Perplexity debuts ‘Health’ AI assistant with Fitbit and Apple Health integration

🚀 New Launches

Asus VivoWatch 6 Plus is positioning itself as a medical-grade challenger with AI health ecosystem and ultrasound integration, but the premium pricing and dual-device complexity make it clear this is for healthcare providers, not fitness consumers invested in Galaxy Watch 8 or Apple Watch Series 11.

Marty’s Take:

The framing here is off — calling the Asus VivoWatch 6 Plus a rival to the Galaxy Watch 8 or Apple Watch Series 11 misses the point entirely. This isn’t a fitness tracker competing on the wrist; it’s a clinical data relay competing for hospital procurement contracts. When you’re bundling handheld ultrasound into the pitch, you’re not selling to athletes — you’re selling to health systems.

Shop mentioned gear: Apple Watch Series 11 | Galaxy Watch 8
