Protectometer is a specialized medical application designed to assist individuals suffering from chronic pain by applying the 'Explain Pain' research framework. The app functions as a digital companion to the developer's best-selling literature, helping users identify their 'personal pain formula'—a balance between 'Danger In Me' (DIMs) and 'Safety In Me' (SIMs) factors. Targeted at patients with chronic conditions, the app positions itself as a science-based, non-invasive educational tool. Its primary differentiator is its unique pedagogical approach, which shifts the focus from passive treatment to active, evidence-based self-management of pain triggers.
