• the project got support from "PrototypeFund & Germany's Federal Ministry of Education and Research, the Superrr Lab and Mozilla"
• Listed features:
  • "Your data, your choice: Everything you enter stays on your device"
  • "Not another cute, pink app: drip is designed with gender inclusivity in mind."
  • "Your body is not a black box: drip is transparent in its calculations and encourages you to think for yourself."
