What is Terra API?

Terra is the Health OS for connected health data.

We give developers one platform to access, standardise, and act on data from the entire health and wearable ecosystem, from fitness trackers and smartwatches to medical devices and lab diagnostics, without building or maintaining a single integration.

Why Terra?

The problem we solve

Health data is fragmented. Every device, platform, and lab (like Garmin, Fitbit, Apple Health, Oura, and hundreds more) has its own API, data format, and authentication method.

Our solution

Terra is the layer that sits between your application and that fragmentation. We handle the infrastructure:

• Integrating with hundreds of providers.

• Normalising diverse data formats into one schema.

• Managing different authentication methods.

So you can focus on building the future of health.
