Shotsy alternative: how Pep AI compares

    Short answer

    Shotsy is a well-rated GLP-1 shot tracker with a generous free tier. Pep AI is the alternative if you also track peptides or mix your own vials, or want photo and barcode food logging, progress photos and an AI assistant in the same app as your doses. Pep AI needs a subscription for tracking.

    Shotsy and Pep AI overlap on the core of GLP-1 tracking: logging shots, reminders, injection sites, side effects and weight. They differ in scope. Shotsy is built around GLP-1 medications and keeps most of its tracking free. Pep AI covers GLP-1s and other peptides, handles vials and reconstitution, and puts food logging on the same timeline as your doses. Here is how they compare, using what each company says about its own app.

    Shotsy at a glance

    Shotsy (listed on the App Store as "Shotsy GLP-1 Tracker", from Shotsy Co.) is a dedicated GLP-1 tracker. Its listing names Ozempic, Wegovy, the Wegovy pill, Mounjaro, Zepbound, Rybelsus, Saxenda, Victoza and Trulicity, and it supports several medications at once with separate schedules. It is rated 4.8 from 32,668 ratings on the US App Store.

    Most of Shotsy is free. Its free-tracker page lists shot and dose logging, reminders, injection site rotation, side-effect logging and weight charts as free, and places the estimated medication level chart and Apple Health or Health Connect sync in its paid Shotsy+ tier. Shotsy's site also describes PDF export for your care team and dose planning, and says pill tracking is available on iOS.

    Who each one suits

    Neither app is right for everyone, and the honest split is mostly about scope and price.

    When is Shotsy the better choice?

    If you take one prescribed GLP-1 and mainly want a clean shot log with reminders, site rotation and a weight chart, Shotsy covers that without a subscription. Its paid tier adds the level chart and health sync, and it offers PDF export and dose planning.

    When is Pep AI the better choice?

    If your routine goes beyond a single GLP-1 pen. Pep AI tracks peptides as well as GLP-1s, keeps each vial's reconstitution details and converts doses into syringe units, and runs cycles and stacks. It also logs food by photo, barcode, restaurant menu scan or search, with protein, fiber and water against goals, so meals and symptoms sit next to your doses. Progress photos and Pep Bot, an AI assistant for educational questions, are built in.

    Switching from Shotsy to Pep AI

    There is no automatic import between the two apps, so the practical approach is to start fresh with what matters going forward and keep your old history for reference.

    • Add your medication with its current schedule and your usual injection day.
    • Log your most recent dose with its date and site, so reminders and rotation start from the right place.
    • Enter your current weight and a goal; earlier weigh-ins can come in through Apple Health or Health Connect if your scale wrote them there.
    • Keep a PDF or screenshots of your Shotsy history if you want your older records for appointments.

    Key takeaways

    • Both apps cover shots, reminders, injection sites, side effects and weight.
    • Shotsy keeps most GLP-1 tracking free; its level chart and health sync are in Shotsy+.
    • Pep AI adds peptides, vials and reconstitution, and photo, barcode and menu food logging, on a paid subscription.
    • Pick on scope: a single GLP-1 shot log, or everything around it in one place.

    Everything around the shot, in one app.
