Our take
Mental health has accelerated as a topic in public discussion over the past decade, leading to the rise of products such as Calm and Headspace, promoting positive mental health through meditation and quality sleep. Big Health delivers digital therapeutics for the most prevalent mental health conditions, beginning with "Sleepio" for insomnia, and "Daylight" for anxiety.
There are many products competing to become part of our daily routine for sleep and mental well-being, with some taking a more scientific approach than others. Big Health's products are scientifically backed, with its main product Sleepio being proven to help for sleep and mental health. The company's main selling point is that goals are personalized as the product learns about each user, delivering unique experiences for different people.
Given the complexity of mental wellness, there should be plenty of space for new techniques/products for years to come, meaning that Big Health should be afforded plenty space to grow. The company has taken the approach of selling to businesses (so it can provide the product to its employees) - a smart strategy as individuals aren't yet used to spending large amounts on mental well-being.
