Ethos
Your body is a sensor.
It deserves a paycheck.
A consent-first marketplace where the data your devices already collect — heart rate, sleep, glucose, steps — earns you something instead of someone else.
You generate ~250,000 health data points, every day.Whether you earn from it is up to you.
Your watch logged your heart rate while you read this. Your phone clocked your sleep last night. The data is already being produced — passively, by you, every minute you're alive. Right now, somebody else is the one cashing the check.
Your data is worth $50B+ to people who aren't you.
Pharma, medical research, insurers, AI labs, public-health bodies. They all need real-world data, and they spend tens of billions a year acquiring it.
Ethos puts you
in the middle
of the trade.
Already wearing a watch? Keep the upside.
Your devices log you all day. With Ethos, that data stops disappearing into someone else's pipeline — connect once, approve what you like, and payouts run in the background.
Real data, real consent, a real receipt.
Reach willing participants directly. Every record is consent-stamped, time-bound, and revocable — auditable down to the minute, defensible at IRB review.
Plug in any source.
Apple Health. Cicada Sense. Fitbit. Garmin. Withings. Oura. Dexcom. Whatever you already use — Ethos reads from it. One connection per source. Revocable any time.
Studies find you.
Researchers post studies with criteria. Ethos checks your profile against active studies and surfaces the matches — quietly. Nothing pushed, nothing forced, nothing sold.
You decide, every time.
Review what's being asked, what's being paid, and how long the access lasts. Approve, pass, or set rules to auto-approve studies you trust. Revoke any time — instantly.
Money. Real money.
Direct deposit, in-app wallet, or charity donation. Paid out per release, per duration, per buyer — exactly what the deal you accepted said. No middleman taking a cut.
Four screens.
No hidden ones.
A home sensor that quietly fills the gaps your wearable misses.
Sense sits in the room and reads the things skin-contact can't — sleep posture, breathing cadence, ambient air, room temperature, presence. Data stays local until you choose to share it. It connects to Ethos in one tap.
