An AI meal scanner just for people with gout.
The idea: Condition-specific AI food scanner
Goutsnap lets people with gout photograph a meal and get an instant purine analysis to avoid flare-ups. Its listing claims 13,000+ users, and it has $5K in verified revenue. One chronic condition makes for a sharply targeted audience.

The receipts

People with gout (and similar diet-driven conditions).
How it makes money
App subscription.
How to start your own
- Pick one condition with clear food rules (gout, IBS/low-FODMAP, kidney disease).
- Have a dietitian review your guidance.
- Market in patient communities.
The catch
Health claims need care. Stay in 'information', not 'treatment'.
