About us

Since 2016 we have been building digital health software that puts people first. Balm is where that experience comes together.

Since 2016

Our story

Significo was founded in 2016 on one belief: technology, handled thoughtfully, can put people back at the centre of healthcare. For almost ten years we have built digital health products for insurers, employers and the people they care for.

Interdisciplinary

Our team

Our team brings together experts in health, psychology, engineering, design and business — from many nationalities and with very different perspectives.

We share one goal: making health technology more human.
