Whoop Opens Advanced Labs and $800 Cancer Screening to Non-Members — No Wristband Required

Whoop has opened its Advanced Labs blood-testing service to non-members, dropping the requirement to own a Whoop wristband. Starting August 18, anyone can order clinician-reviewed blood panels through the Whoop app — and the biggest addition is GRAIL's Galleri multi-cancer early detection test.

What's Available

• Standard blood panels: Starting at approximately $150, covering markers like testosterone, cortisol, thyroid function, metabolic health, and vitamin levels
• Galleri multi-cancer screening: $800 for a single blood draw that screens for signals associated with more than 50 types of cancer — including cancers with no recommended routine screening
• Where: Nearly 2,000 Quest Diagnostics locations across the US
• Who can order: Anyone with a Whoop app account — no Whoop membership required

How the Galleri Test Works

The Galleri test by GRAIL uses a single blood draw to detect cell-free DNA signals associated with cancer. It can identify cancer signals before symptoms appear, when cancer may be more treatable. Results are delivered within the Whoop app alongside other health insights. Important: the test is a screening tool, not a diagnostic. A positive result requires follow-up with a physician for confirmation and diagnosis.

Why This Matters

Whoop is no longer just a fitness wristband company — it's positioning itself as a consumer health platform. By opening Advanced Labs to non-members, Whoop creates a customer acquisition funnel that doesn't start with hardware. For people who wear a Garmin, Apple Watch, or Oura Ring, Whoop's lab services are now accessible without switching wearables.

What Buyers Should Know

The Galleri test is expensive at $800 and is not covered by most insurance plans. It's designed as a complement to — not a replacement for — standard cancer screenings like mammograms and colonoscopies. If you're interested in proactive health monitoring beyond what a wearable can track, this is a notable option. Compare all health-focused wearables in our smartwatch guide and smart ring guide.
