Teen Founder Turns From AI Nutrition to Anti-Doomscrolling Hardware

After selling his AI-powered calorie tracking app Cal AI to MyFitnessPal for a reported $30 million, 19-year-old entrepreneur Zach Yadegari is shifting his focus to physical hardware. His latest venture, Flow, aims to curb morning doomscrolling through a specialized alarm clock that requires physical movement to silence.

The sale of Cal AI, which amassed 10 million users and reached $30 million in annual revenue shortly after its May 2024 launch, marked a significant milestone for the Miami-based developer. Yadegari, who previously sold a student-focused gaming site at age 16, viewed the acquisition as a strategic move to pursue projects more aligned with his long-term interests in productivity and wellness.

His new initiative, Flow, centers on an alarm clock that forces users to physically tap their phone against a dedicated dock to turn off the alarm. This mechanism is designed to break the cycle of morning phone dependency and doomscrolling. While transitioning from software to manufacturing presents new hurdles—specifically regarding supply chain management and shipping logistics—Yadegari remains focused on the $6.8 trillion global wellness market. He views the integration of health and productivity tools as his primary mission, aiming to build products that solve personal behavioral challenges while scaling within a rapidly expanding industry.
