Recreational athletes. People who do sport for their health and for fun. When the schedule allows.
Can't imagine life without sport? You squeeze runs into your lunch break and padel after the kids are in bed? Hydration is not really your thing? You're in the right place!
I met 250 athletes and always heard the same concerns: feeling good during and after exercise. Avoiding injuries and muscle fatigue.

You test. You rate. We only launch above 9/10.
It's hard to trust a brand: is it serious? Are the benefits real? We document the whole protocol and we involve you. Even the products that fail the protocol stay visible.
Because we need you, simple as that. We want to create hydration products that are genuinely good for recreational athletes, and nobody knows your practice better than you. Taking part in a protocol means joining a collective adventure: you test, you give your opinion, and your feedback goes straight to the lab. Together, we're building the brand we wish we'd found on the shelf.
A real-life test. Athletes like you use a prototype for X weeks, in their everyday life, and rate it. The product only launches if it scores above 9/10. All results are published, even the uncomfortable ones.
Almost none. You receive your products, you use them during your usual sessions, and after each one you share how it felt in 2 minutes: taste, energy, digestion. No need to change your routine.
Yes. The products are free. You pay €2 shipping per protocol upfront, which we give back as a voucher.
Yes. Sign up for both in one go: €4 shipping, given back as a voucher.
It's for you first and foremost. You do sport for your health, your mood, for fun, and sometimes to push yourself. Between work, kids and everything else, you fit your sessions in where you can. Protocol is designed for you: simple, accessible, no jargon. No need to chase a record to hydrate well.
We publish the results of every protocol. If the score is above 9/10, the product launches, and testers will be the first to get it. Otherwise, we rework the formula and test again. If all goes well, the first Protocol products could be out in early 2027. But we won't release anything before you've approved it.
