Medication guidance for sufferin' Austinites.
One personalized SMS at 7am Central. We read this morning's pollen, pick the right pill from your rotation, and text it to you. That's it.
Three quick steps. Then mornings get one text easier.
Phone, ZIP, your pills
Drop your number, your Austin ZIP, and check off the OTC antihistamines you already keep on hand. We work from your rotation — never anything new.
One quick code by SMS
We text you a six-digit code to confirm the number's yours, then a short consent step. No account, no password, no app to install.
One text at 7am Central
Every morning we read Austin's pollen forecast — cedar, oak, grass, ragweed — match it to a rule, and pick the right pill from your list. You take it, the day starts.
Set up your daily text.
Six fields, two consent boxes, and a phone verification. Sign-up goes live the moment carrier registration clears.
What "cedar 4/5" actually means.
Every daily text references the Universal Pollen Index — a 0–5 scale calibrated to allergic-response severity, not just particle count. Same scale, every morning.
Universal Pollen Index
Scale used in every achoo.fyi text.
The questions a skeptic would ask.
Is this medical advice?
No. achoo.fyi is informational. It picks from over-the-counter pills you already take, based on a public pollen forecast. Always follow dosage instructions on the package and check with a healthcare provider before changing what you take.
Why text instead of an app?
An app you have to open is one more thing to forget. A text at 7am, before coffee, is one decision already made. The discipline is the product.
What does it cost?
Free. It's a personal project for friends and neighbors. Standard SMS rates from your carrier may apply.
What about Austin mold?
The pollen API we use doesn't cover mold yet. We know — it matters here. It's on the list for v2.
