Whoop, maker of the screenless Whoop 5.0 fitness-tracking wristband, announced on Friday that it's expanding its member experience by connecting your health data to the real world.
Soon, all Whoop memberships will include AI-focused features and a slew of other updates, including one that connects you to on-demand doctors.
Whoop's screen-free band collects data such as your sleep, daily physical activity, recovery, stress and overall health. Now, the company is expanding its membership experience by connecting your personalized insights with more actionable features.
Whoop will connect you to real-life doctors
Starting this summer, clinician access will be available to US members on the Whoop app and will include live, on-demand video consultations with licensed doctors. They'll have access to the member's health data collected by their Whoop device, along with their medical history and any available bloodwork results.
HealthEx, a digital database that securely gathers health records in one place, is also partnering with Whoop to serve as a hub for syncing all your electronic health records.
With the new third-party partnership expected to hold medical records, a Whoop spokesperson told CNET that Whoop takes its privacy policy seriously.
"Our platform is built with strong security safeguards, and members remain in control of their information," the spokesperson said.
Whoop's privacy policy and privacy principles are available on its website. HealthEx states that members can edit or revoke access at any time as well.
How Whoop AI works
New AI features meant to further personalize the membership experience include My Memory and Proactive Check-Ins. These are already live if you have a Whoop membership.
My Memory is designed to serve as a space where members can adjust their goals and information that may affect their daily lives, allowing Whoop's AI insights and coaching to adjust according to life circumstances, such as welcoming a new child.
Proactive Check-Ins serve as a guide to recommend adjustments to your sleep or training plan based on upcoming events, such as travel.
Additional Whoop updates
Other updates you can expect include workout auto-detection mode and a Strength Trainer feature that tracks your personal bests. Plus, a more accurate heart rate tracker for both workouts and daily activity.
Whoop's existing journal feature also underwent a slight makeover and now lets you log any changes to your behaviors, new supplements and life changes either through text or voice.
This is also where Whoop's AI feature can make suggestions based on the information you input in your journal, letting you know what habits may be helping or hindering your recovery.
