Two ways to start

Two research pathways.

Most teams begin with a 4-week decentralized pilot, then graduate to a clinical study when the signal warrants it.

Decentralized Pilot

A 4-week real-world study.

A fast, wearable-enabled study designed to detect signal in real-world conditions before committing to a full protocol.

  • 4-week IRB-approved remote protocol
  • Wearable + validated survey data
  • Real-world adherence tracking
  • Real-world cohort analysis
  • Automated participant engagement

Full Clinical Research

A 1 to 6 month protocol.

IRB-approved, publication-grade research built around your specific hypothesis. Multi-arm and parallel designs supported.

  • 1 to 6 month protocols
  • IRB-approved methodology
  • Clinical-grade datasets
  • Multi-arm and parallel designs
  • Build category-defining evidence

Start with a pilot. A lower-cost way to test for real signal before scaling to a full clinical study.
THE RESEARCH BOTTLENECK

Traditional Research Wasn't Built for Modern Health

  • Site-based clinical trials cost $500k+ and take 12 to 24 months
  • In-clinic recruiting caps your sample at a few hundred participants
  • Real-world adherence rarely matches in-clinic adherence
  • Trial subjects don't reflect the people actually using the product

For supplements, devices, ingredients, and emerging modalities, the gap between traditional research and real-world use keeps widening.

THE SHIFT

Bring the Study to the Participant

01 / Community

Remote, wearable-enabled studies with 10,000+ health-engaged participants ready to enroll.

02 / Method

Continuous biometric data, validated surveys, and protocols built for real-world conditions.

03 / Outcomes

Data you can defend, on a timeline you can plan around.

DECENTRALIZED RESEARCH, END TO END

Built for Real-World Studies

We run the full research lifecycle. Protocol design, study operations, biometric capture, and analysis.

Pilot to Publication

Start with a 4-week decentralized pilot. Graduate to a full clinical study when the signal warrants it.

Wearable-Native Protocols

Continuous biometric capture from Oura, Apple Watch, Whoop, and others. Paired with validated PROs (PSQI, PROMIS, etc.) for a full picture of outcomes.

Built-In Participant Community

A community of 10,000+ health-engaged participants ready to enroll. Recruitment that took months at a clinic site now takes days.

Defensible Methodology

Pre-registered protocols, IRB oversight on every study, validated measurement instruments.

Real-World Conditions

Participants live their normal lives during the study. Adherence, dropout, and outcomes reflect what actually happens when your product reaches users.

Full-Service Research Operations

Protocol design, IRB pathway, recruitment, onboarding, biometric monitoring, statistical analysis, and reporting. One team, one timeline.

Featured Study

Functional Coffee: A Placebo-Controlled RCT on Sleep, Mood & Gut Health

A 28-day randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled trial measured the effects of a functional coffee alternative on REM sleep, digestive health, and mood. 70 healthy adults wore Oura Rings continuously and completed validated PROMIS surveys.
