Currently, Oura Labs is only available on iOS for the Oura Ring 3 s
Oura is reportedly introducing a new artificial intelligence (AI) feature for its smart rings that will allow s to get recommendations and insights from a chatbot about health and lifestyle. The feature, dubbed Oura Advisor, is said to suggest actions to improve s' chosen health metrics and habits. It is reportedly part of the Oura Labs programme and will only be available for iOS s who own the company's third-generation smart rings. Notably, the feature was launched just a day before Samsung's Galaxy Unpacked event where the tech giant is expected to launch its Galaxy Ring device.
According to a report by Android Authority, Oura Ring 3 s on iOS can now access the AI coach from Oura Labs. Oura Labs was launched by the company in April and requires s to for the programme. Once the access is given, they can begin using this feature.
Oura Advisor is reportedly an AI-powered health and lifestyle coach that s can hold conversations with. s can ask the chatbot about how to improve sleep, nurture new habits, or build resilience, as per the publication. The feature is said to be entirely customisable where s can choose their focus areas.
The feature can also past conversations to contextually recommend improvements or offer insights on queried metrics. The information is stored as “memory” and can be manually removed from the chatbot.

Oura CEO Tom Hale addressed the rising competition from devices such as Google's Fitbit and soon-to-be-launched Samsung's Galaxy Ring in an interview with CNET. Hale claimed that Oura Ring differentiates itself from the competitors because of the consistency of its data, the new memory feature, and the company's usage of multiple AI models.
Later today, Samsung is expected to launch its smart ring. It will be interesting to see if the company announces any features that can take on Oura's AI coach.
