"The CIRQA apparently goes further, by also measuring recovery from physical and emotional stress, human alertness level, and performance, a set of more granular, wellness-focused features."
"Whoop is decidedly data-first. Its wearables monitor as much information as possible through a nondescript band, and then analyze and display what it learned via a smartphone app."
"Garmin accidentally leaked that it was working on a new wearable via a hastily removed store page in January, indicating potential competition in the fitness tracker market."
Garmin is reportedly working on a new wearable called CIRQA, designed to track various health metrics, including recovery from stress and human alertness. This device aims to compete with Whoop's data-first approach, which focuses on monitoring extensive information through a simple band. Fitbit is also entering this market, having teased a similar product with Steph Curry. The growing interest in optimizing health and Whoop's recent funding success indicates a competitive landscape for screen-free fitness trackers.
