The visibility gap

Today, whether a patient takes their medication is
completely invisible to their insurer.
That invisibility has a price.

Meet Sara

Sara has diabetes.
She takes medication
every day.

Like most chronic patients, Sara sometimes forgets. Sometimes the wrong dose. This is non-adherence — one of the most expensive and overlooked problems in healthcare. And nobody is watching.

How Kwelio works

We close the gap.
For the first time,
adherence is visible.

Kwelio connects the patient to the insurer through a verified data layer. The user app generates the data. The insurer platform makes it actionable.

01
Log your dose

Sara logs each medication through the Pop app. Verified, timestamped, immutable. Not a tap — a proof.

02
Earn as you go

Every logged dose earns Lio Points — redeemable for real rewards. Consistency becomes its own reward.

03
Insurer sees insights

Sara's insurer sees anonymised adherence scores — not raw data — and can intervene before a missed dose becomes a hospitalisation.

The science

Two scores.
One outcome.

model predictive accuracy
KAS — Kwelio Adherence Score
Measures consistency

A continuous score tracking how consistently a patient takes medication over time. Built from verified dose logs, not self-reporting.

KIS — Kwelio Intervention Score
Predicts non-adherence

A predictive model identifying when a patient is likely to stop. Insurers can intervene before the gap opens — not after the hospitalisation.

Founded on two stories

Two experiences.
One root problem.
No data.

"When my grandmother fell dangerously ill, we discovered she had been given the wrong medication and another dose had been doubled. One mistake nearly cost her life — and there was no system to catch it."

CTO & Co-Founder

"I was quoted AED 80,000 a year for health insurance because I have a chronic condition — priced for the risk of not taking my medication. That's the exact problem Kwelio solves."

Two different stories. Same root problem. No data. No visibility.

Without adherence data, the healthcare system is guessing — and patients pay the price. We built Kwelio to change that.
