Risk/Opportunity

Our main risk is the fierce competition in this market, new competitors keep appearing, the biggest competitors are in the leading position. 

However, these products focus on one use goal (fitness, menstrual tracking) and show the following common points:
1. simple functions with complicated steps,
2. other types of users are excluded.

Our opportunity is to launch a product, that focus on users daily lives, provide a platform for them to explore, understand more about themselves and have the opportunity to discover other needs. They could use our product as main platform that extends to other related app, from that we establish a products system, to achieve greater market share and brand loyalty.

Competition

Our main competitors are Fitbit, Clue, these products provide record function, as well as food recipes, exercise videos.

The biggest advantage of Fitbit is that the brand has a leading position in the wearable device market. The product focus on fitness, their current plan is to cooperate with the medical industry to expand the market since the wearable tracker market is shrinking.

Clue features female leadership and professional approved articles as its brand characteristics. It attracts and gains the support of female users. The app’s main function is menstrual period and pregnancy period tracking. The logging function focuses on the user’s perception rather than the actual data. The brand aim to be an accompany of women self-growth and occupy a unique position in the lives of users as its advantage.
