Find the pattern behind your gut symptoms — without another supplement, kit, or diagnosis.
A three-minute assessment names your pattern in plain language. Then a calm coach helps you work with it.
Free, anonymous, about three minutes. No supplements. We do not diagnose.
What this is not
Naming the boundary up front, because it sharpens what the product actually does.
Not a doctor.
We do not name a condition for you. If you need a diagnosis, please see a GP.
No supplements, ever.
We do not sell them and we do not affiliate-promote them. No brand names. No doses.
No miracle copy.
No weight-loss claims, no cure, no detox, no shame. Bodies are slower than apps.
What the assessment names
Five behavioural patterns. None of these are diagnoses. They describe how a person currently relates to their gut symptoms.
Pattern
The Avoider
Restriction-first, fear-of-trigger eating.
Pattern
The Firefighter
Chasing acute symptoms, light on base habits.
Pattern
The Detective
Over-tracking, microbiome-curious, low practice.
Pattern
The Stressor
Anxiety drives most of the loop.
Pattern
The Pleaser
You eat to fit the room, not your body.

This is, and this is not
Plain about what you are paying for and what you are not.
This is
- Behavioural coaching, in plain language.
- Honest gut-brain education with cited primary sources.
- A small set of guided practice sessions.
- An AI coach that ends a session when it ends.
This is not
- Not a diagnostic tool.
- Not a substitute for a GP or a registered dietitian.
- Not a weight-loss product.
- Not a probiotic or supplement store.
The gut–brain axis, plainly
The gut and the nervous system are wired together. Stress influences gut motility, sensitivity, and microbial balance; gut signals in turn shape mood and attention. None of this means your symptoms are imagined — it means the lever that helps most is rarely just food. The work is to notice the pattern, settle the nervous system, and build small habits the body recognises.
Sources will be cited on /method when the canonical content hub ships. We will name the clinician reviewer and a last-reviewed date on every health page.
Common questions
- Is this an IBS app?
- No. We do not name a condition for you. We help you see your pattern in plain behavioural language. If you suspect a clinical condition, please see a GP.
- Will this replace my doctor?
- No. If you have new, severe, or persistent symptoms — abdominal pain, blood in stool, unexplained weight loss, trouble swallowing — see a GP first.
- Do you recommend probiotics?
- No specific brands and no doses. We explain at a reading level what the evidence does and does not say. We will not affiliate-sell anything.
- Is there an elimination diet?
- Not as a default. If a brief, structured trial helps for a specific pattern, we will say so honestly — and we will not push restriction. We screen for restriction patterns before suggesting anything in that direction.
- Is my data private?
- Yes. We do not sell data. Your assessment answers are tied to your account, not to advertising profiles. Account deletion clears them. Free-text answers are excluded from analytics.
- Can I cancel?
- One click in your account. There is a seven-day no-questions refund window on the paid plan.
- Is this therapy?
- No. Gut Pattern Coach is a self-help and education tool. It is not therapy, not a medical device, and not a diagnostic service.
- How long is the assessment?
- About three minutes for most people. Around 22 short questions. You can stop and come back; your draft is saved on this device.
Private by default. Safe by design.
Free-text answers are excluded from analytics. The assessment is anonymous before you create an account.
- No account needed to start the assessment.
- Crisis resources one tap away on every screen.
- Not a substitute for medical care.
