#93: Clayton Kim on Using AI Technology to Optimize Health and Performance with Fount

Clayton Kim is the COO of Fount, a company focused on creating the most comprehensive and customized health and performance programs in the world, using AI technology and expert coaches. Clayton is a problem solver - whether that be for coaching athletes in aerial straps, or using data science to develop comprehensive AI systems, he’s always looking for ways to improve the thing which he is working on.

There is a distinctly human element to coaching of any kind that cannot be totally replaced by a machine. However, what if we could use AI to replace a lot of the “busy work” a coach has to do, so that they can free up time to use their uniquely human skills to help more people? This is what Clayton is building with Fount. We discussed the ins and outs of how this is possible, and how it all blends together.

Fount has also recently released a product called FlyKitt. FlyKitt is another unique AI/human blend approach to eliminating jet lag. Turns out, jet lag isn’t necessary. And given the correct information, tools, and guidance, it can be eliminated almost entirely. Clayton and I spoke about how this system would work, as well as some simple rules-of-thumb anyone can follow.
