Your health questions deserve somewhere to go
The appointment is one part of your health. There is also the question that comes up the night before, the routine you want to work on, and the detail you remember on the way home.
With Holistic, you have a place for all of it. Text what is on your mind. Your AI guide asks about your goals, history and everyday life, then builds a care plan around what you share. Come back when you have something to add. The conversation can keep going without a supplement purchase or a paid guide subscription. How Holistic works.

A plan that starts with your life
Your Holistic plan can bring together nutrition and lifestyle ideas, personalized supplement suggestions, and lab questions to discuss with a clinician. You can include results you already have, medications or supplements you use, and what is working well for you. You do not need to buy new tests to begin. Your Holistic guide.
Use the conversation in a way that fits your day:
- Before a visit: bring your history and questions together so you know what you want to discuss.
- Between visits: talk through your routines and ask for explanations of information you have received.
- When something changes: add an update, correct a detail or revisit a question.
Example first text:
I have a visit coming up. Help me put together what I want the provider to know and the questions I want to ask.
You can start just as easily with a question about food, sleep or a recent report.
Need labs or a clinician? Start with Holistic.
Ask your guide when you want lab testing or help finding a clinician. Our team can help arrange tests, look for a relevant clinic and coordinate an introduction, with updates in your Messages conversation. Tests and clinical visits are paid separately; the provider confirms availability, services and pricing. Labs and clinical connections.
You can return with another request as your needs change. Bring new results into your care plan, prepare for a visit and keep your guide afterward. You can also keep working with a clinician you already know.
Ro may suit you if you already want an assessment through one of its clinical programs. Ro Body, for example, includes provider review, treatment when appropriate and ongoing support, plus assistance navigating eligible medication coverage. Ro Body workflow.
Holistic's guide is AI. It does not diagnose or prescribe, and its initial care plan and supplement suggestions are not clinician reviewed. Independent clinicians make medical decisions; their services, availability and fees vary. Holistic is not an emergency service. Holistic terms.
Free to start. Clear about what costs extra.
Your Holistic conversations and care plan are free. Optional supplements, new tests and independent clinical care are priced separately. You choose whether to purchase them.
For comparison, Ro Body's weight-management membership advertises $39 for the first month, then $149 per month, with medication charged separately. Its annual prepaid option advertises a monthly equivalent as low as $74; that requires upfront payment rather than monthly billing. These are Ro Body offers, not a price for every Ro service. Prices checked November 7, 2026. Ro Body pricing.
Already using Ro? Bring your questions to Holistic.
You can use both. Keep your Ro provider involved in treatment decisions and use Holistic for preparation, everyday context and questions between visits. Choose which reports and details you want to bring into the conversation.
For example, after a visit you might text: “Here is what we discussed. Help me organize the questions I still have.” You can keep that conversation going as your routine changes.

Do I need another app?

What gets shared if I ask for a clinic introduction?
