From design to testable health app in days

Create custom digital health apps for research studies and user-testing.

Hero

Study-ready Apps in 3 simple steps

The platform for launching research-ready digital health apps without custom software development.

Step 1

Configure your App interface

Use customisable templates and drag-and-drop components to build your App interface without writing code.

Built to remove the delay between design and testing

Spend less time building software and focus on testing your designs and generating evidence at the earliest stages of innovation.

Move from design to real-world testing

Remove the bottleneck of development in the early stage. Turn your designs into functional prototypes and start learning from your users before investing in bespoke software development.

Let co-designers test their own ideas

Extend participatory research beyond the design phase by enabling patients, clinicians, and stakeholders to test, evaluate, and iterate on their ideas within the same development cycle.

Collect data from wearables and sensors

Collect wearable and sensor data early to check usability, quality, and feasibility in real-world conditions. Integrate devices and validate data collection pipelines from the start.

Focus on research, not software

Avoid the overheads associated with managing developers and IT infrastructure. Let your team focus on what is important - studies and evidence.

Test your system in full, not in isolation.

Bring interfaces, data collection, algorithms and workflows together in one environment to validate how your complete solution performs in the real world - reducing siloed development and uncovering issues earlier.

Maintain full control over your research and data

Build, test, and refine digital health tools with your own team and users, without being limited by technical expertise. Keep ownership of your data, workflows, and research decisions throughout the process by avoiding reliance on external developers in the early stages.

Demonstrate feasibility at the earliest stages

Demonstrate traction, validate your approach and gather real-world evidence. Iterate quickly, pivot with confidence, and demonstrate technical feasibility to de-risk bespoke development.

Manage data securely from the start

Collect, store and handle user data in a secure environment designed to meet institutional compliance requirements.
