For immediate release
Wellness Project Launches Verified Google Health Integration
The AI health platform lets Fitbit and Pixel Watch users bring their health history into a unified record that can be analyzed in Wellness Project, ChatGPT, or Claude.
DOVER, Del., August 13, 2026 – Wellness Project, an AI-powered health and fitness platform, today announced the launch of its direct integration with the new Google Health API, giving Fitbit and Pixel Watch users a new way to bring their health data into a unified, AI-ready health record.
The launch comes ahead of a major transition for the Fitbit ecosystem. Google will retire the legacy Fitbit Web API in September 2026 as it moves developers to Google Health, its new infrastructure for health and fitness data.
Existing Fitbit integrations do not automatically carry over. Developers must migrate to Google's new OAuth infrastructure, request new Google Health scopes, and, for most health data scopes, complete Google's restricted-scope verification process before making those integrations broadly available.
As a result, some apps that have historically connected to Fitbit may not make the transition before the legacy API is retired. Users who rely on those apps to analyze, coach from, or combine their Fitbit data with other health information may find themselves looking for new options.
Wellness Project has completed Google's verification process for its Google Health integration and is positioned to support Fitbit and Pixel Watch users through the transition.
With the new integration, Wellness Project users can connect their Google account and sync supported Fitbit and Pixel Watch data alongside information from the other health, fitness, nutrition, workout, and body composition tools they use. The result is a longitudinal health record designed to remain useful even as devices, platforms, and AI tools change.
People spend years building a health history, but that history is often trapped across different devices and apps. Google is taking Fitbit into a new era. We think users should be able to take their data with them too, combine it with the rest of their health story, and decide how they want to use it.
Google's move from the Fitbit Web API to Google Health comes as wearable companies expand beyond tracking into broader AI-powered health platforms. Wellness Project is built around a complementary idea: the intelligence layer does not have to belong to a single device or ecosystem.
The platform combines data across sleep, activity, workouts, nutrition, recovery, heart health, and body composition into one longitudinal record. Its AI can then reason across that history to help users understand relationships between different parts of their health and fitness. A user might ask how sleep has affected recent training, whether recovery is changing as workout volume increases, or how nutrition and exercise are influencing body composition over time.
Wellness Project also allows users to securely connect their health record to compatible AI assistants through its Model Context Protocol integration. That means users can analyze their connected health and fitness data inside Wellness Project or work with it through tools including ChatGPT and Claude. Access is permissioned and can be revoked by the user.
Your watch will change. Your apps will change. The AI you use will change. Your health history should not have to start over every time they do.
The Google Health launch expands Wellness Project's broader approach to health data interoperability. Rather than asking users to standardize around one wearable or health platform, Wellness Project is designed to connect the tools they already use and create a common intelligence layer across them.
That model is becoming more relevant as wearable and technology companies race to turn longitudinal health data into personalized coaching, recommendations, and care. As Fitt Insider recently noted in its coverage of Google folding Fitbit into Google Health, the competition is increasingly shifting toward the intelligence layer and the broader race to build a Personal Health OS.
Wellness Project approaches that shift from the user's perspective. The platform is designed so health data can remain useful across devices and AI systems rather than being valuable only inside the ecosystem that collected it. That means a Fitbit or Pixel Watch user can connect Google Health to Wellness Project, combine that data with the rest of their health and fitness history, and then choose where they want to interact with it.
People should not have to pick one company to own their entire health experience. They should be able to use the devices they like, the apps they trust, and the AI tools they prefer while keeping their health history connected.
The Google Health integration is available now. Wellness Project is free during early access on iPhone, Android, and the web at wellnessproject.ai.
What users say
I love this kind of app. It lets me manage my health through the Apple ecosystem and connect it to Claude. It's wonderful. Congratulations to the developers!
Once Fitbit changed its app, I was really unhappy. Then I found Wellness Project on Reddit. Love this app!
Amazing app by an amazing person. Requested features ship so quickly, and it's free. Respect and kudos!
About Wellness Project
Wellness Project LLC is an AI-first company in the most literal sense. It was founded and is led by Bryan Barash, and almost every other contributor is an AI agent. The software was engineered by AI. The company is organized the way any company is, as functions with senior specialists running them, except the specialists are AI: engineering and platform, legal, and a marketing organization split into earned media, search, and brand and demand. A localization agency ships the product in twelve languages and a dedicated guild owns the wearable integrations. They work like a real bench rather than a prompt. Each agent holds a lane and defends it, they argue the call out between themselves first, and what reaches Bryan is a recommendation with the tradeoffs attached rather than a menu of options. He sets direction and makes the decisions; they do the work. The same structure runs inside the product, where named AI specialists advise users across training, nutrition, longevity, recovery, running, and rehab, and where users who would rather bring their own assistant can reach the same data from Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, or any other client that speaks the Model Context Protocol. Wellness Project is a working proof that a real company, from the code to the go-to-market, can be built and operated by a small human-directed team of AI agents. Wellness Project is informational software, not a medical product, and its AI advisors do not diagnose, treat, or prescribe. Wellness Project LLC is headquartered in Delaware.

About the founder
Bryan Barash is the founder of Wellness Project LLC. He is a senior marketing and legal executive at a technology company in one of the most heavily regulated consumer categories in the country, where he works at the intersection of growth, policy, and law. Before that, he spent eight years as General Counsel to Massachusetts State Senate President Harriette Chandler after receiving his law degree from Boston College. He brings deep regulatory and legal experience, has designed and shipped websites and software himself, and is today one of the leading strategic voices on how AI is reshaping go-to-market. Wellness Project is where those threads meet: a consumer health product built almost entirely by an AI team, directed by a founder who knows regulation, code, and how to bring a product to market. Bryan lives in Beverly, Massachusetts with his wife Claudia, son Elias, and their dachshund Seven.
