In plain English

Defog helps people with ongoing brain fog find out what might be causing it. Users do a quick daily check-in on sleep, meals, caffeine, stress, screen time, exercise, water and supplements. The app spots patterns, suggests small tests and sends weekly and monthly reports, with a subscription. TrustMRR shows about $90 a month in recurring revenue, and it is not a medical diagnosis.
