History

Ultrahuman was founded by Mohit Kumar and Vatsal Singhal in 2019.2

In January 2021, Ultrahuman launched its app at the CES in Los Angeles.3 In June 2021, it launched a continuous glucose monitor called Ultrahuman M1 (formerly known as Ultrahuman Cyborg).4

In April 2022, Ultrahuman acquired LazyCo, a wearables IoT company that had developed an AI-powered smart ring.567

In June 2023, Ultrahuman won the Red Dot Design Award at Berlin for its Ultrahuman Ring Air.

2024–2025 developments

In December 2024, the company introduced the Cycle & Ovulation PowerPlug, an optional module for Ring Air that uses biomarker data to estimate fertile windows.8

In August 2025, Ultrahuman acquired medical device company viO HealthTech, developer of the OvuCore vaginal temperature sensor and OvuSense fertility algorithm. The acquisition led to the launch of Cycle & Ovulation Pro, a paid version of the cycle tracking module. TechCrunch reported that the acquisition allowed the company to offer more advanced cycle predictions by porting the OvuSense algorithm to the Ultrahuman Ring Air.9

In July 2025, Ultrahuman launched Blood Vision, a service that offers blood testing for more than 100 biomarkers and integrates results with data from its wearables. Forbes and HLTH reported that the service initially rolled out across 48 US states.1011

In June 2025, the company introduced Ultrahuman Home, a device that monitors indoor air quality, temperature, humidity, noise and light.12

Products

  • Ring PRO – a third-generation smart ring with a titanium unibody construction, dual-core processor with on-device machine learning, and up to 15 days of battery life (extendable to around 45 days with the accompanying PRO Charging Case).1314 It stores up to 250 days of health data on-device and includes ProRelease Technology, allowing the ring to be cut off in the event of finger injury or swelling.15 The Ring PRO launched globally in February 2026, with US pre-orders opening on 24 March 2026 following clearance from US Customs and Border Protection.16
  • Ring Air – a smart ring that records sleep, movement, skin temperature and heart‑rate variability. Additional functions, including an AFib detection module that monitors heart rhythm using FibriCheck, can be enabled via optional PowerPlugs apps.1718
