Whoop Launches 'Humans' Social Network Featuring Verified Biometric Data
Wearable technology company Whoop has introduced a new social networking platform called 'Humans' within its existing app. The feature allows members to share fitness metrics, activities, and achievements through a story-like interface similar to Instagram Stories. Users can post 'Moments' that combine photos with biometric data such as running routes, pace, and distance. CEO Will Ahmed positioned the platform as an antidote to AI-saturated social media, claiming every account is tied to a real person via a 'verified heartbeat.' While existing group features like 'Teams' will remain, Humans offers more granular control over privacy, allowing users to select specific metrics—such as sleep, recovery, or strain—to share while offering a 'Stealth Mode' for temporary data hiding.
