AI & Fitness Disclaimer
How to safely use AI features and fitness content in Thrive. AI suggestions are informational only and are not medical advice.
1. Overview
Thrive provides workout logging, progress tracking, a social feed, Fit Reels, and a set of AI-powered training tools. This page explains the important limits of that content so you can use Thrive safely. By using Thrive's fitness content and AI features, you acknowledge and accept the points described below.
This disclaimer should be read together with our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
2. Not Medical or Professional Advice
Thrive is a fitness and lifestyle app. It is not a medical device and does not provide medical, health, diagnostic, physiotherapy, nutritional, or other professional advice. All workouts, exercise suggestions, training plans, insights, statistics, and AI outputs are provided for general informational and motivational purposes only.
Nothing in Thrive is intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or health condition, and it should never be used as a substitute for advice from a qualified doctor, physiotherapist, dietitian, or certified fitness professional.
3. About Thrive's AI Features
Thrive includes AI-powered features such as:
- AI Equipment Scanner — identifies gym equipment from a photo and suggests exercises you could perform with it.
- AI Training Plans — generates suggested workout structures based on information you provide.
- AI Workout Insights — summarizes and comments on your logged training data.
These features generate content automatically using artificial intelligence, including third-party AI providers such as OpenAI, accessed through secure server-side functions. The outputs are automated suggestions, not instructions from a human expert.
4. Accuracy and Limitations
AI-generated content may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or inappropriate for your individual circumstances. AI can misidentify equipment, suggest exercises that are unsuitable for your fitness level or health status, or produce results that do not reflect safe or effective training practice.
You should always apply your own judgment and common sense before acting on any AI suggestion. If something does not look right, feels unsafe, or is beyond your current ability, do not attempt it.
5. AI Equipment Scanner
The AI Equipment Scanner may incorrectly identify equipment or suggest exercises that are not appropriate for a given machine, your body, or your experience level. Always confirm that you are using equipment correctly and safely — following the manufacturer's instructions and any gym staff guidance — before performing any suggested exercise.
6. AI Training Plans & Insights
AI training plans and workout insights are generated from limited information and do not account for your full medical history, injuries, or individual needs. They are starting points and general suggestions, not personalized coaching or a prescribed program.
Progress statistics, estimates, and insights are calculated automatically and may contain errors. Do not rely on them for any medical, clinical, or safety-critical decision.
7. Your Responsibility
You are solely responsible for how you train and for any decisions you make based on content in Thrive. When using the app you agree to:
- Exercise within your own physical limits and ability.
- Use proper form and appropriate, safe weights.
- Warm up, rest, and recover appropriately.
- Stop immediately if you feel pain, dizziness, or discomfort.
- Ensure your environment and equipment are safe before training.
8. When to Consult a Professional
You should speak with a qualified healthcare professional before starting or changing any exercise program — and especially if you:
- Have a heart condition, high blood pressure, or other medical condition;
- Are pregnant, recently gave birth, or are recovering from surgery or injury;
- Experience chest pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, or fainting;
- Are new to exercise or returning after a long break; or
- Take medication that may affect your ability to exercise safely.
If you experience a medical emergency, stop exercising and contact your local emergency services immediately.
9. No Guaranteed Outcomes
Thrive does not promise or guarantee any specific fitness, health, weight, strength, or performance results. Outcomes depend on many factors outside our control, including your effort, consistency, genetics, nutrition, rest, and overall health. Individual results will vary.
10. Reporting Inaccurate AI Results
If an AI feature produces a result that is inaccurate, unsafe, offensive, or otherwise inappropriate, please report it. You can use the in-app reporting option where available, or email us at customersupport.thrive@gmail.com. Your reports help us improve the quality and safety of our AI features.
