The Wearable Designed for Lasting Progress
Moving beyond traditional fitness tracking, WHOOP is positioning itself as a proactive health platform. It leverages more than 24 billion hours of physiological data and purpose-built AI models to predict health risks and prevent chronic disease before it begins. The health platform includes an FDA-cleared ECG, a Healthspan longevity feature, Blood Pressure Insights, and Advanced Labs blood biomarker analysis. Research shows that people who wear WHOOP daily log more than 90 additional minutes of exercise per week, get over two extra hours of sleep, and have 10% higher heart rate variability.
The wearable company is accelerating rapidly, boasting over 2.5 million members globally. Operationally, WHOOP became cash-flow positive in 2025, experiencing a 103% year-over-year growth in bookings and exiting the year with a $1.1 billion revenue run rate.
Global Expansion
Armed with a fresh $575M, WHOOP plans to hire over 600 new employees to fuel global expansion across Europe, the GCC, Asia, and Latin America. As they deploy this capital, WHOOP isn’t just trying to sell more hardware; they are aggressively trying to scale a new, AI-driven standard for preventative global health.
“Our raise brings together the world’s most sophisticated investors, leading health institutions, and iconic global athletes behind the mission to unlock human performance and healthspan,” said Will Ahmed, Founder and CEO of WHOOP. “We are building the personal health platform that people use to improve their health and livelihood.”
