Systems Philosophy

Build Systems
Not Motivation

We think like engineers. Problems come from bad systems. We fix systems, not people.

This is not wellness culture. No pep talks. No coaching. No guilt trips. We build systems that make healthy choices easy.

Three Main Ideas

Our philosophy is built on three key ideas about how systems work. These ideas guide everything we design and build.

System Problems

"People aren't broken. Systems are."

When lots of people fail at something, the system is broken. Not the people. When many groups show the same problem, we need to fix the design.

Real Example

Better road design stops more car crashes than driver education.

Easy Choices

"Health shouldn't be hard."

Real change happens when the right choice is the easy choice. Good systems remove obstacles from healthy living.

Real Example

Automatic retirement savings work better than trying to remember to save.

Design Matters

"How things are built controls how we act."

Our environment controls our behavior. Change the system, change the behavior. Willpower alone doesn't work.

Real Example

Smaller plates help people eat less more than teaching portion sizes.

How We're Different

We reject wellness culture's focus on individuals. We focus on systems that fix root problems, not symptoms.
