Oura has gradually become one of the top health-focused wearable manufacturers, and its rise can be attributed to a combination of excellent hardware and a strong focus on research and development aimed at accurate health tracking.

In 2024, Oura released its health coach, Oura Advisor, which is an AI-powered health coach that answers questions about health and wellness using data collected from your Oura Ring. Stepping ahead in that direction, Oura has now announced its proprietary AI model focusing on women’s health. It analyzes women’s biometric data and long-term trends to provide personalized, evidence-based insights tailored to the user.

Oura’s new proprietary large language model differs from other AI providers, primarily in its training dataset. The custom model is trained on trusted medical research and standards rigorously vetted by OURA’s board-certified clinicians and women’s health experts. 

The model is designed for women. When women ask health-related questions, it draws on curated women’s health research from verified, trusted sources. Combining it with user data collected from the Oura ring, it evaluates relevant biometric data and long-term patterns across sleep, activity, menstrual cycle, pregnancy metrics, and other data to deliver accurate, reliable insights.

“By designing a model specifically for women and grounding it in trusted clinical science and real-world biometric data, we’re setting the standard for how responsible intelligence should be built and expanded across more areas of health, pairing rigorous science with the lived, longitudinal data that makes ŌURA uniquely powerful,” said Ricky Bloomfield, MD, chief medical officer at Oura.

Oura has said that the company believes advancements in AI should not come at the cost of user data. The model is hosted entirely on Oura’s controlled infrastructure, ensuring that user data is not shared with other AI models.

If one decides to participate, their data will be used to train the AI and improve its performance, but Oura will never share or sell the data to a third party. If a user is not comfortable with sharing their personal data, they can always opt out or choose not to join.
