GoogleΓÇÖs long-awaited AI health coach is nearly upon us, as a preview
version is launching tomorrow for some Fitbit Premium users in the US. This
will only be for Android devices at first, but the company promises an iOS
version is in the works.

This is a Public Preview version of the software, so think of it like a beta
release. Google says it'll incorporate user feedback to "add, change or
improve features and capabilities." The company warns users that this is a
"new experience, so initially, there will be some gaps."

For the uninitiated, Google's AI health coach is exactly what it sounds like.
This is an AI chatbot intended to help users reach fitness and health goals.
The company boasts that the tech is "secure, personalized and grounded in
science." Everything starts with a five to ten minute conversation with the
coach to assess health and fitness goals.

The coach can be a sounding board for personal health, fitness and sleep
goals, but also acts as a personal trainer. Google says it can be used to
review and adjust fitness plans, check progress, get advice on trends and
create workouts. To that last point, the company says the chatbot can create
workouts based on pre-existing constraints. For instance, users can ask the
bot to make a workout that can be done in a cramped hotel room.

The coach can also be used to brainstorm questions to ask a doctor and to
track and analyze a number of sleep metrics. The bot provides a "detailed
sleep analysis" and can allegedly understand patterns and trends that can
impact sleep. All of this data can be accessed via the app.

Being as this is a preview build, it won't roll out to everyone tomorrow.
Eligible Fitbit Premium users will receive notification that the software is
ready to use. It works with any Pixel Watch or Fitbit device.

The entire Fitbit app is being redesigned to focus more on AI and this is a
large piece of the puzzle. Google promises integration with its health coach
across every aspect of the app.
