“Now I finally know what I need an Apple Watch for”, said a fellow Ekkonian when coming back from a customer meeting the other week. “When I get sick I go to the doctor and they take samples. Samples that give an instant picture of my health, but it says nothing about how the pulse, blood pressure, or oxygen level compares to two days ago, two months ago, or two years ago. Or relative to what’s normal for me. Yes, for me. Not for my peers, but for me.” The Apple Watch continuously logs health data to provide a view over time, enabling the doctor to make better diagnosis and recommendations; Maybe even urge you to go see the doctor before you get sick.
“I take it one step further”, said a colleague. “I use a Garmin to reach my goal to run a half marathon in 1:45 hours. It automatically generates recommendations for how I should train to improve towards my goal – customized individual recommendations that adapt to a bad night’s sleep or a weak training session.” The Garmin becomes a personal trainer that guides you to how you can best reach your target.
Ekkono is the Apple Watch and the Garmin Forerunner for products! We enable everything with a sensor and a signal to learn the normal behavior of the specific unit to do early detection of deviations that require attention. This individual condition monitoring is the foundation for simulations of alternative settings that ensures that every unit runs at its best for what, where and how it is being used. Over time it learns more to provide even better recommendations to the individual unit. This is a truly data-driven approach to creating customer value and generating customer loyalty.
