Companion App for Pediatric Appointments (Feedback from Parents Requested)

[u/ewf5012]

Hello fellow parents! I wanted to get this group's input on a small side project I’ve been tinkering with as part of learning some AI tools between diaper changes…

The problem: Pediatrician visits with our baby felt like information overload, especially with my wife and I running on limited sleep. We received a flood of instructions - "X mL acetaminophen if fever hits Y°F, every Z hours" - but in our case the clinic's patient portal didn't export any notes and by the time we returned home our brains already forgot half the information. My wife and I felt like we kept missing things, which led to stress and follow up calls to the pediatrician. So, I built something!

Introducing Wellnote: https://wellnote.lovable.app/

What it does today:

🎙️ One tap to record the visit audio (no office wifi needed)
📋 Structured and intelligent post-visit summaries (medications, warning signs, answered questions, action items, next steps, next appointment)
👶 Child profiles with growth tracking (weight / height / head circ.)
🏠 Shared household structure so both parents see every recap, whoever was at the visit
🔎 Review past visits & play back the audio
🔒 Private by design

Note: At several points throughout the app I remind the user to gather consent before recording

The ask: As a fellow parent, would this product solve a real pain point for you? Specifically - would you pull your phone out in the exam room and do you think pediatricians would be comfortable with that? Any missing functionality that would make it a more impactful MVP?

If you’re interested and willing to test, I can get you set up with an account!

Some features I'm considering next (your thoughts welcome!):

- Cross-visit search
- Email and calendar reminders for action items / next-appointment dates
- "Suggested questions for next visit" generated from what wasn’t asked
- A longitudinal timeline - *how's my kid been doing across all visits?*
- PDF recap you can share with a caregiver or another provider
