Founding beta sign-ups are open · Help shape a calmer way to navigate food

Help clients arrive with a clearer, better-organised record.

Gutward gives clients a consent-based way to record food, symptoms, bowel patterns and food reintroductions as they happen — so less of your appointment time goes on reconstructing what happened since the last one.

Representing a healthcare organisation, NHS team or Health Innovation Network? See Gutward for healthcare partners.

Clients get structured self-management tools — logging, protocol tracking and food trials today. An active Gutward Professional subscriber will be able to sponsor Gutward+ access for their connected clients. Sponsored Plus lasts only while both the professional connection and the professional's own subscription stay active — a client is never charged twice for it, and it doesn't start an automatic charge when it ends. If the professional connection or subscription ends, sponsored Plus ends too, but the client keeps their Gutward account, history and data, and can continue on Free or choose personal Plus at the standard price. Sponsored Gutward+ isn't something a professional can set up themselves yet, and it depends on paid professional subscriptions, which aren't purchasable today.

You get clearer, client-entered information and continuity between consultations — not a replacement for your clinical judgement, your primary clinical record, or emergency communication with a client.

Important context is easily lost between appointments

Food, symptoms, bowel changes and reintroductions are often recorded in different places — or recalled weeks later. Gutward gives clients a structured record and reduces how much of an appointment goes on reconstructing what happened, without making any diagnosis or automatic treatment decision on their behalf.

Scattered records

Meals, symptoms and food trials kept across notes, apps and memory.

Retrospective recall

Details reconstructed later rather than recorded when they happened.

Missing context

Relevant changes are difficult to review together before an appointment.

Available in beta

Every item below has working code behind it today, verified directly against the live product — not a plan or a mock-up.

Keep important client context organised with private professional notes that are not visible to the client, alongside secure, consent-based messaging.

Available in beta

Structured client records

Meals, symptoms and bowel patterns, recorded by the client in one organised place.
Available in beta

Guided food trials

Staged exposure and observation steps, with the outcome saved to the client's food record.
Available in beta

Personal food picture

Foods organised as tolerated, not tolerated, monitoring or untested.
Available in beta

Connected history

Relevant entries reviewed chronologically instead of relying entirely on recall.
Available in beta

Consent-based client connections

Invite a client by email; they must explicitly accept before you see anything. Either side can end the connection at any time.
Available in beta

Appointments

Schedule and manage appointments with connected clients, with an optional note visible to the client.
Available in beta

Weight check-ins

Clients can log their own weight, or you can record it for them during a session — always clearly attributed.
Available in beta

Private professional notes

Record and organise confidential working notes for each connected client. These notes are kept separate from client-visible information, and are visible only to you — never shared with the client or another professional. Deleted with the client's account if they delete it.
Available in beta

Dietitian-created plans

Build a plan and assign it directly to a specific client; they see it once you publish it.
Available in beta

Consent-based messaging

Communicate directly with connected clients inside Gutward. Messaging access depends on an active professional connection and ends when consent is withdrawn. Not suitable for emergencies, and not continuously monitored. Unread messages are tracked so nothing gets missed.

Self-service professional onboarding

In development

Self-service onboarding is in development. During the professional beta, applications are reviewed and accounts are set up personally.

Limited to 10 founding dietitians

The Founding Dietitian Programme

We're inviting a small first group of registered dietitians to use Gutward with real clients, shape what we build next, and lock in founding pricing.

  • Limited to the first 10 founding dietitians.
  • Free 90-day pilot — no setup fee, no payment card required to start.
  • Begin with around 2–5 suitable clients.
  • Personal onboarding and direct support from the founder.
  • No long-term contract, no obligation to endorse Gutward, and no requirement to move your whole practice onto Gutward.
  • Roadmap influence and structured feedback opportunities.

After the 90-day pilot, continuing is optional at £29/month for a Solo account (1 practitioner), protected while you stay continuously subscribed — not a price held for life. The standard rate after that is £39/month. Solo includes unlimited connected clients, subject to fair use. See full professional pricing for annual options and exact figures.

Clinic and team tools—including colleague invitations, roles, permissions and care-team assignment—are working in an invitation-only beta. Practice and Clinic subscriptions are not yet available through self-service checkout, and professional accounts are currently set up manually.

You can register interest in a Practice or Clinic plan from the professional pricing page; doing so doesn't reserve or guarantee founding pricing. Solo and the Founding Dietitian Programme pilot are the two ways to start today.

Future opportunities:

  • Optional directory listing once the professional directory is built.
  • Being featured in Gutward's own promotion and content.
  • Opportunities to contribute expert content shown to clients.

These are opportunities we intend to open up, not features available today.

Gutward does not yet use automated registration verification. Applications are reviewed manually before professional access is granted. Any future public directory listing will require appropriate professional-registration checks, including where a protected professional title is used.

Planned

Client summaries & reports

Turn day-to-day records into a clear, reviewable summary for appointments.

Planned

Professional directory

Optional public profiles for appropriately registered professionals, subject to registration checks.

Help shape something useful in practice

Gutward is being built from lived experience of Crohn's disease, restrictive diets and food reintroduction. Professional input is essential to make sure its language, reports and workflows are genuinely useful — and remain within appropriate clinical boundaries.

We'd welcome input on:

  • Which information clients commonly forget or struggle to organise.
  • What makes a summary useful before an appointment.
  • What should be excluded to avoid noise or misinterpretation.
  • How food-trial context should be presented.
  • Appropriate language and safety boundaries.

We're currently inviting registered dietitians with an interest in IBD, autoimmune conditions, elimination diets or food reintroduction. Please don't include any client or patient details when you get in touch.

Designed to support — not replace — professional judgement

Gutward is an organisational and self-observation tool. It is not remote patient monitoring, a diagnostic aid, clinical decision support, or a replacement for your own professional clinical record. It must not be used for emergency or time-critical communication with a client.

See our Terms of use for the full terms that apply to registered professionals.
