Ventures

Every playful experience we create is designed with scalability in mind, because we want to spread happiness exponentially. We call them Happiness Rockets (‘ventures’) and fuel them with incredible amounts of love. Even long after lift-off.
We create experiences for different domains, but always with a focus on improving quality of life and happiness.

We are constantly researching, experimenting, and validating new solutions to complex societal challenges. We’re never working on these alone: we always take a partner (or two) in hand. Our partner(s) approaches us with a challenge, which we then face together in a playful working process, to work towards a playful solution. Not everything we create will immediately be ready to become a venture. Sometimes, it’s not the right time, or we haven’t found the right market yet. That doesn’t mean we haven’t learned worthwhile insights though… On the contrary! We take these lessons with us, carefully put under our arms, in all our future activities.

Whappbot: Our own platform for sympathetic conversations

Games for Health has developed the Whappbot platform, which we use to get in touch with users in a casual, empathetic way. Carefully designed conversations lead to higher engagement and higher quality answers than traditional surveys (source). Whappbot was developed with a strong ‘privacy by design’ foundation and enables us to build prototypes quickly, as well as utilize the platform in scalable solutions. Whappbot is already in use of many of our products, including Post-ICU and Budiyu.

Other Whappbot based solutions are:

  • Survey: a research tool for all kinds of topics
  • Discomfort meter: visualizes the burden of a disease
  • Mood meter: measures people’s feelings and happiness
  • PREM: measures patient experience
  • PROM: measures patient outcomes
  • InterviewR: asynchronous video interviews
  • CSAT: measures customer satisfaction
  • ESS: measures employee satisfaction
  • ROM Survey: routine outcome monitoring, the effective way
