Biolytics solves a very concrete annoyance: routine blood work generates a growing pile of reports, and no single place shows how a value such as cholesterol, ferritin or vitamin D has moved over the years. The app lets you import a report — either by photographing a paper printout or by scanning a QR code supplied by a participating laboratory — and it uses AI-based recognition to pull out the individual biomarkers. Each one is then displayed with a trend graph and a short explanatory description so you can interpret it without a medical background.
A key design choice is data ownership. Your lab data is stored inside the app on your own device and, as the project states, is never sent to an external server. That local-first approach makes Biolytics attractive to people who are uncomfortable uploading sensitive health records to a cloud service, and it also means the tool works as a long-term personal archive rather than a one-off analysis.
The project is developed and maintained by an independent developer, Mattia Canevascini, in collaboration with biondi.ch, and is available in English, German, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese variants. The current phase focuses on importing, storing and visualizing biomarkers, with additional features described as planned for future versions; feedback from users is actively solicited. Biolytics is free to use.
