The Health-Tracking Whoop App Will Now Connect You to On-Demand Doctors. Plus, New AI Features

The update adds live and on-demand clinician video visits, AI coaching, and electronic health record syncing as WHOOP broadens its health platform.

  • On Friday, wearable fitness tracker Whoop announced new in-app, on-demand video consultations with licensed clinicians for United States users. The service launches this summer, allowing members to connect continuous biometric data with medical guidance.
  • Integrating with health records provider HealthEx, the platform will enable users to securely sync medical histories including diagnoses, medications, and procedures directly into the app. Clinicians will access this data alongside continuous biometric records for comprehensive evaluations.
  • Whoop Chief Product Officer Ed Baker announced new AI-driven features 'My Memory' and 'Proactive Check-Ins' that allow members to manage personal context. These tools enable the AI to deliver actionable, personalized recommendations for training and recovery based on life events.
  • Competition in the screenless fitness tracker market is intensifying as Google prepares to launch the Fitbit Air on May 26 for $99. The rival device includes a Gemini-powered AI coach, challenging Whoop's market position.
  • Currently valued at $10.1 billion with over 2.5 million users, Whoop is expanding its subscription model to maintain market relevance. Most new features are included in memberships, though live video consultations will require an additional fee, pricing to be announced.
