WellWire is a health and nutrition platform for middle-aged users to manage their well-being and chronic conditions. Integrated with a physical device, it tracks personal and family health in one place, combining wellness and connectivity for better health management.
WHY?
As I grow, I’ve become more aware of the importance of health—not just for me, but for those I love. Every “Stay healthy” from family reminds me of our shared worries. Seeing my parents’ rising abnormal indexes made me realize how little we truly understand about their health—an eye-opening gap that led to the beginning of Wellwire.
