100Plus has been built with the mission to give health predictions based on innumerable electronic records. Founded by PayPal Peter Thiel, 100Plus plans to empower people with better health graphs by using public datasets from CDC and HealthData.gov along with 24 million de-identified data.What if you knew what diseases you might suffer due to your current weight? What if 100Plus told you that you will suffer from suffer lung cancer when you are 40 years since you smoke 10 cigars a day. This app is not like other apps that gives you a diet chart. It is much more detailed and makes predictions based on data. This is intelligent monitoring and precaution.
100Plus however negates any kind of genetic testing and will not be able to give you any prediction based on the same. 100Plus wants to leverage the ever growing Quantified Self movement. The mission is to create a more personalized health prediction process through the mobile platforms, so that a common man can stay fit. Other players in this scene are Jawbone’s Up, RunKeeper, Fitbit and more to mention. 100Plus will use mobile devices to give you a health forecast never seen before. This is surely one of its kind.
100Plus was lying in the backyard for a long time and has finally shown us some sunshine by launching its official iPhone app in the first go. This is in beta and with Android 100Plus will be making our lives better in February.
100Plus’s new iPhone app also works as a discovery model where apart from predictions, one also gets to know more about relevant health activities. 100Plus wants to leverage the ever growing Quantified Self movement.

As a plan of its corporate distribution, 100Plus plans to sell this to to companies who want the well being of their employees. All one needs to do is to enter certain important details and stats regarding age, height, weight, address and some more to get the app into action. The app also tracks location based on GPS and then shows you nearby people.
Apart from Peter Thiel other minds who are working on 100Plus are health data specialist Chris Hogg as CEO and Ryan Howard, the Founder and CEO of free EMR service, Practice Fusion. 100Plus raised a recent amount of $1.25 million from sought after investors like Reid Hoffman and John Lilly (via Greylockâs Discovery Fund), Felicis Ventures, Band of Angels and Founders Fund, via Peter Thiel.
