Whoop opens its blood-testing service to non-Whoop owners — Garmin, Apple and Oura fans can now use $150 diagnostics test that now includes early cancer screening
Whoop’s Advanced Labs blood-testing service no longer requires a Whoop membership, opening access to Apple and Garmin users.
Whoop has expanded its Advanced Labs blood testing service to include users of non-Whoop devices such as Apple Watch, Oura Ring, and Garmin devices. This move aims to make the service more accessible and cost-effective for a wider range of people. Whoop's Advanced Labs program, initially designed for device owners, has now been made available to users of various health wearables.
Participants can expect AI insights and personalized recommendations from the test results, reviewed by clinicians. In addition to the expanded access, Whoop is also offering the Galleri cancer detection test, which can identify signals associated with over 50 types of cancer. The Advanced Labs testing begins at $150, but the cost can be significantly reduced when combined with the existing Whoop membership fees.
The membership is priced at $149 for the first year and $199 a year thereafter for the most basic tier. Despite the expansion, Whoop's platform remains separate from users' data from other wearables, and the tests are still subject to an additional cost. This development might provide more people with the opportunity to gain valuable health insights through Whoop's biomarker analysis.
