Nox with Orion 2.5
Meet Nox with Orion 2.5: the new flagship and the fast Orion Flash 2.5 are now publicly available in Plan mode on Pro and MAX. They build pages, 3D models, code and video, use health research tools and review answers in stages at Ultra. The Nox 2.1 generation stays: Orion 2.1 Pro scored 69.5 on HealthBench Professional and builds interactive 3D body models, code and MP4 videos; Orion 2.1, the same model in chat-style Plan mode with a peer-review answer pipeline; Orion Flash 2.1, the fast Orion with full thinking depth on a new 552-billion-parameter engine; and Vela 2.5 for everyday answers.
Nox opens straight into the chat: ask any health question and get an answer that tells you when something needs a doctor, with an emergency alert if a message describes a possible emergency. Free to start, no credit card required. <a href="/chat">Open the Nox chat</a>.

Unlike typical smart-ring apps that mainly display data dashboards, Nox is designed as a conversational AI companion at the center of a smart-ring ecosystem — you talk to it, ask it health questions, and it helps you understand your body in plain language. Nox is a companion and educational tool, not a medical device, and not a replacement for a clinician.
The Nox 2 generation launched on September 23, 2026, with Orion 2, the new Orion Flash 2, and Vela 2. 1.3 Astra was retired on October 5, 2026. The Nox 2.1 family — Orion 2.1, Orion Flash 2.1 and Vela 2.1 — replaced the Nox 2 trio on October 22, 2026, and Vela 2.5 replaced Vela 2.1 as the everyday model in November 2026. Orion 2.5 and Orion Flash 2.5 joined the lineup in November 2026; the 2.1 models stay available.
Every conversation runs on the Nox model family, with a basic emergency alert when a message describes a possible emergency — a safety net, not a diagnosis or a guarantee. <a href="/transparency">Review Nox's transparency information</a>.
