Built for integration from day one
Unlike many wellness solutions that treat integration as an afterthought, VIWELL is designed with an API-first approach, ensuring that our platform can be easily and quickly integrated into your existing infrastructure.
Here's what that means in practical terms:
1) Embed well-being features directly into existing platform
With a flexible well-being API, partners can add wellness tools to their own platforms. Whether you’re an HR tech company, insurance provider, or brokerage firm, this integration lets users access well-being resources in one place. Features like personalized wellness plans, preventive care resources, and engagement challenges become a natural part of your service offering.
2) Sync user data for seamless onboarding and engagement tracking
Integration makes sure that employee data moves smoothly between systems, which helps simplify the sign-up process and keeps everything up to date. When data is synced automatically, organizations can easily see who’s using the well-being tools, how it’s helping them, and what’s working — all without needing to enter information by hand. This creates a better experience for both employees and admins, and helps businesses make smart decisions to support their teams' health and well-being.
3) Enable secure single sign-on (SSO) and authentication flows
Keeping employee health data safe is very important. With secure single sign-on (SSO) and login systems in place, employees can access well-being features easily and safely — using just one set of login details. This not only makes things more convenient for users but also keeps their personal information protected at all times.
4) Customize touch points based on client branding and use cases
VIWELL can be fully white-labeled or co-branded to match your platform’s design, tone, and functionality. This flexibility ensures a seamless, professional integration that feels native to your product—whether you're in HR tech, insurance, or enterprise services. Tailor the experience to align with each client’s brand and user expectations for a personalized, consistent well-being solution.
Mutual value creation: More engagement, less churn
Integrating well-being features doesn’t just expand your service offering — it creates long-term value by enhancing employee engagement and reducing churn.
Here’s how VIWELL delivers strategic benefits across partner types:
1) Insurance providers offering proactive health management
Lower long-term health claims through preventive lifestyle support
Access better insights into insuree health risks
Tailor insurance products based on individualized wellness data
Case Example:
A regional life and health insurance company integrated well-being analytics into its member portal. Within six months, they observed a 12% drop in high-risk claims and used aggregated stress and sleep data to develop personalized policy recommendations for members. Policyholders receiving these recommendations renewed at a 20% higher rate.
2) HR tech platforms enabling data-driven performance conversations
Embed wellness tools that enhance core HR functionalities
Leverage wellness data to inform performance and engagement strategies
Increase platform stickiness and expand client lifetime value
Case Example:
An HRIS provider embedded well-being tracking and burnout alerts into their performance dashboard. Their enterprise clients began using this data to trigger monthly check-ins, which led to a 25% reduction in voluntary turnover and significantly higher usage of mental health resources.
3) Portfolio companies demonstrating ROI on well-being initiative
Benchmark and track workforce wellness across multiple entities
Improve operational productivity and reduce absenteeism
Demonstrate ROI of people investments across your portfolio
Case Example:
A private equity firm deployed the well-being platform across six portfolio companies to standardize wellness support and track productivity indicators. Over nine months, absenteeism dropped by 18%, and aggregated data helped the firm make better people-focused decisions during board reviews.
4) Brokerage firms: Expanded value-add services
Differentiate benefits offerings with integrated well-being support
Enhance client retention by addressing emerging workforce needs
Position as a strategic advisor with measurable impact
Case Example:
A global employee benefits broker offered integrated wellness tools as part of a bundled package for mid-sized clients. This helped the broker win a competitive RFP, increase renewal rates by 30%, and position itself as a strategic advisor, not just a policy distributor.
5) Government entities: Support National workforce health
Promote wellness among educators, healthcare workers, and civil servants
Combat burnout in high-demand roles with tailored well-being content
Ensure data privacy and compliance with regional regulations
Case Example:
A Ministry of Education launched the well-being platform across public schools to support educators. The system provided localized content and burnout prevention tools. Within a year, teacher engagement scores rose by 22%, and stress-related sick leave decreased across several regions.
Secure, compliant, and regionally hosted
As data privacy and regulatory compliance continue to grow in importance, embedding a wellbeing solution that aligns with both local and international standards is essential. Seamless integration supports secure and compliant data management in the following ways:
1) Data security and compliance with local regulations
A regionally hosted well-being solution ensures alignment with data protection regulations such as the Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) in Saudi Arabia and the Data Protection Law (DPL) in the UAE. For organizations operating in these jurisdictions, localized data hosting simplifies compliance, making integration more straightforward and secure. This approach reinforces trust with clients and employees by safeguarding personal data and meeting strict regional governance standards.
2) Simplified integration for government and enterprise clients
For government entities and enterprises with stringent data security requirements, partnering with a compliant and secure well-being platform significantly reduces integration challenges. A solution that adheres to robust data governance standards allows these organizations to implement well-being programs with confidence, ensuring full compliance with applicable regulations while maintaining the highest levels of data protection.
AI-powered, people-centric
Personalization is a critical factor in driving engagement, and artificial intelligence plays a key role in delivering a truly tailored well-being experience. When integrated effectively, AI can elevate the value of your employee wellbeing offering in several impactful ways:
1) Predictive well-being trends and insights
AI models can process and analyze wellness data to identify emerging trends in employee wellbeing, including early signs of burnout or health-related risks. These predictive insights empower HR teams to take timely, proactive measures—addressing issues before they escalate. By anticipating challenges rather than reacting to them, organizations can strengthen employee retention, reduce downtime, and foster a more resilient, engaged workforce.
2) Smart nudges and behavioral reminders
AI-powered nudges deliver timely, personalized prompts that encourage users to stay engaged with their wellbeing journey. For instance, if an employee has not interacted with the platform for a period of time, they may receive a gentle reminder or motivational message tailored to their needs. These intelligent nudges support consistent participation, helping individuals stay focused on their well-being goals while reinforcing long-term engagement.
3) Customized content recommendations
AI enables dynamic content personalization by aligning recommendations with each user’s preferences, behavior patterns, and well-being journey. Whether it’s expert articles, guided workouts, or mindfulness exercises, the platform curates targeted content that supports individual health goals. This level of personalization enhances relevance, drives sustained engagement, and makes the overall wellbeing experience more impactful and accessible.
Plug in and scale — without the headache
The ideal well-being solution is designed for easy implementation, requiring minimal resources. Here’s how a smooth integration process ensures scalability without overwhelming your team:
1) Dedicated technical onboarding and support
A streamlined onboarding process ensures a smooth and efficient start for partners, providing clear guidance on the technical aspects of integration. Support teams are readily available with the tools and resources needed to complete the process quickly, allowing your platform to deliver wellbeing features without any unnecessary delays
2) Co-branded marketing and rollout assets
To ensure a successful launch of integrated wellness features, co-branded marketing materials are provided. This empowers your marketing teams to effectively promote the well-being solution, highlighting the added value and benefits of the integration to your clients.
3) Partner success managers for ongoing support
Dedicated partner success managers are available to provide ongoing support throughout the integration process and beyond. Whether it's offering technical assistance or optimizing the platform for improved engagement, these managers ensure that your wellbeing solution consistently delivers value and meets the evolving needs of your clients.
4) Flexible revenue-sharing or licensing models
To enable partners to scale quickly and efficiently, flexible revenue-sharing and licensing models are available. Whether you prefer subscription-based pricing, one-time fees, or a hybrid approach, these options offer the flexibility to integrate wellness features in a way that aligns with your financial objectives.
Final words
As the demand for integrated well-being solutions continues to grow, now is the ideal time to incorporate workforce wellness features into your platform.
