Find what works for your body. And what doesn’t.
You’ve got a cabinet full of supplements and a drawer of gadgets, and you still can’t say which ones are doing anything. Studies describe how the average person responds. Your body runs its own experiment every day whether you’re watching or not. Outliyr watches it for you and tells you what to keep, what to drop, and what’s worth trying next.
Pay nothing and still out-optimize 99% of biohackers. Most of Outliyr is free, forever.
- ✓ No wearable required
- ✓ Syncs Apple Health, Health Connect, Oura, Whoop, Ultrahuman, and anything that writes into them (Garmin, Polar)
The problem
The research is right on average. You’re bio-individual.
Most health advice is built for the average person: protocols borrowed from someone else’s body, and a culture that says the fix is always to add more and measure more. That advice is right on average. Your genes, gut, environment, and history make your response different, and that gap is where years of guessing live and where your energy leaks away.
Every month you spend guessing costs energy you don’t get back, and the stack you’re paying for stays exactly as unproven as it was last year.
Your stack keeps growing. Your answers don’t.
More supplements, more devices, more tracking. A protocol with great evidence behind it can still do nothing for you, and nothing on your shelf tells you which is which.
You start to wonder if it’s you
When nothing seems to stick, it’s easy to blame your discipline or your genes. The quiet cost is doubt, plus the time, energy, and attention you can’t refund.
You were never meant to be this tired
Energy is the resource everything else runs on. You shouldn’t have to guess about your own body, and the thing that would work best for you might be sitting unused in your cabinet right now.

I built this because I needed it.
If you’ve spent years collecting supplements, devices, and half-finished protocols without knowing which ones moved the needle, I’ve been there. Conventional advice left me pre-diabetic with chronic fatigue at 18.
What got me out was testing instead of trusting: 14+ years of self-experiments, 200+ tools, and 290+ interviews with the people running the research. Outliyr is the method that came out of that, minus the years it cost me, so your next experiment starts where my trial and error ended.
Read my story →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 your energy goes to what actually works.
Graded evidence · Sharper with every data point
- ✓ Free plan, forever
- ✓ No wearable required
- ✓ We never sell your data
- ✓ Sensitive data encrypted at rest
What changes
Six months from now, you’ll actually know.
Today the honest answer to “is the magnesium doing anything?” is a shrug. A few test cycles in, it’s a verdict you can point at: this one earns its spot, this one doesn’t, and here’s the data that settled it.
Your stack gets shorter and better, and the energy you were leaking on things that never worked goes back to what does. Every item in it earned its place against your own baseline instead of a study run on somebody else.
You stop being someone who tries everything and become someone who knows what works for their body. That’s what it means to be an Outliyr.
Get the short list of what’s worth it (the few) and what to skip (most).
I test the priciest gear on real instruments like a spectrometer, run the protocols myself, and vet the tools and resources worth knowing. You get the few that earn a place, so you stay ahead and fully optimized. Twice a week. Free.

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 390+ evidence-based research guides, 290+ expert interviews, 160+ 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. Products that carry the Outliyr Verified badge link to the instrument-measured test data behind it. Outliyr serves data-literate people optimizing everything from daily energy to longevity, and it works with or without a wearable.
Questions about Outliyr and biohacking
Is Outliyr free?
Yes. The free plan runs the whole loop: unlimited experiments, every data connection (Oura, Whoop, Ultrahuman, Apple Health, Health Connect, labs, and DNA), unlimited history, and daily check-ins. Paid plans add deeper and more frequent analysis. Current plans are on the Outliyr platform page.
Do I need a wearable to use Outliyr?
No. You can log what you take and how you feel by hand or by voice, and Outliyr tests it against your own baseline. If you already use Apple Health, Health Connect, Oura, Whoop, or Ultrahuman, Outliyr syncs that data automatically, including anything that writes into Apple Health or Health Connect, like Garmin and Polar.
How is Outliyr different from asking ChatGPT?
ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini can tell you what usually works for most people. Outliyr shows you what actually worked for you, from your own recorded responses: it runs the on/off experiment, measures you against your baseline, and keeps every verdict. A general chatbot can reason about data, but it cannot create observations that were never recorded. See how the platform works.
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 290+ 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.
You’re one experiment away.
Keep guessing and next year looks like this one: a bigger stack, the same tiredness, and no answers. Start testing and you build a short list of what works for you, with the energy to show for it.
Outliyr is the only energy operating system built from your own data. Start free, log what you already do, and run your first experiment this week.
