Ultrahuman unveiled a new smart ring on Friday. The Ring Pro is the Bengaluru-based wearable maker’s third-generation device, featuring a longer battery life and a redesigned form factor. This launch is part of an effort to revive its U.S. business, which was disrupted last year by a patent dispute with rival Oura.
The Ring Pro offers up to 15 days of battery life, a significant increase from the four to six days provided by its predecessor, the Ring Air. It is priced at $479 and will be available for pre-orders globally, though shipments to the United States are pending. Shipments to other regions begin in March.
Ultrahuman’s U.S. operations were disrupted in October 2025 after the U.S. International Trade Commission ruled in Oura’s favor in a patent case. This ruling prevented Ultrahuman from importing new ring inventory into the country, though existing retail stock could still be sold. The impact was substantial, as the U.S. accounted for about 45% of the company’s roughly 700,000 daily active users worldwide.
In August 2025, Ultrahuman filed a separate patent infringement case against Oura in the Delhi High Court, where the matter remains pending. To work around Oura’s patent, the company developed the Ring Pro with a new design. This device has been submitted to U.S. Customs and Border Protection for clearance to confirm it can be legally imported.
Despite the challenges in the U.S., Ultrahuman is currently operating at an annualized revenue run rate of about $150 million. It reported $64 million in operating revenue for the financial year ended March 2025. The startup remains profitable after tax, although margins are expected to narrow due to litigation costs, tariffs, and the redesign effort.
Alongside the new ring, Ultrahuman introduced Jade, a real-time biointelligence system. Jade analyzes user health data across Ultrahuman’s devices and services to generate personalized insights and recommendations. According to CEO Mohit Kumar, Jade is designed to move beyond retrospective health summaries toward real-time, actionable guidance. It will be available to all Ultrahuman users at no additional subscription cost.
The Ring Pro itself features a redesigned heart-rate sensing architecture for improved signal quality during sleep and a new dual-core processor to enhance data accuracy. The device can store up to 250 days of health data and weighs approximately 5% to 6% more than the Ring Air, which launched in July 2023 at $349.
Ultrahuman also introduced a Pro Charger with up to 45 days of battery life to support on-the-go charging. This charger enables faster updates and diagnostics through direct case connectivity and supports wireless charging via the Qi standard.
Women account for about 68% of Ultrahuman’s user base, up from roughly 65% a year earlier, reflecting strong adoption of the startup’s women’s health features. The company also offers subscription-based services, including a coaching program called PowerPlugs, the Blood Vision metabolic panel, and a continuous glucose monitoring offering. Subscriptions contribute about 16% of revenue, while Blood Vision accounts for roughly 5% to 6%.
Ultrahuman’s key growth markets include the UK, Canada, Australia, and India. India contributes about 8% to 9% of overall revenue following recent investments in local customer support.
Industry data shows the smart ring market is expanding rapidly. Global shipments grew nearly 80% year-over-year in 2025, driven by demand for compact wearables with advanced sleep tracking. Oura continues to lead with more than two-thirds of the market, while Ultrahuman holds the second position. Separate data indicated global shipments rose about 30% year over year in the third quarter of 2025, with Ultrahuman capturing roughly 25% of the market during that period.
Founded in 2019, Ultrahuman has raised about $55 million from investors including Alpha Wave Incubation, Blume Ventures, Steadview Capital, and Nexus Venture Partners. The company is building additional production capacity to support demand for the Ring Pro in the coming months.
