GOQii is a technology startup that provides its users a wearable wristband along with personal fitness coaches. GOQii gives its trackers away for free, and charges $99 for a six-month service of daily texting with a coach that analyses users’ data, and calls them once a month. GOQii outsources the services of personal trainers to Mumbai and thus aims to be cost-competitive. The coaches come from various areas of fitness, sports, nutrition and behavioural science and are apparently trained to analyse the data generated by the tracker and recommend changes to users for a better lifestyle. These coaches will be available on-demand through a mobile app and pre-scheduled monthly video or audio calls. Users earn one “karma” point for every 350 steps taken, and when donated to a charity like Oxfam the points are converted into cash, with the help of corporate and individual donors. Backed by experienced health experts and veteran angel investors. Raised angel funding in Aug 2014 from Whatsapp's Neeraj Arora And AWS’ Marco Argenti. GOQii charges subscription plans for access to its coaches, which are available over pre-scheduled calls or instant messenger. Raised funding from Paytm…
