AMSTERDAM, Dec. 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — NOWATCH, a personalized health tracker that keeps you aware of how your lifestyle impacts your health by measuring stress, sleep, and activity so that you can take charge of your well-being, today announced the release of its robust AI-powered NOWATCH Insights feature along with its new line of Chronos designer timepiece faces at CES 2024. NOWATCH will showcase its latest innovations at CES Unveiled Las Vegas on Sunday evening, January 7, 2024, at the Mandalay Bay from 5-8:30 pm, and as part of the NL Tech Pavilion in Eureka Park at the Venetian Expo, Booth 62100 from January 9-12, 2024.
NOWATCH Insights is an AI companion and holistic approach that separates NOWATCH from other wearables. Using language models, NOWATCH Insights synthesizes diverse data streams into coherent narratives, providing users with personalized daily recaps and recommendations tailored to their specific interest profiles and wellness goals. Users can personalize the tone and length of these narratives and tips, whether it’s to be more creative or more analytical, more caring or more direct. Most importantly, this helps users recognize and understand the relationship between sleep, stress, activities, movement and their health.
“Our AI-driven NOWATCH Insights functionality stands apart by prioritizing thoughtful, high-quality responses over rapid, chatbot-style exchanges that only incentivize people to be on their phone more,” said NOWATCH CEO and co-founder Timothée Manschot. “Our unique approach guides the AI towards deep, analytical processing that is grounded in science, ensuring meaningful insights that make our AI a truly personal companion on your wellness journey. Data privacy and control by our users of the AI application is at the core of our design.”
The World Health Organization cites stress as the number one health challenge of the 21st century. Stress can render even the most fun activities meaningless: the American Psychological Association estimates stress-related health problems cost the U.S. $300 billion annually, and 76% of adults report a negative impact on their mental and physical health when feeling stressed. To complicate matters further, one study found that health trackers can actually lead to ”uncontrollable stress, unpredictable aversive health events, reassurance-seeking behaviors, and the development of health anxiety.” Designed as an “awareable,” NOWATCH is a simple but powerful solution that helps users stay mindful of how their body is responding to their environment without becoming another distraction or anxiety-inducing device.
NOWATCH gives users the ability to track their health and manage their stress without being overwhelmed by another digital device.
