Six lenses, each with its own units.

A dimension is a small, named group of everyday measurements. Each one keeps its units, its sources and its dates, so you can always see what a score is standing on, and when it is standing on nothing at all.

Sample scores are curated demo values (0–100). No clinical rule converts these measurements into scores, and no score here says whether a measurement is healthy.

Activity

Movement

Walking shoes mid-stride on a sandstone bush track in the Blue Mountains, morning light
AI-generated scene for this concept

How much you moved across the day. Two measurements from a wrist wearable: daily steps and minutes of moderate-or-vigorous activity.

Measurements
Steps steps/day · Active minutes min/day
Source
Wrist wearable (device export)
Cadence
Daily, on days the wearable is worn
When it’s missing
Days without the wearable are gaps, never “zero steps”.
In the sample data · Malik’s daily steps, 90 days. His walking routine begins in late July.

Rest

Sleep

A bedside table at dawn: a glass of water, a lamp and a wearable resting on its charger
AI-generated scene for this concept

How long you slept, and sleep efficiency, the share of time in bed that the wearable estimated as asleep.

Measurements
Sleep duration h/night · Sleep efficiency %
Source
Wrist wearable, worn overnight
Cadence
Nightly, when worn
Worth knowing
Consumer wearables estimate sleep; they don’t measure it the way a sleep study does. Vital shows the estimate and labels its source.
In the sample data · Ava’s sleep duration. Shorter nights during an August launch, a six-day gap, then recovery.

Habits

Nutrition habits

A simple home-cooked bowl of rice, greens and tofu on a kitchen bench beside mandarins and water
AI-generated scene for this concept

Self-logged habits, deliberately simple: serves of vegetables and fruit, and water. This is a habit log, not a diet assessment, calorie count or nutritional analysis.

Measurements
Vegetable & fruit serves serves/day · Water L/day
Source
Daily habits log (self-reported)
Cadence
Daily, when logged
When it’s missing
Malik never set up the log, so his nutrition dimension is missing for the whole record and is excluded from his index.
In the sample data · Ruth’s logged serves. She stops logging on 11 September; the record simply ends.

Balance

Recovery & wellbeing

AI-generated scene for this concept

A device measure and a human one, side by side: overnight heart-rate variability (RMSSD) from the wearable, and a 1–5 wellbeing check-in you rate yourself.

Measurements
Heart-rate variability ms (RMSSD) · Wellbeing check-in 1–5
Sources
Wrist wearable · Wellbeing check-in (self-reported)
Cadence
Overnight when worn · most days
Worth knowing
HRV varies a lot between people and with age. Vital never compares one person’s HRV with anyone else’s.
In the sample data · Ava’s overnight HRV, which dips during her launch weeks and returns.

Measurements

Cardiovascular measurements

A home blood-pressure cuff and monitor on a timber table with a mug of tea and a notebook
AI-generated scene for this concept

Resting heart rate from the wearable, and blood pressure from a home cuff. Vital shows these as measurements with units and dates; it does not grade them, flag them or interpret them.

Measurements
Resting heart rate bpm · Blood pressure, systolic / diastolic mmHg
Sources
Wrist wearable · Home blood-pressure cuff
Cadence
Daily (heart rate) · irregular home readings (blood pressure)
Important
If a reading worries you, talk to a clinician. Vital isn’t a monitoring service and doesn’t watch for anything.
In the sample data · Malik’s home blood-pressure readings, Mondays and Thursdays, with a nine-day pause in late August.

Measurements

Metabolic measurements

A glucose meter, test strips, a plain unmarked envelope and a tape measure on a kitchen bench
AI-generated scene for this concept

Occasional fasting glucose results and waist measurements. These arrive weeks or months apart, so freshness matters more here than anywhere else.

Measurements
Fasting glucose mmol/L · Waist circumference cm
Sources
Pathology result (lab report) · Tape measure (self-measured)
Cadence
Occasional
When it’s stale
Ava’s only results are from July. At 70+ days old they fall outside the 21-day freshness window, so metabolic is excluded from her index, shown as stale, not as zero.
In the sample data · Ruth’s three waist measurements across 90 days. Sparse readings are drawn as points, joined only by a faint dashed guide.

All measurements at a glance

Thirteen measurement types across six dimensions, every one with an explicit unit and source.

What a sample score is, and isn’t

It is

  • A curated 0–100 value attached to each day that has evidence for that dimension.
  • Linked to the observations recorded that day, so you can trace it.
  • Part of a fictional storyline, generated alongside the measurements so they move together.

It isn’t

  • A clinical rating, a grade or a judgement of any measurement.
  • Comparable between people, or with any population norm.
  • Something a real product could use without agreed, validated criteria for each measurement.
