HealthifyMe launches Ria, the AI nutrition coach

HealthifyMe has unveiled its conversational Artificial Intelligence (AI)-enabled nutritionist Ria.
The advanced AI coach, which has been under works for a while, will be launched in the coming months in Beta.
Developed under the codename ‘Project Amadeus’, Ria uses key learnings obtained from HealthifyMe’s 150 million tracked meals (20 billion+ macro/micro nutrients) and 10 million message exchanges (1 billion+ words) between coaches and clients.
Amadeus is the next step to “Jarvis”, the AI that has been assisting coaches to become more efficient by learning from their interactions with clients. Like fellow “intelligent assistants” Siri and Assistant, Ria can answer questions around nutrition and fitness via both audio and text. It can do so in more than 10 languages and provides personalised responses based on the users’ lifestyle habits.
