Good morning ProductHunt, We’re excited to announce that Naked starts shipping today. This journey began 3 years ago with just my co-founder Ed and I, and the team (now close to 50) has been hard at work bringing the product to life with backing from Founders Fund, NEA, and others. We can’t begin to express how excited we are to deliver Naked to our customers’ homes. This product is designed to provide folks with a more holistic way of tracking their fitness progress. We want to take the focus off of the scale and help users visualize their progress faster than anything else. As an special offer to all you Hunters out there, you can use NAKED-HUNT for $100 off a Naked. As we are currently in the process of fulfilling all of our pre-orders before shipping new orders, we are taking deposits on our website to ship at the end of the year. Please feel free to ask myself and my co-founder Ed any questions you might have about the technology, the app, the team, and our future vision for Naked. Cheers, Farhad

@farhad_farahbakhshian congratulations on launching. It looks like this is a very unique product. I don’t see any others with the same functionality in this price range. The main application is fitness. Any other that you foresee down the road?

@vullal1 -- we're seeing some really interesting applications that could be enabled with Naked. The need for body information and a platform to host it will grow over time. Imagine being able to see how clothes fit with without ever having to try them on. Or, getting real-time advice from your trainer or physician based on how your body is changing over time. At a high level, we think that having a digital version of you will help conform the world to your body.

@farhad_farahbakhshian Nice work! I imagine the data you'll collect will be interesting at a larger scale. Do you imagine there will be value to the broader dataset or trend analysis becomes possible? i.e. Workouts that are most effective, diets, etc?

@farhad_farahbakhshian @andrewfarah Absolutely! We're already actively engaging in research to understand how your body shape and metrics relate to health outcomes and success in both exercise and nutrition programs.

How does the accuracy of this compare to things like BodySpec (which I've used before), @farhad_farahbakhshian?

@rrhoover -- Good question. We're actually using body spec and other DXA systems as a reference method, our body fat algorithms are accurate to approximately +/- 2.5%. This is considerably higher than other in home body composition assessments, like bioimpedance, which has an accuracy of approximately +/- 8% and fluctuates markedly with varying levels of hydration. The most challenging thing about measuring body fat accurately is that it's very difficult to establish ground truth. Hence, why we're using DXA as our reference.

Hi! Excited to get my preorder scanner in a few weeks. Are there any new features or updates in the works from the initial product we reserved?

Hi @christinarath -- One of the new features that you should see on the app is side by side comparisons. This allows you to compare two avatars from two different dates and see how every health metric has changed. Check it out on the product page of our website (link below). https://nakedlabs.com/naked-home... We're currently building a really cool feature that will show you what you would look like at different body compositions. For example, you can see how your body would look with 5lb more muscle or 5lb less fat.
