The foot-at-risk platform

Own your foot record. Catch risk earlier.

OpenFootLab helps people at foot risk build a living Foot Passport — a private, portable record of photos, scans, measurements, inserts, wounds, surgeries, and care history.

Because foot risk is not just a diagnosis. It is pressure, shape, skin, temperature, time, and the daily changes most systems miss.

OpenFootLab founder

“I personally see my foot health as my #1 condition — not diabetes. Diabetes increases complications and risk — yes. But the foot is what I manage.”

— the founder · type-1 diabetic, post-amputation, healing
Why earlier matters
18.6M

diabetic foot ulcers worldwide each year — the most-studied at-risk foot.

>70%

mortality within five years of a major amputation — higher than many cancers.

~65%

of healed ulcers recur within five years — the record is what catches the next one.

Diabetic-foot figures shown as the anchor — the most-studied at-risk foot. Sources: peer-reviewed literature incl. JAMA (2023). OpenFootLab serves every at-risk foot — diabetes, neuropathy, poor circulation, surgery, prior wounds, deformity, and more. Diabetes is our deepest expertise, not our only one.

How we're built

Built by a foot at risk — not a pitch deck.

OpenFootLab is months of unpacking, testing, building, and verifying — self-funded, out of pocket, by one person managing a foot at risk. The human in the loop is the founder. No venture capital. No investors to answer to. No data-broker model hiding in the fine print.

Every claim on this site is verified, vetted, and defendable — a working proof of concept, not a promise. If we can't show the proof, we don't make the claim.

I know the pain, because I live it. And I know exactly where the care team drops off — respectfully. Not from any failing of theirs, but because a clinic visit is a snapshot, and a foot at risk changes by the day. That gap — between visits, on the foot you can't feel — is the whole reason this exists.

Self-funded No VC Founder-tested Your data, never ours Verified & defendable
Why it matters

Risk comes from many places. The problem is the same.

Diabetes Poor circulation Neuropathy Surgery Prior wounds Amputation Deformity Pressure Aging Mobility challenges

Small changes can become serious when they are missed.

What you track

Document the foot over time

OpenFootLab helps people and caregivers keep a living record — and turns it into something a clinician can read in minutes.

Photos over time

A visual history of the foot so change is obvious side by side.

Notes & daily checks

Quick daily entries build a habit and a timeline of how the foot feels.

Footwear records

What was worn, and when — footwear is often the hidden variable.

Offloading history

Pads, inserts, and devices used — what worked and what didn't.

Wound history

Track sites, healing, and recurrence in one continuous record.

Temperature observations

Warmth can precede a problem — log it and watch the trend.

Clinician-ready timelines

Everything above assembles into a clear, chronological summary — so a clinician sees the whole trajectory of the foot at a glance, not a scramble of loose photos and memories.

How it works

One photo a day. A daily read of your foot.

Your foot may not feel what's happening — an at-risk foot can go quiet. So OpenFootLab gives it a second set of eyes that never gets tired.

Observations, not a diagnosis.
Your daily foot report

Take one photo. On your own device, the OpenFootLab vision model reads it and hands you a short, plain-language report:

What it sees today

Skin, color, spots, drainage, the surgery or amputation site, swelling.

What changed

Measured against your own baseline — your normal is the yardstick, not a stranger's foot.

Where to focus

The areas worth a closer look — and worth bringing to your care team.

Private by design. It runs on your own hardware, in your home — your photos never leave the house, never touch the cloud. It doesn't diagnose and doesn't replace anyone; it helps you notice earlier, and hands your care team a clear place to look.

Your own box

A small device on your desk that is your Foot Passport — it holds your records and runs your daily report, fully private. A serious condition gets a serious tool, the same way a diabetic owns a meter or CGM. You own the machine, you own the record.

Or free, hosted by us

No compute? Use our free hosted model — so nobody is gated from their own daily foot read by hardware cost. We read your photo and hand back the report; we don't keep it. Just want to try it? Start with a phone and a folder.

Freddy — your fren in the room

Daily foot care shouldn't feel like a chore or a scare. Freddy is the friendly nudge that keeps you showing up — gentle reminders, real encouragement when you string clean days together, and pro tips learned the hard way. On the hard days, he's the one who says "today's job isn't to beat the world — it's to heal." He cheers you on; your care team makes the calls.

With your care team

We don't replace your care team.
We make every visit count.

Your care team is essential. OpenFootLab is the layer in between — so you're a better-informed patient, and they get the full picture.

Your record travels with you

Your history, your allergies, both feet — owned by you, ready for every provider, every visit. Nothing important has to depend on memory.

The visit is a snapshot — your foot lives every day

Walk in with a month of evidence, not a vague “it's been bothering me.”

Both feet, always

When one foot is healing, the other is carrying the load — and the foot that's fine today is working overtime tomorrow. Prevention doesn't take turns.

Clinician-ready, in a tap

Everything assembles into a clear timeline you can share — so the appointment counts.

From record to relief

When the record points to pressure, we build the relief.

The same platform that tracks your foot can turn that record into a custom, 3D-printed offloading insert — designed around your pressure map and printed in durable TPU with a soft, skin-safe top cover.
