Find what works for your body. And what doesn’t.
Studies describe how groups respond. Your biology runs its own experiment every day. Outliyr reads it and tells you what to keep, what to drop, and what to try next.

The problem
The research is right on average. You’re bio-individual.
Health studies describe the average response of a group. Your genes, gut, environment, and history make your response different. That gap is where years of guessing live.
Generic advice has a hidden failure rate
A protocol with great evidence behind it can still do nothing for you. The studies were never about you specifically.
Guessing costs more than money
The bigger price is time, energy, and attention. Months on something inert is a season of your life you can’t refund.
Your best interventions stay hidden
The thing that would work shockingly well for you might be unpopular, under-researched, or sitting unused in your cabinet right now.
How it works
Stop collecting protocols. Start collecting answers.
Outliyr turns the health optimization work you’re already doing into clear keep-it-or-drop-it verdicts, graded by how strong the evidence is for you specifically.
See your whole stack clearly
Every supplement, device, and protocol you’re running, in one place. Spot the overlaps, the gaps, and what each one is supposed to be doing for you.
Structured logging · Seconds per day · Voice check-ins optional
Test what you respond to
Pick anything in your stack and put it on trial. Outliyr designs the test, runs it against your own baseline, and watches the data so you don’t have to.
Auto-designed self-experiments · Calibrated to your data quality
Keep what works. Drop what doesn’t.
Get verdicts in plain language: this one’s earning its place, this one isn’t, this one deserves a closer look. Your stack gets cheaper and stronger at the same time.
Graded evidence · Sharper with every data point

What is Outliyr?
Outliyr is a health optimization platform and research hub for high performers, founded in 2018 by Nick Urban, host of the High Performance Longevity podcast. The methodology is verification instead of description: members log their supplements, devices, and protocols, then test them against their own baseline data through structured self-experiments, with every answer graded Experimental, Under test, or Confirmed. The platform sits on top of 370+ evidence-based research guides, 270+ expert interviews, 130+ BioHarmony intervention ratings, and a suite of free health optimization tools, all grounded in 14+ years of first-hand testing. BioHarmony is Outliyr’s evaluation framework: it weighs an intervention’s downsides as heavily as its upsides across multiple lenses of evidence. Outliyr serves data-literate people optimizing everything from daily energy to longevity, and it works with or without a wearable.
Nick Urban · Founder
Your body has answers. I’ll show you how to get them.
If you’ve spent years collecting supplements, devices, and half-finished protocols without knowing which ones moved the needle, you’re exactly who this was built for. I’m Nick Urban. Conventional advice left me pre-diabetic with chronic fatigue at 18, and it took me 14+ years and 200+ tools to learn what my body responds to. Outliyr hands you that shortcut, so your next experiment starts where my trial and error ended.

Biohacking & Longevity: Common Questions
What is biohacking?
Biohacking is the practice of using science, self-experimentation, and data tracking to optimize your biology for better energy, sleep, cognition, and longevity. It combines ancestral health principles, like cold exposure, sunlight, and whole foods, with modern tools like wearables, peptides, and nootropics. The goal is personalized optimization based on your unique biomarkers.
How do I start biohacking?
The Beginner’s Guide to Biohacking recommends three highest-impact, lowest-cost foundations: optimizing sleep quality, morning sunlight exposure for circadian rhythm, and movement for stress resilience and metabolism. These are free and backed by strong evidence. From there, track baseline biomarkers (HRV, sleep scores, blood panels) so you can measure what actually works for your biology.
What are the best biohacking supplements and tools?
The best tools depend on your specific goals and biology. After 14+ years of testing and 270+ expert interviews, the most consistently effective categories include magnesium and adaptogens for stress, red/infrared light therapy panels for recovery, a daily wearable for bodily insight, and HRV biofeedback systems for nervous system optimization.
How is biohacking different from longevity and anti-aging?
Longevity science focuses on extending lifespan through interventions like caloric restriction, senolytics, and epigenetic reprogramming. Anti-aging usually targets cosmetic markers of aging. Biohacking encompasses both but prioritizes PerformanceSpan: not just living longer, but maintaining peak energy, cognition, and physical capacity throughout your life. It’s optimization for the highest quality years, not just quantity.
What is the BioHarmony Framework?
BioHarmony is Outliyr’s framework for evaluating any supplement, device, or protocol across multiple lenses of evidence, with downsides weighted as heavily as upsides. Instead of hacking your biology against its own signals, BioHarmonizing works with it. More than 130 interventions carry published ratings in the BioHarmony ratings library.
What is PerformanceSpan?
PerformanceSpan is how long you can perform at a high level across the life domains that matter most to you. Lifespan counts your years and healthspan counts your disease-free years; PerformanceSpan measures the years you operate near your peak, with energy, cognition, and physical capacity all included.
How is Outliyr different from other health optimization sites?
Most health sites describe what works on average. Outliyr verifies what works for you: members run structured self-experiments against their own baseline data and get keep-it-or-drop-it answers graded by evidence strength. The research hub behind it spans deep guides, expert interviews, and BioHarmony ratings, and no wearable is required.
