Pius AI Health Companion

Behind The Design (BTD)

The development of Pius emerged from a fundamental insight: while health and fitness apps are abundant, most require active engagement through traditional touch interfaces, creating friction in moments when users need quick information most. As the sole designer on this groundbreaking project, I set out to create an AI health companion that would seamlessly integrate into users' daily routines through voice-first interaction.


The design process began with extensive research into user pain points with existing health apps. Key findings revealed that users often abandoned health tracking apps due to the tedious nature of manual data entry and the interruption of their daily flow. This led to the core concept of Pius: a sophisticated AI companion that users could simply talk to naturally, eliminating the barrier between intention and action.

The visual design language was crafted to embody both intelligence and approachability. The deep blue gradient interface creates a sense of depth and sophistication, while the glowing microphone element serves as a welcoming invitation to interact. The UI maintains a careful balance between voice and touch interactions, ensuring users always have multiple pathways to achieve their goals.


Central to Pius's innovation is its conversational interface design. Rather than forcing users to learn specific commands, the AI was designed to understand natural language queries about anything from workout schedules to nutritional advice. The dashboard presents personalized health metrics and achievements in a glanceable format, while maintaining the primary focus on voice interaction through the prominent microphone interface.

Key features implemented include:

  • Voice-first interface with natural language processing

  • Personalized health insights and real-time tracking

  • Contextual recommendations for nutrition and fitness

  • Progress visualization through intuitive metrics

  • Seamless integration of workout scheduling and monitoring



The project presented unique challenges in designing for voice interaction while maintaining visual clarity and user trust. Through multiple iterations and user testing sessions, I refined the interaction model to ensure users always felt oriented within the app, whether using voice or touch controls.


The final product represents a new paradigm in health companion apps, where technology adapts to human behavior rather than the other way around. Usage data has shown significantly higher engagement rates compared to traditional health apps, with users particularly appreciating the ability to check their health metrics and receive recommendations while engaged in other activities.
