Excited to launch Nootrobox (www.nootrobox.com) today! We have two goals:
1.) we want to make it drop-dead convenient to use nootropic stacks, and
2.) make nootropics more accessible and safer to a wider community of people.<p>We've been curious about nootropics for awhile and have experimented with different stacks, and it was a huge pain to buy everything in bulk and mix the right proportions of compounds together. The goal of Nootrobox is to abstract that pain away so it's as convenient to taking a vitamin.<p>Nootropics is somewhat of a mysterious and shady concept for most people, and we want to fix that. Many people take supplements for maximizing physical performance, and there's very little social stigma for that. But for cognitive supplements, the response is much more wary. We want to make mental supplements just as mainstream and commonplace because we ourselves have felt the effectiveness of nootropics.<p>So Nootrobox is going for convenience and accessibility. Our first stack “Rise” is actually based off a common mix of Bacopa monnieri, L-theanine, and caffeine.<p>We're providing a limited 15% discount to our first 500 orders and we're letting you guys know about this first here. We also have a referral program that gives $5 discount/credit for each person that buys through your referral link!<p>Would love to hear your feedback.
You got tired of packing your own capsules, so now you want to start packing other peoples capsules for money? This title doesn't make much sense.<p>I do like the idea though, it can be a strenuous task filling capsules one at a time for a months worth of supplements. I would recommend The Capsule Machine (<a href="http://www.amazon.com/The-Capsule-Machine-00-Kit/dp/B006OQ4316" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/The-Capsule-Machine-00-Kit/dp/B006OQ43...</a>) for anyone who would like to do it themselves more efficiently.

The submitter included a text description of the project, but those don't show up if the post has a URL. You need to post it as a comment in a thread.
To be honest I like this type of thing and I would have impulse-bought this on the spot if it weren't for the fact that it's a pre-order, and now I just looked on amazon for a competing product and got it shipped to me prime.<p>I understand how in these days of crowd funding everyone wants to eliminate all risk in launching new products and I'm sure it works sometimes and when it doesn't you the product-launcher don't lose much. But these are also days of consumer impatience (at least with me). This isn't a video game or a robot or something you're making, why not just order some powder and make an initial batch before launching this? The cost of doing so can't be that big relative to the cost of getting the site up.
While we're in a smart* thread, does anyone have recommendations for cognition-improving apps? I've been practicing with "Coach memory!"

1. I'd rather drink coffee than take a capsule with caffein
2. How does this compare with Alpha Brain (<a href="https://www.onnit.com/alphabrain/" rel="nofollow">https://www.onnit.com/alphabrain/</a>)?
Very cool, your mission of open-sourcing the nootropic supplements industry is very similar to <a href="http://naturalstacks.com" rel="nofollow">http://naturalstacks.com</a><p>It will be interesting to watch you two evolve together.
The FAQ links to abstracts. Have you read the full papers or just the abstracts?<p>The title bar is fixed. This is not a pleasant experience on iOS.<p>The site is nice! Text was clean and readable.<p>Good Luck!
