Three story angles (pick whichever fits your beat)
Angle 1 — Founder story
A dad built a PT app because his daughter refused her stretches for six months.
Kevin Zoss is not a PT. He's a partner at an LA marketing agency. When his 9-year-old daughter Meadow was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis and Sever's disease, the prescribed daily stretching turned into nightly fights — until Kevin, desperate, rebuilt the exercises as a Princess/Warrior/Sage RPG game. Meadow opens it on her own now. He shipped it publicly so other parents could stop fighting their kids at bedtime.
Angle 2 — Pediatric compliance crisis
The quiet reason kids' PT fails: they won't do the homework.
Pediatric physical therapy only works if kids do the between-appointment exercises. Compliance rates for home exercise programs in kids run below 40% by most published estimates. Stretch Quest attacks the compliance problem specifically — turning the exercises into a daily RPG kids choose to open. It's not a medical device. It's a behavior-change layer on top of what the clinician prescribed.
Angle 3 — Untreated market gap
Sever's, Osgood-Schlatter, and growing pains affect millions of active kids. Nobody's building for them.
Bend, GoNoodle, Cosmic Kids — the kid-stretching market is crowded with adult apps and classroom movement breaks. None of them target pediatric growth-plate conditions specifically. Stretch Quest covers Sever's disease, Osgood-Schlatter, plantar fasciitis, growing pains, shin splints, and runner's knee in kids, with 210 PT-protocol-based routines across 14 clinical categories.

Founder bio
Kevin Zoss
Founder · Los Angeles, CA · kevin@playstretchquest.com
Kevin Zoss is a Partner and Head of Media at Lazy Boy Agency, an LA-based marketing agency working with consumer brands. He built Stretch Quest after his 9-year-old daughter Meadow was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis and Sever's disease and refused to do her prescribed stretching for six months.
He is not a physical therapist or clinician. Stretch Quest is built as a compliance tool — a gamified layer on top of exercises clinicians already prescribe — not as a medical device.
Short version (50 words): Kevin Zoss is an LA-based founder who built Stretch Quest after his daughter Meadow was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis and Sever's disease. A marketing partner by day, he launched the app publicly so other parents could stop fighting their kids at bedtime over PT homework.
A note about Meadow
Meadow is the 9-year-old whose story motivated the app. She is referenced publicly by first name, age range, and the conditions she's been diagnosed with — with her consent. Under a written consent framework that Kevin and Meadow maintain together, the following are never shared: last name, school, friends, neighborhood, specific medical records, or photos/video of her face without explicit per-use approval.
For story interviews, Kevin is happy to go on record. For any Meadow-specific quotes, photos, or video, please email with the specific ask and intended use and we'll work with her to see what she's comfortable sharing. She has veto power — including after publication.
Pre-approved quotes (use freely, no permission needed)
“I'm not a PT. I'm a dad who watched my daughter cry through her stretches for six months. I didn't build this because I thought I was going to start a company — I built it because she needed something that worked.”
“Stretch Quest is a compliance tool, not a medical device. It doesn't diagnose or treat. It helps kids actually do the exercises their clinician already prescribed — which, it turns out, is the part that was broken.”
“The core is free forever, no ads, no account, no data collection from kids. Paid features are for parents who want cloud sync, family leaderboards, and the full 210-routine library. We don't make money off children.”
