About This Idea

Spring Health leverages data to bring clarity to mental healthcare - from early detection, to full recovery and beyond. We’ve pioneered a new approach - Precision Mental Healthcare - that leverages data to identify the right treatment option for the right person at the right time, and predict what is most likely to help them recover. The Spring Health solution has led to 2X higher recovery rates, shorter recovery times by up to eight weeks, and lower healthcare costs. Our approach was recently recognized by the World Economic Forum and endorsed by the American Psychiatric Association, and is used by Fortune 500 companies like Gap and Whole Foods as well as high-growth technology companies like Box, Equinox, and Banfield Pet Hospital.
