Google and insurance company, Vitality, launched a global collaboration to introduce Vitality AI. This new platform will revolutionize how millions of people across the world understand and manage their health by fusing Vitality’s extensive health datasets and behavior-change expertise with Google Cloud’s cutting-edge AI and data analytics.
The introduction of Vitality AI could revolutionize life insurance and health industries worldwide.
To provide a more precise knowledge of a person’s health and lifespan characteristics, Google’s AI tools will be used to Vitality’s wide range of health and lifestyle data as part of the cooperation.
To assist prevent sickness and prolong healthy years, Vitality’s clients will receive individualized, actionable insights that are customized to each person’s distinct health, lifestyle, and major risk factors. Lifestyle decisions including exercise, sleep, screenings, and wellness coaching are among these suggestions.
Vitality’s AI platform will integrate Google Cloud’s Vertex AI platform and Gemini models with Vitality’s vast health and lifestyle dataset to deliver this customized and personalized information to clients.
More than 2,800 characteristics, including lifestyle choices, health information, clinical risk, and inclination for incentives that promote behavior change, are included in Vitality’s de-identified dataset.
This kind of large-scale, individualized health advice was challenging and frequently too generic to be useful before AI models like Gemini. This collaboration aims to lower healthcare-related expenses and increase life expectancy.
The alliance seeks to increase loss ratios, reduce operating costs, and enhance customer engagement by leveraging insights from large-scale health data and empowering individuals to act.
Maureen Costello, Vice President, UK, Ireland and Sub-Saharan Africa, Google Cloud, said,
“The potential of AI in healthcare is profound, from accelerating the pace of scientific progress, to enhancing early detection of diseases, improving treatment planning, better supporting healthcare professionals and giving more people the right tools and information to live healthier. By integrating Google Cloud’s advanced AI capabilities, including Gemini models, with Vitality’s data and understanding on driving healthier habits, this partnership poses an exciting opportunity to deliver hyper-relevant healthcare at scale.”
Adrian Gore, Founder and Group Chief Executive of the Discovery Group, stated,
“Despite the clear benefits of preventative care, health systems and the insurance market as a whole remain focused on treating illness when it happens. Our partnership with Google transforms this. By bringing together Google’s technology and AI capabilities, and our unique data sets and understanding of behavior change, we will have a never-before-seen capability and understanding of a person’s health, coming together in a way that personalizes and empowers millions of people to take control of their health. This is transformational – both for the individual and the insurance market as a whole.”
