Hear from real people using our digital therapeutics

Daylight has allowed me to successfully manage my anxiety — and also to acknowledge that it’s okay to feel how I feel.

I’ve had insomnia for 18 years. Sleepio has brought my average sleep from two hours a night to seven hours a night.
Member in UKOctober, 2020

I have been suffering in silence for a long time and Daylight has been the first thing to ever actually help with my worry and anxiety.

Our values

See open positions

Ingenuity is our secret weapon

Hard problems are best solved with applied creativity. When a door is locked shut, we hunt for a window. When humans don’t scale, we create virtual therapists. Even in the tightest of spots, with just our wits, lateral thinking, and a blowtorch, there’s nothing we can’t solve. Although in practice we rarely need the blowtorch.

You gotta have soul

There’s a certain energy to people who work here. A positivity, an infectious curiosity, an emotional generosity. We celebrate our differences, care for our users and look after each other. It’s what the French would probably call joie de vivre, and so would we if we could spell it. After all, the whole reason for good health is to enjoy life.

Greatness through humility

We hire brilliant people who ask stupid questions, give their best ideas away and celebrate others before themselves. And brilliant people know they can always improve. We admit when we’re wrong, take responsibility by default and embrace failure as a step towards greatness. We’re constructively honest with our peers – not to lay blame but to ask how we can all do better. That’s why there’s no I in Bg Health (ahem).

The tenacity to move mountains

It takes unbelievable grit, resilience and plain old hard work to achieve the apparently impossible. And we’re willing to do the hard yards to transform healthcare. Even when it feels like walking over hot coals. Or pulling teeth. Or any other painful metaphor you can dream up. Because nothing worth achieving is easy. Now, where do you want that mountain?
