What Lifeness does

Lifeness AS is a Norwegian digital health company founded in 2018 and headquartered in Tromsø, Norway. The company operates a digital platform for weight-care and lifestyle disease management, connecting healthcare providers with patients through iOS and Android mobile applications and a clinician-facing web dashboard. Its lead product, Wellapy, is a CE-marked digital therapeutic for obesity that delivers clinically validated, multi-component weight-loss treatment programs, while the broader Lifeness platform supports remote patient monitoring, treatment plan personalization, and asynchronous patient-clinician communication. Lifeness serves three articulated customer segments: individual patients seeking weight-loss treatment; health professionals (doctors, nurses, therapists, coaches) requiring remote patient-management tooling; and institutional buyers including hospitals, clinics, municipalities, and foundations looking to scale obesity treatment capacity without proportional clinical headcount.
