Google Launches AI Health Coach and Rebrands Fitbit App as Google Health

Google has unveiled Google Health Coach, a Gemini-powered service combining fitness coaching, sleep analysis, and wellness guidance, available May 19 under the Google Health Premium subscription at $9.99/month or $99/year.


The coach personalizes guidance through an onboarding flow covering goals, equipment, injuries, and lifestyle. Users can log workouts and meals via text, voice, or photo. Insights draw from fitness metrics, sleep data, nutrition, cycle tracking, and connected U.S. medical records.


Alongside the app rebrand, Google introduced the Fitbit Air — a screenless, Whoop-style band priced at $99.99. It tracks heart rate, SpO2, HRV, sleep stages, and Afib. The device weighs 12g, is water-resistant to 50m, and offers up to 7 days of battery with a 5-minute fast charge delivering a full day of use.


The Fitbit Air ships May 26 and includes a 3-month Google Health Premium trial. Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers get Health Premium at no added cost.
