About
A calmer way to read your own data.
VITAL puts context next to every value: what it is, what it rests on, what it is compared with.
Purpose
Personal health intelligence.
Wearables record a great deal, but a recording alone does not say what it means for you. VITAL reads your recordings against your history, shows how it got there, and stops where the evidence stops.
The aim is not the most features. In the words of the standard it is built to, it is features that have been thought through properly — imaginative, practical, rigorous, and knowing when the evidence runs out.
Not medical software. VITAL is personal health intelligence: it shows how your own recorded data compares with your own history. It does not diagnose, treat or monitor any condition, and it is not an emergency service.
How it is built
Four habits.
Preserve the original.
Recorded measurements are never altered. Calculations sit beside them, labelled.
Say what kind of number it is.
Recorded, Calculated, Estimate, Reported by you — before the number says what it means.
Don’t manufacture certainty.
No result is tuned to make a graph look good. When something is unreliable, VITAL says so.
Look at the real thing.
Features are judged on the rendered result, on desktop and on a phone — not only by tests.
Where it stands
Honest status.
- Registration is controlled: new accounts open in limited numbers.
- VCI is experimental, and labelled so wherever it appears.
- No system is free of risk. VITAL does not claim any security certification.
