Our values
- Compassion
We encourage and support people as they work with us to improve their health, with empathy, understanding and respect.
- Trust
Improvements in health cannot happen without easy-to-access, clinically-validated interventions people can depend on for treatment and support.
- Evidence
When it comes to digital health, we believe scientific research and meaningful innovations, driven by that research, are the way forward.
Our approach
Breakthrough technology for flexible, effective care
Because people’s health and safety are at the centre of everything we do, we conduct comprehensive research on all products—from testing concepts to evaluating usability with diverse users.
Treatment programs are validated through randomized controlled trials (RCTs), including pivotal clinical trials towards FDA clearance, and audited by third parties to ensure unbiased solutions.
- Customers and end-users want connected solutions, not fragmentation.
- A commitment to building our ethical principles into our products as they’re developed.
