Aptar Digital Health and ŌURA Collaborate to Advance Migraine Insights by Connecting Migraine Buddy® with Oura Ring

Key Terms

biometric signals technical

Biometric signals are measurable body outputs—like heart rate, breathing, skin sweat, movement or pupil changes—that devices and sensors capture to track health, identity or behavior. For investors, these signals matter because they drive product features, recurring data services and regulatory/privacy risks in markets such as wearables, digital health and security; think of them as real‑time fingerprints that enable new revenue streams but also raise accuracy, safety and compliance questions.

biometric data technical

Biometric data are unique physical or behavioral traits—such as fingerprints, facial scans, voice patterns, iris images, heart rhythm or walking style—used to identify or verify a person, like a living password tied to your body. For investors this matters because handling these sensitive data brings legal rules, breach and liability risks, and reputational consequences that can affect costs, regulatory fines and a company’s stock value.

heart rate variability medical

Heart rate variability (HRV) measures the tiny differences in time between successive heartbeats, reflecting how flexibly the nervous system adjusts to stress, rest, and activity. Investors watch HRV when evaluating health-related products or clinical data because higher, more responsive variability is generally a sign of good cardiovascular and autonomic health, while consistent low variability can indicate stress or illness—similar to a car that shifts smoothly versus one that struggles to change gears.

neurological disorder medical

A neurological disorder is a condition that affects the brain, spinal cord or nerves, causing problems with movement, thinking, sensation or mood—think of it as a fault in the body’s wiring or software that controls how the body and mind work. Investors care because these disorders drive demand for diagnostics, treatments and long-term care; progress or setbacks in research, approvals and reimbursement can meaningfully change a company’s revenue prospects and the value of related investments.

hormonal fluctuations medical

Hormonal fluctuations are the natural rises and falls in chemical messengers produced by the body that regulate mood, energy, appetite, and physical function — like a thermostat that turns heating up or down. Investors care because these shifts can influence consumer behavior, product demand, clinical trial results, workforce productivity and safety signals for health-related products, so they can affect revenue, trial outcomes and regulatory attention.

The integration aims to empower millions of users with deeper insights into migraine triggers through biometric signals.

CRYSTAL LAKE, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Aptar Digital Health, part of AptarGroup, Inc. (NYSE:ATR), a global leader in drug and consumer product dosing, dispensing and protection technologies, today announced a partnership with ŌURA to integrate Aptar’s Migraine Buddy^® with Oura Ring. Migraine Buddy, a leading migraine tracking app with millions of users, will connect with the continuous biometric data from Oura Ring, with the goal of providing individuals with personalized insights into their migraine patterns and potential triggers.

Migraine Buddy is designed to empower people suffering from headaches and migraine through data-driven insights. Its user-friendly design and robust tracking capabilities have quickly garnered widespread popularity, making it a top-choice mobile application. By integrating Migraine Buddy’s detailed symptom tracking, reporting, and coaching capabilities, with continuous biometric data from Oura Ring, including sleep, heart rate variability, temperature trends, cycle insights, and more, users may be able to gain visibility into potential migraine triggers and related physiological patterns.

While the combined solution is designed for everyone, it is especially valuable for women, who experience migraines more frequently due to hormonal fluctuations. With the majority of Migraine Buddy users being women, the ability to connect Oura Ring to migraine data may help enlighten how hormonal shifts influence symptoms and support a deeper understanding of overall health.

Migraine is a neurological disorder characterized by recurring headaches of moderate to severe intensity, often accompanied by nausea, sensitivity to light, and other symptoms. It affects approximately 12% of the global population¹, disproportionately impacting women due to hormonal factors. According to the World Health Organization, migraines are responsible for high population levels of disability and ill health².

“This partnership is about empowering our users with seamless and fully automated tracking tools to more deeply understand what could impact their migraine episodes,” said Aurore Beaume, Chief Business Officer, Aptar Digital Health. “Bringing our insights together aims to create an even more holistic experience that can help people recognize patterns and make choices to enhance their health.”

“Our collaboration with ŌURA reflects Aptar’s commitment to drive innovation across the entire journey from formulation to patients,” said Gael Touya, President, Aptar Pharma. “Connecting Migraine Buddy with Oura Ring brings Aptar Pharma closer to the future management of health where data empowers every patient to anticipate and better manage their conditions.”

“At ŌURA, we’re committed to ensuring that continuous biometric insights play a meaningful role in how people understand and manage their health,” said Dorothy Kilroy, Chief Commercial Officer at ŌURA. “This is especially true for women, whose experiences—including migraines—are often shaped by hormonal shifts. As a company deeply invested in advancing women’s health, our partnership with Aptar Digital Health builds on that mission, bringing together Oura’s real-time signals with Migraine Buddy’s rich tracking experience to give individuals a clearer, more actionable view of their migraine patterns. It’s a powerful step toward a future where migraine care is more proactive and grounded in each person’s unique physiology.”
