Death Clock – a creative application utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) – has the capability to accurately predict a person’s lifespan based on various factors such as diet.
Launched in July, this AI-powered application employs advanced algorithms to forecast users’ longevity by analyzing over 1,200 studies on lifespan and data from 53 million participants.

Users of Death Clock will be required to fill out a questionnaire that includes basic information such as age, gender, and ethnicity, as well as detailed questions regarding family history, mental health, and chronic illnesses. Dietary habits, exercise routines, stress levels, and sleep duration are also incorporated into the advanced algorithms to provide the most accurate predictions of an individual’s time of death.
Additionally, financial planners are showing significant interest in Death Clock due to its potential in promoting more careful financial planning for retirement.
“A major concern for seniors, particularly retirees, is outliving their savings,” financial planner Ryan Zabrowski shared with Forbes. He further noted that AI-integrated tools like Death Clock could assist individuals in making informed financial decisions to better manage this issue in their later years.
While the application is primarily designed to estimate lifespan, it is quickly gaining popularity due to broader applications. Users are not only curious about their death date but also seek to gain insights on improving health and making better lifestyle choices. The app offers personalized recommendations on nutrition, physical activity, and stress management, thereby helping users adopt healthier habits to extend their lifespan.
After evaluating information from various data points, Death Clock provides quite optimistic results. For instance, TechCrunch reporter Anthony Ha recently used the application and discovered that he is projected to die at age 90, with a chance of extending his lifespan to 103 years if he makes certain lifestyle changes.
With over 125,000 downloads since its launch in July, Death Clock is undoubtedly one of the most popular AI-assisted applications currently discussed.
