Wearable + App for Heat Strain/Performance

As extreme heat redefines sports, the HeatSense platform brings athlete heat response into view for coaches and parents. HeatSense combines a non-invasive wearable + real-time insights from core body temp, heart rate, and skin temp in an athlete app.
Hello Product Hunt! I am the founder of HeatSense and a parent of three kids who play outdoor sports in Texas.
Extreme heat advisories are disrupting practices nationwide, and headlines of athletes collapsing are far too common. Most of us haven’t been taught much about heat beyond checking a weather app—and weather treats everyone the same. I started HeatSense to change that by giving families and coaches visibility they’ve never had before. With HeatSense, rising heat strain is flagged before performance drops.
HeatSense measures core body temperature, heart rate, and skin temperature through a lightweight, non-invasive sensor worn on the bicep or chest. Paired with Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT), the app translates those signals into clear, coachable insights—so adjustments move from weather-based to athlete-based.
Our sensor is powered by CORE, a Swiss company proven in endurance sports. Tour de France and Ironman athletes use CORE technology to train in the heat. By leveraging the power of CORE and building a HeatSense Athlete app and Coach Dashboard—with Insights based on experts in heat (our medical advisors who are PhDs in thermoregulation)—we believe we are creating a new, necessary level of visibility to keep kids playing the sports they love.
Our athlete app and HeatSense Kit are launching now and our Coach Dashboard is coming soon.
