Opportunity Thesis

Launch 'Peptide Finder,' a directory mapping the 50+ US compounding pharmacies (like Empower or Hallandale) that stock the newly reclassified 'RFK 12' (BPC-157, PT-141, etc.). Use Next.js + Supabase to track availability and pricing. Monetize via $99/mo 'Pro' access for longevity clinics or a $49 'Patient Pass' for direct-to-pharmacy scripts. Mitigate legal risk by positioning as a 'data aggregator' rather than a medical provider.

Why Now

Regulatory clarity turns 'research chemicals' into 'prescribable wellness,' unlocking mainstream payment processing and advertising.

Regulatory moats are the best moats. If these move to compounding, the gray market goes white and the volume explodes.
