Oh my gosh, this is the startup I considered starting last year when this issue became personal to me and I wrapped my brain around the complexity of insulin dosing.

There are a lot of challenges here but we absolutely need an external "brain" to correlate many data points, some trends, and reasonably estimate current insulin sensitivity.

I'd love to chat - send me an email at sam@replica.health . An accurate time-varying insulin sensitivity model is one of our big projects.
Good luck with Replica! I built something sort of similar for my family (my 8 yo has T1D and a lot of life-threatening food allergies): https://saltie.app. Happy to chat as well, I can create an account for anyone interested, and I can share what I’ve learned in making this.
I formerly used to work in the diabetes management space, and I too would be interested in chatting seeing as I have acquired some modeling expertise in the meantime.
