Hey Product Hunt 👋 Thanks for hunting us @hnshah 🙏 I'm Nick, the CEO & Co-founder here at Sunnyside Super excited to share what we've been working on 👇 47% of US adults are interested in cutting back their alcohol intake. 1 in 3 drink an unhealthy amount, meaning alcohol is having an outsized impact on health and longevity for more than 68M adults in the US alone. Yet fewer than 2% of drinkers take proactive action to change their drinking habits. The question we asked ourselves is *why*, given that half of us want to make a change to our drinking habits, do so few people get started? 🤔 💡 We believe we’ve found the answer. Until now, our options have been extremely limited, with virtually every service in the alcohol health space purpose built (and branded) towards achieving complete sobriety. For the millions of us who want to make a change but aren’t interested in quitting entirely, we’ve been left without options. At ☀️Sunnyside☀️ we’ve been working on a science-backed approach to help people cut back on drinking, and make positive lifestyle changes built around moderation and mindfulness. We're excited to share our app with the PH community today, so you can experience a new path to more mindful drinking that doesn’t revolve around an all-or-nothing philosophy. Having already helped more than 150,000 people achieve their healthier drinking goals, we’re leading the way in providing a much-needed alternative to those seeking balance vs. absolute zero when it comes to their drinking. Today, we’re excited to announce our new iOS app and member community, which take the Sunnyside experience to the next level. ---------- 👉👉👉 We’re offering a free 15-day trial, plus a special 20% discount just for Product Hunters (click the link above and the coupon will automatically apply).

Here's one more feature you'll love: 📅 Dry(ish) January Challenge: With the new year fast approaching, many individuals attempt a fully sober January. Although this can be a great reset for your body, many struggle to maintain this once February rolls around, and fall back into old habits. We’ve developed a unique feature in Sunnyside to choose how you want to participate in a January health reset. You can select from various options of how you want to participate in Dry(ish) January: - A full month of sobriety - Only drinking on weekends - Reducing your consumption by 50% - Or fully customizing your plan to your needs After opting in, we’ll work with you to stick to your specific intention, and also help you taper back to a good place once February rolls around. ---------- Common questions we get asked: 🧠 What is Mindful Drinking? Mindful drinking is more than an idea. It’s a movement. A community growing larger by the day. Put simply, it’s all about thinking while drinking. Mindful drinking is not about quitting alcohol, but instead being intentional about when you drink, aware of how much you’re drinking, and paying attention to its impact on you in the moment. It’s about recognizing the reasons for and the ramifications of drinking. It’s about improving your relationship with alcohol so you maximize enjoyment and minimize negative side effects like hangovers, regrets, and anxiety. ☀️ Who is Sunnyside for? Sunnyside is for anyone who drinks alcohol, especially those who want to explore the positive benefits of drinking more mindfully. Whether you just want to learn and understand more about your own drinking habits, or you want to reduce your consumption, your journey is fully customized and prepared for YOU. ---------- We’re excited to share Sunnyside with the Product Hunt audience.

Vey wise idea..Congrats on your launch and to the team!@nick_allen8

Timely launch with New Years Resolutions coming up. I like alcohol and won't be quitting, but I find it less enjoyable the older I get, especially when it affects my sleep or physical well-being the following day (when I drink more than a few glasses).

Pretty cool and I like the overall intention and design. Curious why limit it to alcohol only? Couldn't this be used for any habit we'd like to break?

Love the concept! Would love to see it expanding beyond just alcohol! Congrats on the launch!

This product looks great and i'm excited to give it a try! Wondering if this is supported on smart watches? That's where I track most of my health activity

Avoiding poor decisions, starting with the first one: one less drink at a time—great mission! Excited to see where the team takes this, congrats on the 🚀!

I'm one of the co-founders of Sunnyside along with @nick_allen8 and I'm incredibly proud and excited about the progress we've made in the past year, and the tens of thousands of lives we've positively impacted. Thanks to everyone who is supporting us and our mission to improve drinking habits in a positive, uplifting way!

@nick_allen8 the product looks very interesting, congrats on the launch 🚀

@nick_allen8 good luck on your inspiring mission 🙏 looks great!

Now I can manage my drinking habits! Kudos @nick_allen8 !

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

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.

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.”

I am so excited to have found an app that helps us drink more mindfully and moderate our consumption. Congrats on launching Sunnyside!

Congrats on your launch! Looks interesting.

something exciting!!

This is cool. Congratulations on the launch 🎉

Signed up, looking forward to my plan.

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!
