To make healthy living second nature. We exist to help people take control of their health and save our NHS. How? By combining behavioural science with smart technology and incredible people to tackle the global epidemic of chronic lifestyle diseases once and for all.

???? Do the right thing

We’re trying to solve a global problem with no easy solution. We expect everyone that joins us to be on board with that & understand the context of why we do what we do

???? Keep growing

We believe your only barriers are those that you set yourself. We want people who have a thirst for knowledge and self-development. Those who believe that in the future, they can be better.

???? Let data guide you

We are not our customers. It’s important to stay humble and make decisions based on the data and information available to us, not our own biases and preconceptions.

???? Enjoy the ride

Fast-growing companies have a lot of uncertainty and many course corrections. That can be exciting, empowering, but above all, stressful. Recognising this and being comfortable with it is a key part of being successful with us.
