The wearable health market has a problem: Premium prices for surface-level insights dressed up as science. Team at @valthealth has spent nearly a year building the opposite: -most comprehensive platform on the market -most competitive pricing in each category -IOS + Android with 600+ integrations -backed by real clinical research -first of it's kind predictive insights -you always own your data -AI native from the ground up Launching soon - early access at valt.health/waitlist

I’m working with @valthealth in an advisory role and can’t wait for people to have deeper insight and understanding of their health and wellness! VALT isn’t just throwing an AI chat bot onto an existing platform - it’s a complete reimagining of the tracking platforms you know and love but with AI as the foundation rather than just the garnish on top. It doesn’t matter if you’re an elite endurance athlete with a dozen devices or a single mom with a Fitbit - VALT’s approach is going to change they way you use your wearables and track your health by unlocking the full potential of the devices you already own. valt.health/waitlist Stay tuned for more feature highlights!

If you bought a Whoop, I feel sorry for you. Google’s Fitbit Air just made it look silly - $100 one time payment vs Whoop’s $199–$359/year forever - Free tier actually works HR, sleep, SpO2, HRV, recovery, no paywall - Optional $10/mo for Gemini Health Coach (vs Whoop where the sub is mandatory) - Gemini analyzes meal photos, not just biometrics. Whoop can’t touch that - Conversational health AI ask questions like why was I tired Tuesday?and get a real answer - Open data platform Apple Watch, Garmin, third-party data all flow into Google Health - 7-day battery, 5-min quick charge = full day -Whoop just got a $10B valuation… and Google undercut them by 50% on day one

Way more information than the current apps and built up around AI rather than it added on top after the fact. Group features so teams/families/clinics some day can monitor each other and follow trends. Price should also be much better (free base level), works directly with existing devices and can pair multiple ones, has an android version. I’ve been doing some advising for them so I’m biased, but I think it will be a great option for a lot of people and I’m especially excited about the group feature. I’d love to have my sports teams in a group for strength and conditioning to monitor better, patient panels some day to see how my clinic patients are doing, family tracking to monitor grandma/grandpa. It’s showing some great promise in early alpha stage (beta hopefully in a few weeks)

Oh so the coach and AI features are $10 a month, but it's included in the Google AI Pro and AI Ultra So you can subscribe separately, but it makes Google's Gemini plan a significantly better value being included
Max Weinbach@mweinbach

Google just announced Google Health It’s a new Health suite taking the place of the Fitbit app, which lets you import data from ANY tracker and view/manage your health and wellness data. It also has Gemini built in with an AI coach to make recommendations or tracking easier

I've been using the Fitbit beta for awhile and it's good, better than many, worse than some. It's good enough for most users and it has very basic Gemini support. Once it fully integrates Personal Intelligence with Gemini, no turning back. More importantly, it's part of the Google One bundle, the new Prime bundle for most consumers.

Google Health/Fitbit vs Whoop is gonna be a heck of a fight $100-300 a year for these products is tiny price to pay for the massive gains you get from them If only doctors and medical record companies and these devices played nicely together Right now the best option is to simply “roll your own” solution Eightsleep, Function/superpower, Oura/whoop/fitbit, peptides, glps etc Healthcare is the place AI could turn its reputation around

Hi, -several AI native features (work strain, blood pressure insights, early prediction of disease, cholesterol insights, etc.) - around double the health features of anyone out there -more integrations (600+ devices) + we have Android version of the app -both have free version, but we offer things like biological age for free and believe that at any of our pricing tiers, we are competitive with anyone else out there Would love for you to try!

Wearables and AI have tremendous power. The key is getting the right information from it and the current apps on the market are lacking imo. Opportunity is there for something far better
Robinson Meyer@robinsonmeyer

Once you get past basic mid-workout Strava HR/GPS/steps tracking, I’m increasingly unsure what the point of these devices are. Your sleep score can only surprise you on the downside. Your recovery score is not a reliable guide to injury risk. So what are we doing here?

If only we could monetize simplicity in health and wellness, all these silly gurus and grifters would be gone for good. -Stop eating a few hours before bed -Exercise 150 minutes a week -Do some pushups and body weight squats a few days a week -Drink water instead of pop -Sleep when you’re tired -Find something/someone that motivates you and gives you purpose Stop being paranoid by every little tiny thing that wellness experts are trying to scare you about. The truth is they can’t make money off of the simple things so they look for ways to scare you into thinking you’re missing out on other “hacks”. Save your mental time and energy for the things that actually matter.

If this is curtains for LIV Golf, what a run. The Savannah Bananas have more staying power. Actual bananas nearly have as much staying power.
