Overview

There are several Fitness & Activity Tracker APIs out there to fetch data from wearable equipment. Fitbit, Jawbone, Nike are among them. We can utilize those APIs to get authentic data for users such as number of steps, quality of sleep, calories burned and we can issue HealthCoins based on the activities for the user. Users can redeem these HealthCoins in number of ways. Consider following scenarios,

  1. When a user is playing a game like Candy Crush Saga, he'll have to wait some time duration to get extra life to play the game. So instead of waiting, user can redeem HealthCoins for lifes, medical kits, extra powers and any other packages related to the game.

  2. Government or Non-Government organizations conducting programs like ActiveSG, Lose To Win™ can use HealthCoins to award special rates, discounts ...etc

  3. Retails shops selling health/fitness equipment can give discounts based on HealthCoins for users.

  4. Insurance companies can use HealthCoins to give discounts for the premiums.

The 4 pillars

Sleep, Activity, Food, and Mind

User Stories

  1. User registration (Individual and Partners)

  2. Synchronizing data on Steps, exercises and Sleep from Fitness APIs for Individuals

  3. Food logging. There are already a ton of apps in the market but in this case the user acquires HealthCoins for logging, so they can keep logging and make it a rewarding activity. We can tie up with food vendors where the user can just send us a picture of the invoice and we can parse the items they have ordered.

  4. Individual users are able to authorize partners to read & deduct HealthCoins

  5. Health education. We can ask them questions about health, and for correct answers we give them HealthCoins.

  6. Design a intelligent platform to rewarding HealthCoins based on user activities such as how frequent they do exercises, how often they log food, how much they are having sleep

  7. Introduce personalize goals for users. For example if a users has completed 100k steps during this week, the app should propose the user to take 1000 more steps for next week. Rewards HealthCoins when user achieve the goal.

  8. Introduce Status Levels like bronze, silver, gold and platinum for Individual users similar in Travel Smart Rewards. We can set goals to user to go higher in status level. (Example from TravelSmartRewards : You need 3 decongesting trips this week to reach silver status)
