Our take

ahead is a mobile app designed to help individuals to make long-lasting personal changes across their career, health and relationships.

Rather than relying on outdated self-help books, the team behind ahead want to help people to set and achieve realistic goals, via bite-sized, science-driven tools and smart insights that can be directly applied in real life.

The founders previously set up ChefsList, a SaaS B2B start-up, and bring decades of experience in fast-growth startups. The company has raised seed investment from Speedinvest, enabling them to expand its team.
