Ask HN: Would you use an AI that translates your body's signals? (3-min survey)

1•app-neosoma•2mo ago
Hi HN,

I’m exploring an idea that has been stuck in my head for months, and I would love your feedback.

Today, wearables give us tons of numbers : HRV, stress, sleep stages, recovery, resting HR, energy… But very few people actually understand what these metrics mean for their body and their day-to-day decisions.

What I’m working on is a simple concept:

An AI that acts as an “interface” between you and your body - it reads your wearable data - and translates it into clear, human language.

Instead of charts and scores, it would tell you things like: • “Your body is under tension today” • “Good energy window this morning” • “Recovery is low, take it slow” • “Stress slightly elevated this afternoon”

And you could even ask it questions like: “Why do I feel tired today?” “Should I push or rest?” “What is my body reacting to?” And it would answer based on your own signals.

Before going further, I’m trying to understand whether people actually want this, whether they find their current data confusing, or whether a “translator for the body” would be helpful.

So I made a very short survey (<3 min): https://forms.gle/Rwo7RcipgNtbubWw6

If you use an Apple Watch, Oura, Whoop, Garmin, Fitbit, anything… your feedback would help me tremendously.

Thank you HN, your insights have always been gold.

Samsung did something similar 10 years ago with their phones that had a pulsoximeter sensor. It could show on some scale between 0-100 how stressed you was and compare that to previous days. Probably more useful for most people than raw values for many kinds of data.

If you pursue this, be aware that consumers are tired of AI and don't believe it works well. You need to show that it's "insights" are reliable, accurate, and useful.

If you're stuck in traffic, stressed out because you're running late, do you think it's helpful to have a notification on your phone pop up and tell you "Stress slightly elevated this afternoon"? Do you think the AI could suggest solutions that the user won't be upset to see ("Try to relax with a breathing exercise...")?

If you ask it "Why do I feel tired today?" do you think it's helpful to get a chatGPT response listing bullet point reasons for people commonly being tired? You already know if you didn't get enough sleep, slept poorly, are burnt out, skipped a meal, haven't been exercising regularly, are recovering from a recent workout, are recovering from illness, or haven't been drinking enough water. Can the data collected actually identify a specific cause? Can the AI then suggest a specific, actionable solution?
