WHOOP has made a name for themselves as the go-to wearable for those at the top of their game. You may have spotted elite athletes like LeBron James and Michael Phelps wearing the slim, screenless device. So what has made the device so successful? In this week's episode of Building One, Tomer Cohen sits down with Will Ahmed, founder and CEO of WHOOP, to discuss how focusing on a narrow product vision and owning the entire user experience led to the brand's success in the saturated fitness tracker market.

WHOOP's simplicity and dedication to providing pro athletes and everyday users with the most meaningful insights are central to the company's approach. Tomer and Will discuss: The virtues of building a product with a narrow and deep focus. How avoiding product scope creep helped WHOOP create a best-in-class wearable. Why building original hardware was key to WHOOP's competitive advantage. The role of restraint in showing users the data that truly matters. How WHOOP's design for professional athletes translates to better experiences for everyday consumers. Follow Will Ahmed on LinkedIn.

They're the 300 dollar subscription fitness bands being worn by a host of celebrity-backers in 2024. But who is the business leader behind the billion-dollar Whoop brand?The son of an Egyptian migrant to the US, Will Ahmed was always interested in sports. During his college years he started to notice the dangers of doing too much sports training. He describes this as a ‘rabbit hole' as he began researching sleep and recovery patterns in professional athletes. This led him to create a fitness tracker company that is a 3.4 billion dollar venture today, attracting famous athlete-investors like Michael Phelps and Cristiano Ronaldo and taking on established names in fitness tech like Apple, Google, Garmin and Fitbit. We hear how he did it, and what challenges he's faced along the way. (Picture: Will Ahmed in his office, wearing a Whoop device)Presented and produced by Devina Gupta
