Building your health stack: devices, data, and Fulcra.

The best health insights come from combining multiple data sources. Learn how to build a personal health stack that feeds into Fulcra — from entry-level setups to advanced quantified-self configurations.

What is a health stack?

A health stack is your personal combination of wearables, apps, and data sources that together give you a comprehensive view of your health. Think of it like a tech stack for software — each layer adds capability. Fulcra sits at the center, aggregating data from all your sources into a single timeline.

Tier 1: Essential

Start with a smartwatch or fitness tracker (Apple Watch, Oura Ring, Garmin, Whoop) connected to Apple Health or Google Health Connect. Fulcra pulls sleep, heart rate, steps, and workouts automatically. Cost: $0–$300 + Fulcra subscription.

Tier 2: Intermediate

Add a continuous glucose monitor (Dexcom, Libre) for metabolic insights and use Fulcra’s annotations to log meals and supplements. Connect MCP to Claude for AI-powered analysis. Cost: $300–$800/year additional.

Tier 3: Advanced

Layer in multiple wearables for cross-validation, add a smart scale for body composition, use environmental sensors, and build custom dashboards with Fulcra’s sharing and MCP features. Full quantified-self setup.

Stack recipes by goal

Different health goals call for different device combinations. Here are recommended stacks optimized for common objectives.

Sleep Optimization

Oura Ring or Apple Watch for sleep stages + Fulcra annotations for sleep environment tracking + MCP for AI sleep coaching. Track bedroom temperature, bedtime routine, and substances to optimize deep and REM sleep.

Endurance Training

Garmin or Apple Watch for workout metrics + Whoop or Oura for recovery scoring + CGM for fueling strategy + Fulcra to unify it all. Balance training load with recovery using cross-device HRV analysis.

Metabolic Health

CGM (Dexcom or Libre) for glucose + smart scale for weight and body composition + Fulcra annotations for meals + MCP for AI nutrition insights. Understand how food, exercise, and sleep affect your metabolism.
