Our Mission


“To enhance and extend the life of humans by
providing them with the tools and the
understanding to change their lifestyle in a
positive way.”

“We do this by combining smartphones, life
expectancy, game theory, social interaction and
some clever hardware to drive behavior change”

The Solution
    APP




• The IGNITE APP allows users to monitor their life
  expectancy in real time and modify it instantly based on
  behavior changes.

• It allows user to track their progress over time,
  everything from their weight to lifestyle changes.

• It allows earn perks in return for lifestyle changes.

• It allows them to set up competitive peer to peer
  behavior through social media.

•   Users can earn “time credits” over time based on extending their lives.

•   They can only use these credits to purchase/subsidize life extending
    products/services such as Gym Memberships, Healthy Food, DNA tests etc.

•   The base of these credits are micro-lives that already have a market value of
    $2.70 however the marketplace will define the actual value of the time credits5

•   Advanced fraud protection and algorithms protect against gaming of the system.

•   Eventually open this out into an health insurance marketplace.

•   Open API allows other products to participate in the marketplace as long as we
    acquire their data.



“An SOA online survey of 1,000 adults found that 83% would be willing to follow a healthy lifestyle program
if they received incentives from their health insurance plan.”
Revenue
• The app will be a free app, with in app purchases            Model

Microlifes

“a microlife is 30 minutes of your life expectancy “
Life expectancy for a man aged 22 in the UK is currently about 79 years, which is an extra 57 years, or 20,800
days, or 500,000 hours, or 1 million half hours. So, a young man of 22 typically has 1,000,000 half-hours (57
years) ahead of him, the same as a 26 year-old woman. We define a microlife as the result of a chronic risk
that reduces life, on average, by just one of the million half hours that they have left.

Here are some things that would, on average, cost a 30-year-old man 1 microlife:

• Smoking 2 cigarettes
• Drinking 7 units of alcohol (eg 2 pints of strong beer)
• Each day of being 5 Kg overweight


There is a simple relationship between change in life expectancy and microlives per day. Consider a person
aged around 30 with a life expectancy of 50 years, or 18,000 days. Then a daily behavior or status that leads
them to lose a year of life expectancy (17,500 microlives) means they are using up around one microlife every
day of their lives.

Microlives encourage the metaphor that people go through their lives at different speeds according to their
lifestyle. For example, someone who smokes 20 a day is using up around 10 microlives, which could be
loosely interpreted as their rushing towards their death at around 29 hours a day instead of 24. This idea of
premature ageing has been found to be an effective metaphor in encouraging behavior change.

We will create an controlled wiki of risk using the Cox proportional hazards models methodology.
Proportional
                                                                             hazards
Proportional hazards models are a class of survival models in statistics.
Survival models relate the time that passes before some event occurs to
                                                                               model
one or more covariates that may be associated with that quantity.

In a proportional hazards model, the unique effect of a unit increase in a
covariate is multiplicative with respect to the hazard rate. For example,
taking a drug may halve one's hazard rate for a stroke occurring, or,
changing the material from which a manufactured component is constructed
may double its hazard rate for failure.

Other types of survival models such as accelerated failure time models do
not exhibit proportional hazards. These models could describe a situation
such as a drug that reduces a subject's immediate risk of having a stroke,
but where there is no reduction in the hazard rate after one year for
subjects who do not have a stroke in the first year of analysis.
