ABOUT ELFIE

Elfie is the first completely free, gamified mobile app that rewards users for monitoring their health. Our vision is to become the world's largest self-reported medical record platform, supporting all therapeutic areas in a single, gamified, and free app for maximum impact.

We have a footprint in 7 countries (Brazil, France, United Kingdom, Turkey, Egypt, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Vietnam), growing to 12 by the end of 2024 and 25 by the end of 2025.

How do we monetize

We have 2 independent yet synergic business models:

1. Pharmaceutical companies: Elfie's free application is sponsored by pharmaceutical companies, who need to drive treatment adherence and access anonymized real-world data. Pharmaceutical companies cover our company operational costs and the promotion of the application.
2. Insurers and employers: Elfie premium version (aka ElfieWorks) is an employee health program sponsored by employers and insurers. These companies need employees to stay in good health and engaged to increase productivity and keep ever-increasing healthcare costs under control. ElfieWorks is designed and distributed in partnership with a global insurance broker and partner insurers.

What is our culture

We have one single NorthStar at Elfie: maximising global health impact. It is a measurable KPI that is a function of the number of lives impacted and the level of impact on each individual. Everybody's KPIs across all departments are aligned with this. All our partnerships and revenue streams are also aligned with this.

We have 4 values:

Patient-first: Whatever goes against our North Star (maximising patient health impact) is eliminated, all ideas and projects are prioritised accordingly.

Think big: We don't allow our fears and unknowns to limit our ambition and solutions.

Take ownership: We are not tasked to execute a process but responsible to find a scalable solution.

Resilience: We don't allow challenges and setbacks to lower our motivation and commitment to our mission, regardless of the personal discomfort it means.
