Our story
TCM belongs to
everyone.
Yuè was built to make 2,000 years of Traditional Chinese Medicine accessible, daily, and personal. No appointments. No language barriers. Just your body, and what it needs today.
Our methodology
How we read
your tongue.
1.
Tongue diagnosis
In TCM, the tongue is one of the most reliable diagnostic tools available. Its color, shape, coating, and moisture reflect the state of your internal organs and energy systems. Yuè reads these signals the way a trained TCM practitioner would, using AI vision analysis calibrated against clinical TCM guidelines.
2.
Eight TCM patterns
TCM organizes the body into eight constitutional patterns: Balanced, Yin Deficiency, Qi Deficiency, Yang Deficiency, Phlegm-Dampness, Damp-Heat, Blood Stasis, and Qi Stagnation. Each pattern reflects a different internal landscape with its own tendencies, strengths, and vulnerabilities. Your pattern can shift day to day.
3.
Food as remedy
In TCM, every food has a thermal nature, a flavor, and an organ affinity. Some foods warm, some cool, some drain dampness, some nourish blood. Yuè's food recommendations are built on this framework, calibrated to your pattern each day, not a static profile you filled in once.
4.
Daily practice
TCM is not reactive medicine. It is a daily practice of maintaining balance before imbalance becomes illness. Yuè is designed around this principle: scan every morning, understand your body's current state, and make small choices that compound over time.
Our sources
Where our diagnosis
comes from.
Yuè's tongue diagnosis draws from three classical TCM texts. The Gold Mirror Records in Cold Damage (1341 CE) was the first monograph written specifically on tongue diagnosis. Tongue Reflections in Cold Damage (1668 CE) expanded that framework to 120 tongue patterns and formalized how color is read. Differentiation of Tongue Diagnosis (1894 CE) focused on thin yellow coatings specifically, the kind of detail that separates an accurate read from a rough one.
Our AI model was trained on the same color distinctions these texts describe, including cream-yellow coating. Classical practitioners were writing about this centuries before phone cameras existed.
We are not trying to replace ancient wisdom. We are trying to learn from it.
