Sunnyside - Cut back on alcohol & drink more mindfully without quitting

Sunnyside is the only alcohol planning, tracking and coaching app that focuses on mindfulness and moderation, not sobriety. Cut back on drinking (or simply build healthier habits) without feeling pressured to quit. Available for iOS and web/SMS.

The app is great - you don't have to go cold turkey, just a bit more mindful

Thanks @wooyi. That's exactly right, for most people just being more mindful or cutting back a bit is incredibly helpful, and can lead to a new outlook on how alcohol fits into their lives. Appreciate you checking us out.

@wooyi All good things in moderation ;)

This is a really cool idea! I love the fact that you're focused on improving habits without requiring sobriety or making people feel bad for not being fully sober.

Thanks @jonathan_gans1. Removing shame, guilt, and the pressure to quit entirely is core to our philosophy, so I really appreciate the comment. Reducing alcohol by a bit, or simply building healthier habits like rotating in more water or not drinking before bed, can have big positive impact!

@iandersen I couldn't agree more, that's awesome to hear!

I asked chatgpt about your idea, “It sounds like a potentially interesting and useful startup idea. Many people may be interested in cutting back on their alcohol consumption or developing healthier habits related to alcohol use, but may not want to completely abstain from drinking. A app that helps users track and plan their alcohol intake and provides coaching on mindfulness and moderation could be a helpful tool for these individuals. It's also a good idea to make the app available on both iOS and web/SMS platforms, as this will make it more accessible to a wider audience.” I then asked for a bit more negative input that might actually be of value “It's important to consider both the potential benefits and potential drawbacks of any startup idea. One potential concern with an alcohol planning, tracking, and coaching app that focuses on moderation rather than sobriety is that it may not be suitable for individuals who have a more severe alcohol use disorder or who have experienced negative consequences as a result of their alcohol consumption. In these cases, complete abstinence from alcohol may be the most appropriate and safest course of action. It's also important to consider the potential risks associated with any app that promotes alcohol use, such as the potential for increased harm due to binge drinking or irresponsible behavior. It would be important for the app to include appropriate disclaimers and warnings, and to provide resources and referrals for individuals who may need more intensive support for their alcohol use. It would also be important for the app to ensure that it is in compliance with any relevant laws and regulations regarding the promotion and sale of alcohol.”

This is amazing!! Honestly, very well thought out support mechanism to help people reach their goals. Peer pressure, social obligations, and just the stresses of life can be tough to navigate on one's own. Great work!

@jbear36 exactly.. there are a ton of reasons and triggers to drink all around us. We hope to be the friend in your pocket to help push back on the temptation, and keep drinking 100% on your terms.
