Users can configure Trio in three ways depending on their needs. The full setup pairs the wristband with both the Cube and Halo feedback module for voice logging and enhanced notifications. A lighter option uses just the wristband with the Cube for more discreet wear. The most compact configuration snaps the Cube sensor system into the ring, making it ideal for sleep tracking

. This modular approach lets users transfer the same sensing core between the ring and wristband in seconds while maintaining consistent data collection2
.At its October 21 launch in New York City, Alloop demonstrated how Trio functions as a direct interface to its conversational AI health agent rather than simply collecting data for smartphone review

. The Cube measures resting heart rate, heart rate variability, blood oxygen, breathing rate, and temperature1
. Users can also log meals and supplements using photos, voice, or text, allowing the system to generate sleep scores and information about nutrition, activity, strain, recovery, and health trends1
.The AI agent uses Google Gemini and ChatGPT to interpret health metrics alongside personal context that traditional trackers miss, such as stress levels or routine changes

. Users interact with the agent through voice, text, and photos in the Alloop app, asking questions and exploring health information conversationally instead of relying entirely on charts2
.Trio includes Bio Age, which uses 18 measurements across six health categories—nutrition, bodily signals, lifestyle, sleep, activity, and cardiovascular, metabolic, and musculoskeletal health—to determine biological age and identify contributing factors
