WHOOP, known for its fitness-tracking wearables, has introduced WHOOP Coach, a personalised health and fitness coach driven by OpenAI’s GPT-4.
The LLM-powered coach can provide answers to a wide range of fitness and health-related queries. For instance, it can address questions like “What was my lowest resting heart rate ever?” or “What weekly workout schedule would help me reach my goal?” — all while offering personalised guidance based on each individual’s unique body and goals.
The WHOOP engineering team experimented with integrating GPT-4 into their companion app, fine-tuning it with anonymized member data and proprietary algorithms. The result is an AI-powered coach that offers personalised, relevant, and conversational insights based on each user’s unique body and goals.
Introduced in September, WHOOP coach stands out as the first wearable to provide highly individualised performance coaching on demand “WHOOP Coach leverages GPT-4 to essentially serve as a search engine for your body,” said Jaime Waydo, chief technology officer at WHOOP.
Members can now access WHOOP Coach at any time, receiving tailored guidance and answers to specific queries related to their fitness and health. This ranges from inquiries about resting heart rates to recommendations for weekly workout schedules. The capability to process thousands of individual data points enables Coach to act as a personalised search engine for one’s body.
“Now, we can offer on-demand, personalised health and fitness coaching within seconds. This is the first of its kind, and it will transform our members’ relationship with their data, as well as their access to information in the health and wellness space.” said Will Ahmed, WHOOP founder and chief.
