What Is a Health Insights Subscription and Why Do I Need One?
A SelfDecode (Health Insights) subscription is what turns your DNA data into ongoing, personalized health guidance. Your DNA is analyzed once, but your subscription gives you access to the tools and features that make SelfDecode unique.
Put simply: the initial cost covers your DNA kit + reports. The subscription is how you actually use it.
What a Health Insights subscription includes
Your reports are only part of what you're getting. Every Health Insights subscription includes the full SelfDecode platform.
AI Hyperintelligence — your 24/7 AI health coach This is the most valuable part of your subscription. AI Hyperintelligence answers your health questions using your own data: your DNA, your lab results, and everything you've told us about your health. Instead of reading through reports on your own, you can ask AI detailed questions and get a personalized answer grounded in your genetics every time, rather than generic advice.
Your subscription includes complimentary AI Hyperintelligence credits, refreshed annually at renewal. If you run out early, top up directly in the app.
You also get:
- Lab Analyzer — upload your blood test results as often as you like and see them analyzed alongside your DNA, tracked over time, and factored into your recommendations
- Lifestyle Assessments and risk scores — questionnaires on diet, sleep, stress, exercise, and environment that combine with your genetics for a fuller picture than DNA alone
- Health questionnaires — tell us more about your history, symptoms, and goals so your recommendations get sharper the more we know
- Personalized recommendations — all of your supplement, diet, and lifestyle recommendations in one place, prioritized, with the reasoning behind each one
- Recommended lab tests — which blood tests are worth asking your doctor about, based on your genetic risk areas
- Action Plan and Meal Plan builders — turn your recommendations into something you can follow day to day
- Gene and SNP search — look up any gene or variant, see what the research says, and see your own genotype for it
- Science blog with your own genetic data — read our articles with your genotype layered in, so a general piece about a gene or nutrient becomes specific to you
- MCP integration — connect your SelfDecode data to Claude or ChatGPT and explore it there using your own account
Why is it a subscription instead of a one-time purchase?
Because your results keep improving. Your DNA doesn't change, but what science can tell you about it does, and the platform grows with it.
- Health Reports are updated and expanded as new research comes in.
- Your recommendations improve as our models are refined and as you add updated lab results and retake Lifestyle Assessments.
- AI Hyperintelligence, Lab Analyzer, and the plan builders are ongoing tools, not a one-time readout.
A single DNA report is a snapshot. A subscription is a health resource you keep coming back to.
How renewal works
All subscriptions are set to auto-renew when you sign up — see our Terms of Service for full details. If you'd rather not renew, cancel any time during your current subscription period. You'll keep access through the end of your term, which runs one year from your sign-up date or your most recent renewal.
How to cancel or turn off auto-renewal
Follow our step-by-step instructions to set your subscription to non-renewal, or email support@selfdecode.com and our team will take care of it for you.
