Hey everyone - I’ve been dealing with hair loss and got tired of “is it worse or is it just lighting/angle?”
So I built TrichoMetrics: a web app that analyzes standardized hair/scalp photos and outputs quantified metrics so you can track change over time.
What it does today (web beta):
-
Upload photos by region (frontal/hairline, crown/top, optional temples)
-
Get metrics like density, thinning, scalp exposure, Norwood stage, health score, and a confidence score
-
Set a baseline and see changes vs baseline over time
-
Track treatments (min/fin/etc) with reminders + simple adherence logging
-
Save progress photos + side-by-side compare
Quick note on photos:
-
If you open the web app on your phone, you can take new photos directly with the camera
-
If you use it on a PC, you can upload existing photos only
Early access limits:
-
Free plan only: 2 analyses/month(which is more then enough for tracking progress)
-
15-day cooldown between analyses
Coming soon (not live yet):
-
iOS + Android apps
-
Premium plan with more analyses per month (and additional power-user features)
What I need from you (honest feedback):
-
Are the metrics actually useful or just “cool”?
-
What would you want to see to trust it more? (standardized capture, trends, reports, etc.)
-
If this works for you, what would you pay for? (more analyses/month, exports, deeper insights)

Not medical advice/diagnosis — the goal is objective tracking. If you try it and it sucks, tell me. If it’s useful, tell me why.
