  • A new point tracking system
  • Ability to sync with wearables
  • Size categories limited to small, medium and large (based on an estimated number of participants, not the size of the company)
  • Automated support from Wellable in terms of reminders, troubleshooting and team maintenance
  • Mobile app
  • Ability to earn additional points for engaging in healthy behaviors like drinking eight glasses of water, sleeping seven hours, meditating, etc.
  • Ability to view team standings in real time
