'It's A Health Tracker': Rajan Anandan On The Temple Device Controversy | Walk The Talk

Peak XV Managing Director Rajan Anandan defends Deepinder Goyal's Temple wearable amid criticism from sections of the medical community over the scientific basis of its health metrics. Anandan says Temple is a consumer wearable and health tracker, not a medical device, and argues that it is designed to help users understand their health metrics rather than treat medical conditions. Speaking about his own experience of wearing it for nearly three months, he says its comparable metrics, including sleep and heart rate, have been accurate in his assessment. He also challenges critics to provide evidence if they believe the reported data is incorrect, while defending the team's approach to product development and innovation.
