Know your patient before the first prescription

Intake today runs on self-reported height and weight. Shen AI adds a BMI estimate from the face scan in about 5 seconds, then blood pressure and resting heart rate in 30. The numbers land on the intake form before your clinician opens it, and the digital journey stays digital.

A second signal on BMI

The face-scan estimate sits next to the self-reported value. Matches move on. Gaps and borderline cases route to a clinician.

A baseline for the safety file

Resting heart rate and blood pressure on day zero. Titration is monitored against a real baseline, not a memory.

Fewer drop-offs at intake

No cuff to ship, no clinic visit to book. The patient scans in the same session they signed up in.

Eligibility thresholds and routing rules stay yours. The scan informs, the clinician decides.

Why choose Shen AI for weight-management and GLP-1 programs

A BMI estimate from the face in about 5 seconds, then blood pressure and resting heart rate in 30. Objective data next to self-reported height and weight, before the first prescribing decision, with no cuff to ship.

A 30-second scan gives patients a reason to open the app that is not the scale. Instant results, week-over-week trends and a wellness score they can move. Apps with Shen AI inside report up to 350% higher retention.

Plateau weeks are drop-off weeks. Blood pressure, resting heart rate, HRV and stress keep moving when weight stalls. Patients see the therapy working. Coaches get something new to talk about.

Prescribing information for GLP-1s recommends heart rate monitoring during initiation and dose escalation. Shen AI captures resting heart rate and blood pressure at every dose step from the phone the patient already has. Sustained elevations surface for clinician review.

Scan cadence is a leading indicator. When a patient stops scanning, your coaches know before the pharmacy does. Trigger outreach at the moment it still changes the outcome.

Payers and employers want to know what the spend bought. Report blood pressure, heart rate, HRV, vascular age and cardiovascular risk trends alongside weight, per patient and per cohort.

Vitals for every async visit

Your clinicians make dose decisions from data, not memory. Patients scan at sign-up and before each check-in, so BMI, blood pressure and heart rate arrive together with the intake form. Fully digital, no device logistics, no shipping delays.

Boost engagement between injections

Weight is a slow, noisy signal. It plateaus, it bounces, and it decides whether patients stay. A face scan returns vitals that respond to the therapy long before the scale does. That is the difference between a check-in patients tolerate and one they look forward to.

Feedback in 30 seconds

Instant, no device, no shipping. Low friction is what makes a habit stick.

Progress beyond the scale

Blood pressure, HRV and stress keep improving through plateau weeks. Patients see it. Coaches use it.

A ritual tied to injection day

Reminder, scan, result, log the dose. One flow, once a week, in your app.

Nudges only when the data says so

A skipped scan or a drifting trend triggers outreach. Silence when things are fine.

Frequently asked questions

What product teams ask before adding AI health monitoring.

How does a face scan increase retention?

It gives users a reason to come back that pays off every time. The scan takes 30 seconds, needs no wearable and returns 30+ health markers with a score that moves. Apps that added Shen AI report up to 350% higher retention, and partners describe the scan as their most used feature.

What does the Shen AI SDK provide and what do we build?

Shen AI provides the camera measurement, the results screen, the wellness score and the health indices, all white-label. Streaks, reminders, nudges, coach views and premium tiers are built by your team on top of the data, in your product logic. Most partners have the first version live in days.

Do users need to enter any data?

No. Vital signs come from the camera alone. Health indices such as vascular age or body fat percentage use a few risk factors the user can add later, which is a natural second step in an onboarding flow.

Does it work on web as well as mobile?

Yes. Native SDKs for iOS and Android, a Web SDK for desktop and mobile browsers, and Flutter, React Native, Capacitor and MAUI for cross-platform apps.

Can we customize the results screen?

Yes. The scan flow and results UI are white-label with localization support. You can also take the raw metrics and design your own screens.

Where is user data processed?

On the user's device, inside your app. Video never leaves the phone and nothing is sent to the Shen AI cloud. You own the data and decide where it goes.

Does it work for all skin tones and lighting conditions?

Yes. The Multimodal Sensing Engine is validated across Fitzpatrick skin types and works with any phone, tablet or laptop camera, including in poor lighting.

Can we monetize the feature?

Yes. Partners gate the scan or the trend history behind premium tiers, use results to personalize offers and upsell wellness services, and use engagement data to prove value to insurers and employers.
