Our Mission
At Big Health, our mission is to help millions back to good mental health by providing fully digital, non-drug options for the most common mental health conditions. Our digital therapeutics—SleepioRx for insomnia and DaylightRx for anxiety, both recently cleared by the FDA—provide treatment anytime, anywhere. Our digital program, Spark Direct, helps to reduce the impact of persistent depressive symptoms.
In pursuit of our mission, we’ve pioneered the first at-scale digital therapeutic business model, in partnership with some of the most prominent global healthcare organizations, including leading Fortune 500 healthcare companies and Scotland’s NHS. Through product innovation, robust clinical evaluation, and a commitment to equity at scale, we are designing the next generation of medicine and the future of mental health care.
Our Vision
Over the next 5-10 years, we believe digital therapeutics (DTx) will transform the delivery of health care worldwide, providing access to safe and effective evidence-based treatments to billions. Big Health is in a prime position to take the lead in this transformation.
