Our take
Koa Health aims to offer high-quality mental healthcare to people across the globe. It does so by creating comprehensive, personalised and ethical prevention-to-cure solutions using scientific evidence. It has a team of researchers, commercial leads, designers, and engineers, and works with academics and doctors to deliver the best quality products to those in need.
Its first product, Foundations, is an app that helps people to deal with stress and build resilience through wellness activities based on mindfulness, CBT, and positive psychology. Its second product, Mindset, is designed to help users with depression to better understand their mental state and is a secure, HIPAA-compliant program. These products are made available through workplace benefits schemes, partnerships with mental health providers or integrated into the services offered by its health plan business customers.
After the success of these products, Koa Health is currently developing two further clinical products, Foresight and Perspectives, which will expand the diagnoses that Koa can support. Its solutions are now available through Virgin Pulse following the companies' partnership, which will enable Koa to reach new markets. Its recent integration into International SOS's services will futher boost its reach.
