I’m researching voice + Inito hormone tracking and would love input from other Inito users
Hi everyone!
I hope it's ok to post here, hoping to get feedback from other Inito users!
I'm currently researching how hormonal fluctuations correlate to voice changes across the menstrual cycle. I built a mobile app to record daily speech tasks and comparing them with my Inito hormones and Oura data. There’s research showing hormones can affect the voice, but very little work connects voice changes to daily measured hormone levels like E3G, LH, PdG, and FSH.
Screen recording of the app I built and how the daily speech tasks work:

Until recently, this kind of daily hormone data wasn’t really accessible outside clinics or labs. I thought this could create a new opportunity: if enough people are already collecting hormone data with tools like Inito, maybe we can start building the kind of longitudinal women’s health datasets that historically haven’t been funded or prioritized.
The long-term hope is to explore whether voice could become a low-cost, non-invasive signal that adds another layer of insight for hormonal health — from cycle tracking and fertility, to conditions like PMDD/PCOS/endometriosis, and potentially even areas like postpartum mental health screening.
I presented my own dataset at a Hackathon and my results have been promising enough that I’m now speaking with researchers/labs in the US and EU about whether this could become a larger pilot study.
So I wanted to ask this community:
- Would you be interested in contributing voice + Inito data to a research-style project if privacy and consent were handled clearly?
Right now I've been manually translating my data into analysis, so I'm trying to determine whether I should invest in building out a feature for all users to make it easy to upload Inito data into my app.
I’m not affiliated with Inito, and I’m not selling anything. I’m trying to gauge whether there’s real interest before I build Inito import features and before I ask the professors I’m speaking with for advice on the right research/data-collection path.
HUGE thanks in advance!! I really appreciate any thoughts / feedback / criticism. I'm also working on putting together a doc overview of how data privacy works, which I know is extremely sensitive, especially in relation to women's health.
