What Livelong Media does

Livelong Media is a privately held U.S. longevity media company founded in 2025 by veteran media entrepreneur Brad Inman. It publishes the Livelong weekly newsletter, which reaches over 300,000 health-conscious readers monthly and has more than 70,000 newsletter subscribers, alongside The Livelong Woman, a women's health sub-brand covering menopause, hormone therapy, cardiovascular health, and reproductive aging. The company operates the Livelong Women's Health Summit, an in-person conference series staged in San Francisco and New York with 100+ expert speakers, and runs the Inner Circle, an annual premium membership that bundles Studio Sessions, summit replays, and up to 10 CME/CE credits for medical professionals. Its technology stack is a content publishing platform built on beehiiv with an integrated community membership product; the sole AI surface is Ask Liv, a text-based Q&A feature powered by third-party vendor Ask Dewey.

Livelong monetizes through a diversified, media-typical revenue mix: recurring Inner Circle subscriptions, newsletter and sub-brand sponsorships (named partners include OneSkin and WeWard), ticket and VIP-package sales for the summits, and a media kit/sponsor program. Go-to-market is community-led: free weekly newsletters drive top-of-funnel acquisition, sponsored content and SEO-optimized articles capture mid-funnel engagement, summit events and Inner Circle membership convert the bottom of the funnel. Distribution is global on the digital side (website, beehiiv, video/podcast archive) and concentrated in two flagship U.S. metros for live events, with an Ambassadors program signaling expansion to additional cities in 2027.

The leadership team is a hybrid of media-operators and editorial specialists: Brad Inman (CEO), Katie Gaudu (COO, 200+ events background), Deirdre Steinmetz (CFO), Rachel Lehmann-Haupt (Editorial Director, UC Berkeley J-School alumna with NYT/Wired bylines), Erin Hunter (Senior Health Editor), Tiffany Nieslanik (Editor of The Livelong Woman), and Summer Strommen (Director of Strategic Partnerships). The company is founder-controlled with no disclosed outside funding rounds or institutional investors.

• GOOP: GOOP is a lifestyle/wellness media and commerce company with newsletters, content verticals, a community membership, in-person summits (In.Goop Health), and consumer-brand sponsorships — a direct analog to Livelong Women's health editorial and summit strategy.

Others

• Substack: Substack is the leading newsletter publishing and paid-subscription platform used by many independent longevity and health writers — an ecosystem/adjacent peer, comparable to Livelong's use of beehiiv for newsletter distribution and paid community monetization.
• beehiiv: beehiiv is the newsletter platform powering Livelong Media's core distribution and audience growth — a key infrastructure/ecosystem peer rather than a direct content competitor.

Emerging players

• InsideTracker: InsideTracker is a personalized health/longevity data platform offering biomarker analysis with content marketing around longevity science — a thematic peer given Livelong's coverage of lab biomarkers, healthspan, and longevity interventions aimed at the same proactive-consumer segment.

Broad incumbents
