Your Personal
Longevity
Operating System.

Most people have access to more health data than ever before, yet struggle to understand what it means. Escape Velocity combines wearable data, biomarkers, body composition and lifestyle factors into one intelligent system that delivers personalised insights designed to improve healthspan, performance and resilience.

The Problem

More data.
Less clarity.

We track our sleep, monitor our heart rate, wear fitness devices and collect health data from multiple apps and platforms.

Yet most people still do not know how these signals connect, what they mean or what actions to take.

Health optimisation has become fragmented. Escape Velocity brings everything together into one intelligent system designed to help you make better decisions about your health, performance and longevity.

How It Works

Connect. Interpret. Improve.

Escape Velocity turns scattered health information into a clear, personalised decision-making framework.

01 · Connect
Bring your signals together
Wearables, blood tests, blood pressure, DEXA, genomics, nutrition and lifestyle inputs are brought into one joined-up view.
02 · Interpret
Understand what they mean
AI-powered analysis looks for patterns, trends and relationships, while expert oversight keeps recommendations practical and evidence-informed.
03 · Improve
Take better action
Receive targeted recommendations to improve recovery, metabolic health, body composition, performance, hormonal balance and long-term resilience.
The Platform

One system.
Every signal.

01 · Continuous
Wearable Data
HRV, sleep, training load, stress and recovery — tracked daily and interpreted intelligently.
02 · Clinical
Biomarkers
Blood panels covering metabolic health, hormones, inflammation, nutrient status and organ function.
03 · Structural
Body Composition
DEXA scanning to track lean mass, visceral fat, bone density and sarcopenia risk.
04 · Genetic
Genomics
A permanent personalisation layer showing how your genes shape your response to exercise, nutrition and recovery.
Measure. Understand. Improve.

Escape Velocity combines wearable data, blood biomarkers, body composition, genetics and lifestyle information into a single personalised framework.

Rather than presenting disconnected charts and dashboards, the platform identifies trends, highlights opportunities for improvement and helps users understand which actions are likely to have the greatest impact.

Artificial intelligence provides continuous analysis while expert human oversight ensures recommendations remain practical, personalised and evidence-informed.

Our mission is simple: help people make better health decisions today so they can remain healthier, stronger and more capable for decades to come.

The Intelligence Layer

From raw data to better decisions.

The long-term vision is not another dashboard. It is an intelligent interpretation layer that helps people understand their biology and act with confidence.

Inputs
Health Data
Wearables, bloods, DEXA, blood pressure, genetics, nutrition, training and lifestyle signals.
Engine
AI + Expert Oversight
Pattern recognition, trend analysis, risk signals and personalised interpretation guided by human expertise.
Outputs
Actionable Protocols
Clear recommendations for recovery, performance, nutrition, body composition, hormones and longevity.
The Founders

Built by people who live it

Escape Velocity was born from a simple observation: people have access to more health information than ever before, yet are often more confused than ever.

As practitioners, coaches and lifelong students of health optimisation, we wanted to create a system that turns data into meaningful action.

We are building the platform while simultaneously running the full protocol ourselves.

The Ecosystem

Building in public.

Escape Velocity is more than a platform. It is an ongoing exploration into how data, artificial intelligence and human expertise can be combined to improve healthspan, performance and resilience.

As founders, we are documenting the journey in public — tracking our own biomarkers, training, recovery, body composition and longevity experiments while building the platform itself.

Follow our progress through the Founders Protocol, the Escape Velocity Journal and our public product roadmap.

Founders Protocol
Track the journey
Follow real-world data from Craig and Lara including wearables, blood biomarkers, DEXA scans, genomics, training performance and health optimisation experiments.
Escape Velocity Journal
Weekly updates
Insights from building the platform, testing new ideas, analysing health data and exploring the future of longevity, artificial intelligence and preventative health.

Founders Protocol

Mission control for human optimisation.

We believe longevity should be measured, not guessed.

As founders of Escape Velocity, we are publicly tracking our own journey through wearable data, blood biomarkers, DEXA scans, genomics, performance metrics and lifestyle interventions.

The protocol is currently being established and will be published as the first baseline dataset is completed.

Mission Status
Baseline build in progress
The first version of the Founders Protocol will track the relationship between daily wearable data, clinical biomarkers, training adaptation, recovery and long-term healthspan.
  • Garmin tracking active
  • 10 days of biomarker data logged
  • Biomarker panel defined
  • DEXA baseline booked
  • Genomics layer planned
  • AI interpretation layer in development
Craig
Performance + systems
Endurance training, HRV, blood pressure, biomarkers, strength, body composition and AI architecture.
Lara
Clinical + recovery
Hormonal health, nutrition, recovery, wearable data, performance preparation and clinical interpretation.
Active Experiment
Sleep + recovery
Tracking how training load, rest days, nutrition and recovery protocols affect sleep quality, energy and mood.
Coming Next
DEXA baseline
Body composition, lean mass, visceral fat and bone density will become the first major structural data layer.
Escape Velocity Journal

Building a Longevity Operating System in public.

The Journal documents the development of Escape Velocity, including founder experiments, biomarker analysis, training protocols, AI development and lessons learned along the way.

The first articles are now underway, starting with the origin story and the problem with fragmented health data.

Journal #001
Why We Are Building Escape Velocity
The origin story behind the platform, the problem with fragmented health data and why we believe interpretation is the missing layer.
Journal #002
The Problem With Modern Health Data
Why more data often means less clarity — and why the next evolution in health is better interpretation.
Journal #003
Designing The Founders Protocol
How we are designing the first internal dataset across wearables, bloods, DEXA, genomics, training and recovery.
Journal #004
The Recovery Paradox
How increasing training volume taught us that adaptation happens during recovery, not during the workout itself.
Latest Founder Insights
