谷歌已入股经期追踪应用 Flo Health，双方于周一宣布。这项多年合作将把女性健康数据引入谷歌的可穿戴设备和健康指导服务。双方未披露投资规模。
Google has taken a stake in Flo Health, the period-tracking app, the companies said on Monday. The multi-year deal will bring women’s health data into Google’s wearables and coaching. They did not disclose the size of the investment.
自2027年初起，用户将能够将 Flo 与谷歌健康应用同步。Fitbit 的读数，如睡眠、心率和皮肤温度，将输入 Flo 的周期预测。Flo 的洞察将出现在谷歌的付费 AI 健康教练中，谷歌表示。
From early 2027, users will be able to sync Flo with the Google Health app, Engadget reported. Fitbit readings such as sleep, heart rate and skin temperature will feed into Flo’s cycle predictions. Flo’s insights will show up in Google’s paid AI health coach, Google said.
设备与研究 双方还计划推出联名产品，将 Flo 的算法与谷歌的可穿戴硬件和传感器结合。他们未提供名称、价格或日期。
Devices and research The two also plan co-branded products that pair Flo’s algorithms with Google’s wearable hardware and sensors. They gave no names, prices or dates.
一项联合研究计划将寻找围绝经期的早期迹象，以及与多囊卵巢综合征和子宫内膜异位症等状况相关的症状模式。
A joint research programme will look for early signs of perimenopause and symptom patterns linked to conditions such as PCOS and endometriosis.
“女性等待太久了，才得到既能了解她们的身体，又能了解她们步伐的技术，”Flo 首席执行官德米特里·古尔斯基说道。
“Women have waited too long for technology that understands their bodies as well as it understands their steps,” said Flo chief executive Dmitry Gurski.
隐私承诺 未经用户许可，数据不会在应用之间流动，且需对每种数据类型单独授权，双方表示。Flo 数据不会用于广告或出售。
Privacy promises No data will move between the apps without users’ permission, given separately for each type of data, the companies said. Flo data will not be used for ads or sold.
这对 Flo 很重要。2021 年，它因被指控在承诺隐私的情况下仍将用户健康数据共享给 Facebook 和 Google，而与美国联邦贸易委员会达成和解。
That matters for Flo. In 2021, it settled with the FTC over claims it shared users’ health data with Facebook and Google despite promising privacy.
Flo 表示，其应用已有五亿次下载，每月活跃用户超过 8000 万。谷歌今年早些时候推出了售价 100 美元的 Fitbit Air，并配备了 AI 健康教练。
Flo says half a billion people have downloaded its app, with more than 80 million using it each month. Google launched its $100 Fitbit Air with an AI health coach earlier this year.
