WHOOP is screenless, so all your data lives in the WHOOP app—for a distraction-free focus on your health. The WHOOP app requires a WHOOP wearable. How it works: Healthspan*: A powerful way to quantify your age and slow your Pace of Aging. Backed by leading longevity research, it pinpoints the daily habits that impact your long-term health. Sleep: WHOOP helps you understand how well you sleep each night by measuring your Sleep Performance. Every morning, WHOOP provides a Sleep score from 0 to 100%. Sleep Planner calculates how much sleep you need to recover, tailored to your habits, schedule, and goals. You can even set a Haptic Alarm that wakes when you're fully rested, or at a specific time, with gentle vibration. Quality sleep is essential for improving your healthspan, metabolic mental resilience, recovery, and performance. Recovery: WHOOP lets you know how ready you are to perform by measuring your heart rate variability, resting heart rate, sleep, and respiratory rate. You'll get a daily Recovery score on a scale of 1 to 99%. When you're in the green, you're ready for strain, when you're in the yellow or red, you may want to evaluate your training program. Strain: WHOOP does more than just track your activity–it measures cardiovascular and muscular exertion to give you the most comprehensive view of the demands you put on your body. Each day, Strain Target will provide a Strain score from 0 to 21 and recommend your optimal target exertion range based on your Recovery score. Stress: WHOOP gives you daily insights to pinpoint your stressors, understand your physiological response, and discover techniques to help manage. Get a real-time stress score from 0-3 and, based on your score, choose a breathwork session to enhance your alertness or increase relaxation. Behaviors: WHOOP tracks over 160+ daily habits and behaviors—like alcohol intake, medication, and more—to better understand how these behaviors impact your body. WHOOP provides weekly guidance for behavior change and helps set accountability goals with the Journal and Weekly Plan features. WHOOP Coach: Ask questions about your health & fitness and get highly personalized, on-demand answers. Using your unique biometric data, the latest performance science, and generative AI, WHOOP Coach generates responses on everything from training plans to why you’re feeling tired.

Most health tools ask you to log how you feel, others require a wearable device or an in-person visit. Soma runs on devices you already have - first macOS and now iOS - to capture your voice as a health signal. By picking up on patterns in what you say and how you say it, Soma surfaces insights about your mental clarity, energy, stress, and more. HOW IT WORKS Soma runs primarily on macOS, capturing and analyzing your conversations as you go about your day. With the iOS app, you can now capture live conversations on the go and check your insights from anywhere. Soma builds your unique voice print to create a personalized understanding of you over time. - Personalized insights: specific, actionable observations drawn from your natural speech based on scientific evidence, not a one-size-fits-all cognitive assessment. - Voice print: Soma learns your baseline so insights get sharper and more personal the more you use it. - Context-aware: your speech carries rich context that helps us enhance your insights. You can also connect your calendar, location, Apple Health, and other health data so Soma can help you dissect the physiological and environmental factors that impact your mind. - Periodic recaps: a story of your week, including what shaped your mental states, what patterns are emerging, what to watch, and what to change. - Capture on the go: capture in-person conversations from your iPhone and pick up your insights right where you left off on Mac. - Privacy first: you decide what’s captured and what isn’t, and when something is stored or deleted. WHO IT'S FOR Soma is for anyone who wants to understand their own cognitive patterns better, whether that's staying sharp under work pressure, managing stress as a caregiver, or building mental resilience for competition. If you're curious what your voice reveals about your state of mind, Soma's for you.
