Whoop sounds like its the best in this class.  This article compares it to the Oura as well.

The main difference is the depth of insight — Whoop provides the most detailed analysis, while Oura Ring mostly focuses on sleep quality.

What I like the sound of is "Whoop knows that too much data can feel overwhelming, so they lead with simplicity. Instead of throwing complex charts at you right away, the app presents an overview with 4 core metrics. It's a quick, clear snapshot of what matters most today."

Whoop seems to be doing great despite the competition.  I wonder why?  
With that form factor, it might as well be a watch, so what's the advantage over an Oura ring for example?

Buy Apple Watch Series 8 if...you want a really great smartwatch, own an iPhone, and want great sports and fitness, and health tracking experience.

Buy Whoop 4.0 if...you already have a smartwatch or you want a device that zeroes in on recovery and offers the strongest sleep, recovery, and health monitoring support. You also don't have to charge it every day.

Up on the roof above corporate headquarters, Will Ahmed eyed the weather as April wind and rain swirled. “We’re going to make this a surgical strike,” he said, and off we trotted toward two giant baths filled with 42-degree water. We slid in, dunking our heads beneath the surface—and were ...
