About Moody Month
Moody Month is a health and wellness company focused on improving women’s hormonal health. Founded by Amy Thomson, Moody Month helps women understand and manage their moods, cycles, and overall well-being through personalized insights and advice.
The app’s mission is to empower women by providing knowledge and tools to track hormonal fluctuations and their impact on daily well-being. By combining hormonal data with lifestyle factors, Moody Month creates a holistic view of women’s health, encouraging users to embrace and manage their unique hormonal cycles. Available on both iOS and Android, the app is designed to make hormonal health accessible and actionable for all women.
The Challenge
Moody Month aimed to provide users with a comprehensive view of their hormonal health by integrating data from various wearable devices and health apps. This integration was necessary for displaying wearable data alongside manually inputted log data, allowing users to discover trends and patterns across their menstrual cycle. The challenge was to access and manage raw data focusing on daily averages, maximum, and minimum values for:
- Steps
- Distance
- Heart rate
- Sleep
- Temperature
- Glucose levels
They needed to integrate this data from a variety of devices and applications including:
- Apple Watch
- GoogleFit
- Samsung Health
- Fitbit
- Garmin
- Oura Ring
- Whoop
- Withings
- Polar
- Huawei Health
- Dexcom
“We needed a secure and efficient way to integrate wearable data into our platform to give our users a holistic view of their health,” said Ciara Ferguson, co-founder and Chief Data Scientist at Moody Month. “Developing all integrations in-house would not have allowed us to serve the breadth of users that we are now capable of supporting with Spike.”
