Our take

Lively is a platform offering modern Health Savings Accounts (HSAs). As high-deductible health plans are regularly replacing traditional deductible plans in many employee benefit schemes, Lively is capitalizing by offering their consumer-first, paperwork-light accounts to employers and individuals.

The startup will use its sizeable investment funding and revenue to build more consumer tools, scale its team and further expand its offerings to financial institutions and employers, exemplified by a 2021 deal to provide accounts via BMO Harris.

While the platform’s product-first approach has seen it successfully achieve $500m AUM faster than any other HSA provider, it is ultimately a savings account provider. That means market turbulence could hurt the company’s bottom line. Despite this, its continual addition of diverse sets of customers should ensure Lively’s growth.
