insights.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Where the Funds Will Go</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your support will help cover:
</div>
<ul>
<li>Secure hosting, HIPAA-ready data systems
</li>
<li>iOS &amp; Android mobile app development
</li>
<li>Backend services and researcher dashboards
</li>
<li>Wearable integrations (Apple Health, Google Health Connect)
</li>
<li>Security, encryption, and compliance tooling
</li>
<li>Early pilot studies with patient &amp; researcher communities
</li>
<li>Social media outreach to bring awareness to decentralized clinical trials.
</li>
</ul>
<div>Every dollar goes directly into building the tools patients need.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>A Commitment to Transparency</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We're committed to complete transparency every step of the way.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’ll share progress updates, screenshots, releases, and open development notes as we build this together.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you’ve ever felt frustrated by how slow medical research moves, or if you know someone still waiting for answers, <strong>your help can make a real difference.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every donation helps us get closer to a world where anyone, anywhere, can take part in finding better treatments.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for believing in this.
</div>
<div>❤️ Jon Douglas
</div>
<div>Founder, TrialPilot
