New app focuses on organizing family health data.
AI quietly monitors and provides health insights.
App caters to multi-generational family needs.

Two years after departing Google, Fitbit's founders, James Park and Eric Friedman, have introduced Luffu, a new startup focused on family health management. The Luffu mobile app employs AI in the background to gather and organize health information across entire families.

Park stated that health is now viewed as broader than individual well-being. The app is particularly designed for the primary family health manager, often referred to as the 'CEO of the family,' who handles appointments and prescriptions. It also serves caregivers managing children, parents, and even pets.

Friedman highlighted the app's utility for families navigating care for multiple generations. The AI acts as a 'guardian,' passively monitoring for health changes and issuing alerts when necessary. Users can also query health data in plain language and share information with relatives.
