Membership enables us to deliver on our mission

"At Visible, we are different from fitness tracker companies like Apple, Garmin and Fitbit. We don’t make money by selling devices for a profit. When you buy an armband from us, you’re paying exactly what it costs us to get them.

Our focus is on creating powerful software that helps you measure and manage your illness. The way you can support this work is through membership to our software.

This support is crucial. It funds the development of our app and algorithms, and ensures we are constantly improving. It helps pay for our Member Support team who are there to respond to any questions you might have. And it fuels our investment in cutting-edge research into illnesses which have been underfunded and overlooked for far too long.

Without membership fees, sadly none of this would be possible."

Harry Leeming, Co-Founder

Future Healthcare Coverage

We understand that a membership might not be affordable for everyone right now. That's why we are committed to expanding access to Visible. Our long-term goal is to make Visible available free of charge at the point of care through existing healthcare systems. We are actively working to build the necessary evidence base to partner with insurance providers and health providers in the United States, and the NHS in the United Kingdom.

This is a long road, but one we are working hard on. Achieving this will take time, dedication, and support from our community. If we are successful, availability through health providers will depend on specific provider coverage and criteria.
