Company mission
To turn every device on the planet, whether smartphone or tablet, into a self-monitoring healthcare platform.
45% female employees
Our take
Lifelight is a game-changing technology that allows a smartphone or tablet device to measure blood pressure, pulse, and breathing rate simply by a patient looking into the device's built-in camera for 40 seconds. The technology is completely contactless, with no additional hardware needed, and is designed to save healthcare staff time while improving patient experience.
The 2020 pandemic accelerated the demand for scalable remote patient monitoring, enabling Lifelight to grow and secure funds towards further developing its innovative product. As well as improving the overall patient experience, the 100% non-contact device enables self-management, often via the patient’s own smartphone, which reduces the need for unnecessary in-surgery or at-home visits.
Lifelight was selected as one of the winners of the Novartis Biome UK Heart Health Catalyst 2022 award, recognizing solutions that empower patients to improve their heart health. The company was also named "one to watch" by the DIT's Digital Health Playbook. Both accolades showcase the industry interest that has been generated for Lifelight's technology, and hint at a bright future of opportunity for the company.
