PAI Health’s mission is to become the new global standard for physical activity. And they are well on their way …
Everyone knows that physical activity is correlated with overall health, but have you ever wondered exactly how much activity is enough to keep your heart and body optimally healthy?
Enter PAI Health. The Personal Activity Intelligence (PAI) index is based on an algorithm that transforms heart rate data into a standardized, scientifically validated measure of cardiovascular fitness. The app is available for free to general consumers via an app store, and it’s also device agnostic so it will work with any platform that integrates PAI (disclaimer: I have it with my Fitbit).
PAI points can be gained through ANY physical activity that increases your heart rate. The higher your heart rate, the more PAI points you earn. Most importantly, maintaining 100 PAI on average over a 7-day period can dramatically improve your health and longevity. And it is personalized and adaptable to each individual’s level of physical fitness!
Originally developed by a research team based at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), the PAI index is now backed by numerous peer-reviewed studies and is based on hundreds of thousands of individuals and well over a million person-years of data.
PAI Health has also developed unique solutions for insurers, employers and healthcare providers. In addition to a growing impact in the insurance and corporate wellness program markets, they are also focusing on cardiovascular health among diabetes patients, and are also pursuing solutions for engaging patients in clinical trials.
