Our Story
How we got here, and where we're going.
A timeline for our Slayers. Every hot flash, every 3am wake-up, and every "wait, is this normal?" helped shape this. Here's the whole story so far.
Chapter one
It started with a question nobody was answering
The early days
PeriSlayer is born
An iOS wellness app for women navigating perimenopause. You track what's happening (the sweats, the rage, the brain fog, the sleep that left the chat) and PeriSlayer surfaces the patterns you'd never spot on your own.
A companion, not a clipboard
We decided early: PeriSlayer is a wellness companion, not a medical device. No diagnosing, no lecturing. Just a very smart friend who takes notes.
Chapter two
We gave it a name, a face, and an attitude
Brand building
perislayer.com is ours
Domain locked down, plus the handles on TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook. Nobody else gets to be PeriSlayer. We checked.
Purple, teal, and a logo that means business
The palette you're looking at right now. Purple for the drama, teal for the calm. Both required.
The voice: warm, funny, a little sarcastic
Because perimenopause is ridiculous enough without being talked to like a pamphlet.
Chapter three
We made it official
Paperwork era
PeriSlayer LLC, Pennsylvania
A real company, filed in Pennsylvania. Solo founder, one very determined woman, zero venture capital.
Chapter four
We built the actual thing
Heads down
The iOS app takes shape
Built natively for iPhone. A Home tab for tracking, a More tab with Inspo playlists made for perimenopause moods (rage playlist included), and a Peri Fact of the Day: a woman who did something remarkable on this day in history. And yes, it says “Hi Slayers” when you open it.
perislayer.com goes live
Home of the free perimenopause quiz and a growing Learn library of plain-English articles. Latest addition: testosterone for perimenopause, because someone had to write it.
Right now
Beta. The Slayers have entered the chat.
September 2026
iOS beta is nearly wrapped
Our TestFlight testers have been poking, prodding, and telling us exactly what's wrong. We love them for it. The iPhone beta is in its final stretch.
Beta testers never pay. Ever.
If you're in the beta, you're a legacy Slayer. Your account stays free for life, on iPhone and Android, and you will never see a paywall. That's our thank-you for being here first.
Android is being built
A native Android version is underway, sharing the same brain as the iOS app. Android beta is open testing, meaning anyone can jump in, and Android beta testers get the same lifetime legacy deal.
Featured on BetaList
September 2026 also put us on BetaList, the early-adopter playground where new products debut. The Slayers keep finding their way in.
Featured on BuildList
And in the same month, BuildList featured us too, right in front of the builders and makers who love watching something take shape.
Coming up
What's next
Late September 2026 and beyond
Android launches
Late September 2026. Google Play, open testing, everyone welcome.
Subscriptions arrive on the App Store
Around mid-to-late October 2026, PeriSlayer starts taking paid subscriptions on iPhone. New Slayers subscribe. Beta Slayers keep sailing for free, as promised.
More in the Learn library
New plain-language perimenopause articles keep landing on perislayer.com, one at a time.
The PeriSlayer podcast launches
Before the year is out, the PeriSlayer podcast arrives: real talk about perimenopause, hosted by the people who built the app. Warm, funny, occasionally furious. Details soon.
Thanks for slaying with us.
