For the Wellness Briefing, Glossy interviewed Jenny Duan, the 22-year-old founder who has raised $11.6 million to launch a continuous hormone-tracking wearable named Clair. It’s part of the burgeoning hormone-tracking marketplace that could soon upend how women interact with wearables. Additionally, NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani announces a new “click to cancel” law that will soon impact gyms and subscription-based CPG. Plus, a new stat illustrates spa worker burnout, and CorePower Yoga and Gold’s Gym experience exec shakeups.
Is hormone tracking the future of women’s wearables?
There’s a gold rush happening now for health-tracking wearables that better serve women.
As previously reported by Glossy, this includes new hardware to better track strength training or sun exposure — both of these trackers are designed to look like women’s jewelry. On the software side, there’s a race underway to train large language models on women’s health to better reach female users.
Now, the industry is in the midst of an influx of innovation around hormone tracking.
