01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
PhysioHealth was an enterprise health-benefits platform from Y Combinator's Winter 2016 batch that rewarded employees for living healthy and lowered health costs for employers. Its mobile app connected to Fitbit, Apple Health, Google Fit and other trackers, delivered one-minute workouts and stretching/breathing coaching through the workday, and ran a brand-sponsored rewards network. It reported three global customers covering 32,000 employees, 33% employee engagement (about five times typical wellness programmes), plus pilot results of 27% higher productivity and 23% less back pain.
