Building a Personalized Health Tracking Agent for Autoimmune Diseases with Agent.ai
In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has opened up new possibilities for improving healthcare, especially for individuals with chronic conditions. One area where AI can be incredibly helpful is in managing autoimmune diseases, which can cause various symptoms like pain, fatigue, emotional fluctuations, and more. In this article, I’ll walk you through how I created a personalized health tracking agent using Agent.ai to assist people with autoimmune diseases. The agent provides users with detailed health reports and personalized advice based on their input.
Why a Health Tracking Agent for Autoimmune Diseases?
Autoimmune diseases affect millions of people worldwide and often involve complex symptoms that vary from person to person. From chronic pain and fatigue to emotional distress and joint swelling, managing these conditions can be overwhelming. An AI-powered agent can help:
- Track Symptoms: The agent can gather detailed information about the user's symptoms and track changes over time.
- Provide Personalized Advice: Based on user input, the agent can offer personalized suggestions for managing symptoms.
- Generate Health Reports: The agent can generate a health report summarizing the user’s current condition and give advice on lifestyle changes, medication, and other treatments.
The Technology Behind the Agent
I used Agent.ai, an AI-powered platform, to create this health tracking agent. It allows you to build custom workflows with triggers, actions, and AI responses to create an interactive bot. Here’s a breakdown of the steps I followed to build the agent:
- Gathering User Input: I designed a set of questions that the agent asks the user to assess their condition.
- Processing Responses: Based on the user’s responses, I used conditional logic to determine the next step or advice to provide.
- Generating Health Reports: Using an LLM (Large Language Model), I trained the agent to generate a detailed health report based on the responses. This report is sent to the user’s email address.
- Personalized Health Advice: The agent provides tailored advice for managing symptoms such as pain, fatigue, emotional state, and more.
Step-by-Step: Building the Health Tracking Agent
1. Setting Up the Agent
The first step was to set up the agent in Agent.ai. I created a new agent, named it “AutoCare AI,” and connected it to a trigger that would initiate the workflow. The trigger asks the user for their email and basic details.
2. Collecting Responses
I designed a set of questions to collect the following information from the user:
- Pain Level (1–10 scale)
- Fatigue (Yes/No)
- Emotional State (1–5 scale)
- Morning Stiffness Duration
- Joint Swelling (Yes/No)
- Sleep Quality (1–5 scale)
- Stress Level (1–5 scale)
- Activity Level (1–5 scale)
These questions help the agent assess the user’s current health status and track symptoms that are common in autoimmune diseases.
3. Using Conditional Logic
After collecting the user’s responses, I used If-Else conditions to process the answers. For example, if the pain level is greater than 7, the agent advises the user to consult a doctor. If fatigue is reported, the agent suggests strategies for managing tiredness.
4. Generating the Health Report
Once all the questions are answered, I used the LLM to generate a health report. This report includes a summary of the user’s current health status along with personalized advice for managing each symptom. The report is then sent to the user's email address.
5. Sending the Email
Once the report is generated, the agent sends the health report to the user's email address using the Send Email action in Agent.ai. The email includes a professional subject line and a detailed body with all the data collected and AI-generated advice.
6. Providing Empathy and Support
Throughout the interaction, the agent uses empathetic language to make the user feel supported. This includes acknowledging the user’s challenges and offering encouragement. For example:
“I understand that managing autoimmune diseases can be challenging, but with the right care and attention, you can improve your quality of life. Please take this advice and make small adjustments to your daily routine. If you experience any worsening symptoms, don’t hesitate to contact your healthcare provider.”
Conclusion:
By using Agent.ai, I was able to build a personalized health tracking agent for autoimmune diseases that can collect symptom data, generate detailed reports, and provide tailored advice. This AI-powered solution helps individuals with autoimmune conditions better manage their health, reduce symptoms, and improve their overall well-being.
I hope this project inspires you to explore AI solutions for healthcare. Whether you're developing a similar project or just getting started with AI, the possibilities are endless. Good luck with your health tracking journey, and remember—technology can be a valuable ally in improving your quality of life!

Next Steps
If you’re interested in building a similar project or enhancing this one, here are some steps you can take:
- Add More Questions: Expand the scope by adding more health-related questions, such as medication adherence or food intake.
- Improve the AI Model: Train the AI to recognize patterns in data and provide even more personalized advice.
- Integrate with Other Health Tools: Connect the agent to fitness trackers or health apps to get real-time data.
