Your data stays in your Ottavia account and is used only to guide you. The third-party AI services Ottavia uses never learn who you are: they see the health context needed to answer you, never your name or contact details. Your data is never sold, never used to train AI models, and is deleted from those services when you delete your account.
No. Experts contribute their methods to Ottavia; they never see individual users or their data.
Ottavia works best with Apple Watch, Garmin or Google Health. You can also log sleep, meals and workouts yourself.
