Let’s take a closer look at the three new features.
1) Ask InsideTracker
Ask InsideTracker is a new, first-of-its kind AI chatbot that simulates conversations with accredited health experts.
As a member, you can ask it questions on topics like biomarkers, supplements, and healthspan. In return, you’ll get direct, science-backed answers that cut through the noise of confusing, often inaccurate advice online.
Our authors include subject-matter experts in nutrition, exercise physiology, preventive health, and biology. We never give advice that isn’t backed by rigorous science.
Ask InsideTracker is a conversational large language model (LLM), so with each question, you can stay high-level or go as deep as you want.
And because we update our library often, Ask InsideTracker will always provide up-to-date information. It’s like having a conversation with an InsideTracker expert.
Ask InsideTracker is not our first dance with AI. In fact, we’ve been using “thinking” technology for years.
Our SegterraX AI engine holds the knowledge of several thousand peer-reviewed studies. When you feed in your blood, DNA, and fitness tracker inputs, it applies a huge body of research to your personal data. That’s how we deliver high-impact personalized recommendations.
But Ask InsideTracker is different. It allows you to ask questions and “talk” to it, just like you would with a human.

On the horizon:
Currently, Ask InsideTracker does not have access to your personal health information. But that will change in the future.
Looking forward, you’ll have the option to let Ask InsideTracker see your InsideTracker dashboard. Members who opt in to the secure experience will be able to ask direct questions about their blood, DNA, and fitness tracker data.
2) InnerAge social share
Odds are, you already understand the power of social support. It’s the loved one cheering you on from the sidelines or the friend who challenges you to wake up early for a sunrise HIIT class.
This kind of encouragement is fuel on the fire of motivation. That’s why we added a “share” button alongside your InnerAge results—so you have the opportunity to engage your network by posting your InnerAge on sites like Linkedin, Facebook, and Twitter.
For background, InnerAge, also called biological age, represents the speed at which your body is aging. We calculate this using 13 to 17 blood biomarkers, all of which are included in your Ultimate blood test.
InnerAge can be higher or lower than your calendar age, which is the number on your driver’s license. If your InnerAge is higher, you may have an elevated risk of age-related diseases. If it’s lower, you should take it as a sign that your healthy habits are paying off.
Whether your InnerAge is high or low, sharing it with your network is a great way to enlist social support, start a conversation, or challenge your friends to beat your number.
When you click to share, you’ll get a code to produce an image similar to the one below—only it will contain your InnerAge. From there you can add your own commentary or tag your friends.

3) Healthspan Habit Report
Coming soon!
Imagine you could get a weekly report card for your health. It would grade you on sleep, heart rate, steps, and other metrics related to healthspan.
That’s what the Healthspan Habit Report is. Think of it as a one-page accountability scorecard and weekly challenge to get healthier and stronger.
The report pulls in data from your fitness tracker and turns it into insights about how your behavior is affecting your health—plus what you can do to improve next week.
Soon, every InsideTracker Member with blood results and a synced fitness tracker will receive this report once a week.
With each report, you’ll get the following:
If you’re wondering why we don’t give you more challenges, the answer’s simple: People who try to change several habits at once are more likely to fail.
If you implement a new diet, bedtime, exercise routine, and meditation practice the same week you’re trying to cut back on alcohol, you’re bound to feel overwhelmed. You’ll probably throw your hands up in defeat and fall right back into your old ways.
By focusing on one thing at a time, you give each new behavior an opportunity to become an automatic habit.
The goal with habit formation—and with the Healthspan Habit Report—is to improve constantly, but slowly. That leads to long-term sustainable growth.
To that end, the challenges we suggest are designed specifically to improve your habit score quickly. To get the most from the report, you’ll want to commit fully to your week’s challenge.
How to sign up for Healthspan Habit Report
There’s no need to sign up. If you’re an InsideTracker member, the report will be triggered automatically if you have:
