AverScan

Contactless vitals and a wellness snapshot — using just your phone's camera.

AverScan turns your phone's front camera into a contactless vitals reader. You hold still and look at the screen for about half a minute, and AverCare reads signals from your face — no cuff, no band, no finger clip.

How a scan goes

Get comfortable

Find decent lighting, hold the phone steady, and keep your face in the frame. An on-screen guide helps you line up.

Hold still for ~30 seconds

The camera captures a short sequence while quality checks make sure the lighting and framing are good enough to trust.

Get your snapshot

AverCare turns the raw signals into a friendly wellness summary — scores and readings with plain-language explanations of what they mean.

What it can estimate

Depending on your chosen scan mode, a scan can surface things like heart rate, breathing rate, heart-rate variability, a stress indicator, and a set of overall wellness scores. Each reading comes with context — what it is, and why it might look the way it does.

Fun fact

Your skin gets very slightly redder each time your heart beats and pushes a pulse of blood through the vessels in your face. The change is far too subtle for you to see — but a camera can measure it. This technique is called photoplethysmography (PPG). The deep-dive is in The science of AverScan.

Two ways to scan

AverCare offers a per-user scan provider setting so you can choose how scans are processed:

A multi-frame face capture is analyzed and narrated into your wellness snapshot. It works today, anywhere, with no extra setup.

A longer, research-grade measurement built on transdermal optical imaging for a richer set of readings. Opt in from your AI settings.

What it is not

AverScan is a wellness snapshot, not a medical device or a diagnosis. It's great for spotting trends and building awareness — but if a reading worries you, talk to a clinician (you can book one in the app).

Your scan results are saved to your private timeline so you can watch how they change over weeks and months — which is where the real value is.
