With new AI models, health tracking companies have realized that they can now provide insights using both structured and unstructured data. The new goal is to create an easier interface for users to log eating or exercise habits, along with an AI Assistant that will now guide people in nutrition and exercise.
A Health Startup created by Khosla Insist On Tuesday it launched a version of the ria health assistant, which you can interact with directly, through voice, and use the camera to get input about your food.
The startup uses Openai’s technology to power this convational mode. With this release, RIA supports more than 50 languages, including 14 Indian languages. The company says it may support mixed language input like Hinglish or Spanglish. While the company is using the Openai model for this release, it says it may use other models in the future if needed.
Through the new version of the RIA, users can request a health summary for a time frame such as a day, week, or month, or an overall summary. The app can pull data from a variety of sources like fitness trackers, sleep trackers, or glucose monitors to provide users with insight into exercise, sleep, glucose levels, and recommendations.
Like Google’s Gemini Live Conversation mode, you can ask the camera to ask you about various food items and their nutritional value, and then log them.
Health also showed a demo of using Ray-Ban Cara Smart Glasses to talk to RIA in real time and use the device’s camera to log food.
The startup believes that users will feel more comfortable talking in real time with an assistant. In addition, they can do many things in one session, such as gaining insight, generating an exercise plan, or entering their goals. If you forget to find food for the day, you can visualize your meal in one, instead of typing, and the assistant will enter it for you.

What’s more, the company wants to use the updated AI in other places. In the coming months, the plan is to create a conversion assistant as a piece outside of the user to collect more from unformed conversations. (Interestingly, new religious dating apps have chosen this kind of interface to create better matches for users.)
The startup is also building a more educational memory layer on the Openai model and the assistant has an app that remembers the long-term context of health choices and changes to provide more personalized advice.
But health can also make an assistant available in conversation with your trainer or nutritionist to help you pull data or answer your questions when they are not available. In addition, add ria to the phone with trainers and nutrition to be able to send the phone for insight. Users or trainers can also ask ria for data when there is a call.
The company’s CEO, Tushar Vashisht, said that the RIA-trained team uses a lot of conversational data between trainers and users to provide insightful and accurate advice.

Health believes that its live chat mode, data aggregation from multiple platforms, and AI trained on years of data, has a competitive edge. What’s more, the company has improved the way to access the gallery and automatically detect photos to give you the option to add food that you may have missed entering.
“We are focused on creating a health ecosystem from nutrition-driven data with other integrations. From an AI point of view, we will put the responsibility on the user when it comes to health,” CPP Company Paritosh Kumar.

Vashisht said the company could raise new funding in the future, given strong US adoption and growth.
