About

ProtocolEngine was built by Stefan Ojanen, an AI veteran who has been working in the field since 2014, long before it became a household topic.

During the pandemic, Stefan developed severe insomnia that spiraled into a full burnout. That experience forced him to take health seriously, not as a nice-to-have, but as a necessity. What followed was a deep dive into health optimization: hundreds of hours of Huberman Lab episodes, research journals, health podcasts, and late-night PubMed sessions.

Over time, he assembled a comprehensive system built on three pillars: the right supplements, consistent daily habits, and a properly optimized diet. All grounded in evidence. The insomnia resolved. The burnout lifted. But it was not any single intervention that fixed it. It was the combination of all three working together. That experience made one thing clear: good health is not about finding a magic pill or a single hack. It requires a holistic approach where what you take, what you do, and what you eat all reinforce each other. That philosophy is at the core of ProtocolEngine.

Friends started asking questions. Then friends of friends. What started as casual conversations turned into a sprawling Google Doc, a personal protocol document that Stefan ended up sharing with hundreds of people who wanted the same thing: clear, evidence-based answers without having to consume tens of hours of podcasts to get there.

Two problems became obvious. First, compiling all the relevant information into something actionable is genuinely hard. Most people don't have the time or background to read studies, cross-reference claims, and figure out what actually applies to them. They just want to know: what should I take, what should I eat, what habits should I build, and why?

Second, science doesn't stand still. What was considered the best advice two years ago might be outdated today. A supplement that looked promising can get downgraded by a new meta-analysis, a dietary recommendation can shift based on new trial data, or an overlooked habit can suddenly have strong evidence behind it. Keeping up with that is a full-time job.

ProtocolEngine exists to solve both problems. It's the tool Stefan wished he had when he started: a living, evidence-graded system that reads the research so you don't have to, updates automatically as science evolves, and is honest about what it knows and what it doesn't. Supplements, habits, and diet, all in one place, all graded by the same rigorous methodology.

No hype. No agenda. Just the evidence, organized and graded, so you can turn research into action and make health decisions you actually trust.
