Q:Question: Does HelloWell use artificial intelligence (AI) to provide services?
A:Answer:HelloWell is a digital wellness platform powered by both licensed clinicians and artificial intelligence. The AI chat feature DOES include: 1) an informational and educational resource; and 2) a digital wellness companion that enables you to ask wellness questions and track certain wellness-related activities.
The AI chat is NOT an FDA-approved Software as a Medical Device and DOES NOT: 1) practice medicine or engage with you as a licensed healthcare provider; 2) prescribe medications or treatment recommendations; or 3) replace the clinical judgment of a licensed healthcare provider.
The AI chat is a knowledgeable digital health companion to help inform and provide you with educational information but does NOT make clinical or medical decisions about you or your treatment. Clinical and treatment decisions are made together with the appropriate and licensed healthcare provider.Continue ReadingCollapse AnswerIs the HelloWell AI chat safe to use?

Q:Question: How is CLEAR with HelloWell different from CLEAR at the airport?
A:Answer:HelloWell uses CLEARʼs secure identity platform to help verify your identity for account creation. CLEAR is a separate, paid membership used at participating airports for faster access through security lanes. Verifying with CLEAR is free and does not automatically enroll you in CLEAR or provide airport benefits.
Does this mean I can skip the line at airport security?
No, this CLEAR experience is not the same as CLEAR, which allows you to move faster through airport security in designated CLEAR lanes.
If I already have CLEAR, what will my experience look like?
If you already have CLEAR or have verified with CLEAR before, getting started is even easier. In most cases, youʼll just enter your phone number and snap a quick selfie. Since CLEAR already recognizes you as a returning user, you typically wonʼt need to rescan your ID. -
