WHY WE BUILT THIS
It started with concert tickets.
I bought concert tickets weeks in advance. When the night finally arrived, I felt like crap and didn't want to go. Cue the feelings of guilt for the money I had already spent — I stayed home.
I scheduled a second-round interview I was excited for. I woke up feeling foggy and like I couldn't focus. Several times in the interview, I lost track of what I was saying and left it feeling disappointed. Why couldn't I get it together? What was wrong with me?
Then, I remembered to check my cycle tracker. It all made sense — but a little too late for both my tickets and my interview. My frustration sparked a simple question: what if my cycle information was already there when I was making plans?
I brought the idea to the people I hold the closest: my wife, Lauren, my brother, Taylor, and sister-in-law, Megan, and together we started building Simone — a simple way to bring the cycle information you already have into the calendar you already use.
Sometimes better planning doesn't require more information. It just requires the right information at the right time. I hope Simone changes your life the way it's changed mine.
