The Significo Story

01
Significo's Bold Beginnings
Significo's Bold Beginnings

Signifco was founded in 2014 based on a seemingly paradoxical belief: it is technology, handled thoughtfully, that will recenter humanity in healthcare. This belief drives our mission to build technology that solves real problems and makes managing health a more empowering experience. At the heart of everything we do is a passion to give people back control of their health and reimagine healthcare to be more human.

Brave Ventures
Brave Ventures

Significo has been developing products for many years before evolving into Significo today. We saw a gap in employee wellbeing solutions: digital health products were cumbersome, requiring features that big employers need, but real people don’t care about. So we partnered with some of the largest insurers in the U.S. and Germany to build custom apps and bespoke solutions. We acquired Vilua Healthcare GmbH in 2022 to expand our team.

Our team has grown to over 100 experts in health, engineering, design, and business. Today, we provide partner solutions as well as SaaS products. We developed a personalized health recommendation engine, Recco, to integrate with existing digital experiences for employees and benefits members and provide more engaging, sustainable health and wellness information. We have built a smoking cessation app, a personalized nutrition and exercise app, a meditation coaching app for individuals with chronic illness, and more. And we’re just getting started.

The Future
The Future

We’re soon launching a digital therapeutics platform for chronic conditions that can be used for any intervention. As a company, we’ll be building the things that matter in health, solving problems that impact real people, real lives. And we’ll continue to partner with like-minded companies that believe in putting humanity back into healthcare, and that technology can improve lives and make managing health an empowering, efficient, and enjoyable experience.
