Oura Ring Teams Up with Dexcom to Help People Understand Their Health
The Oura Ring, which tracks things like sleep, heart rate, and activity, is joining forces with Dexcom.
The companies will integrate their products’ data, simplifying insights into how sleep and exercise impact blood sugar.
How Will the Oura & Dexcom Union Work?
People who use both the Oura Ring and Dexcom’s continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) will be able to track and understand their health better.
The Oura Riing collects over 20 different health measurements—like heart rate and body temperature—while the Dexcom G7 and G6 measure glucose levels.
Connecting this information will help people understand how eating and exercise affect their glucose and overall health.
Why Is This Partnership Important?
Understanding how our daily choices, like what we eat or how much we sleep, affect our health can be tricky.
This new partnership will give people easy-to-understand insights.
For example, the connected apps could help show when the best time to eat is based on how well someone slept the night before.
Everyone’s body is different, so the guidance will be personalized.
What’s Next for Oura and Dexcom?
The first app that combines data from both products is expected in 2025.
Dexcom also invested $75 million in Oura as part of a Series D funding round, pushing Oura’s valuation to over $5 billion.
Oura plans to use this funding to expand globally and explore more partnerships and acquisitions.
Oura CEO Tom Hale said the company, which started in Finland in 2015, expects its annual sales to double to $500 million in 2024.
