Workplace wellbeing · UK

A daily practice that earns its keep.

Hum is a short, evidence-backed daily practice for employees — and honest, anonymised wellbeing data for employers. Three minutes a day. No overclaiming.

A wellbeing tool, not a medical device. It supports — never replaces — clinical care.

Why this matters

Mental health is the quiet cost in every workforce

The need is large, and mostly unmet. These are the figures that make the case — used honestly.

How it works

Three minutes, once a day

A small, repeatable loop — designed to help, then let you get on with your day.

1

A quiet check-in

One question, thirty seconds. How are you, today — from difficult to strong. Private to you.

2

One small practice

A single, evidence-backed exercise, matched to how you're feeling. Breathe, notice, do, reframe, or connect.

3

A calm finish

No streaks, no badges, no noise. Small things, repeated. See you tomorrow.

Built on evidence

Honest about what helps — and what doesn't

The restraint is the point. A clinical advisor should be able to read every claim and nod.

Every practice cites its research

Each exercise is rooted in clinical or positive psychology, with the evidence shown plainly — including where it's only promising.

Measurement, not assertion

Wellbeing is tracked over time with WHO-5, a validated, public-domain index — so progress is measured, not claimed.

Stays in its lane

Not therapy, not a diagnosis, not a screening tool. It supports clinical care and points to real help when it's needed.

One layer, not a cure

An app can't fix a difficult workplace. Hum is a daily support that sits alongside the changes only employers can make.

For employers

Board-grade insight, without watching anyone

You see how your workforce is doing in the round — never an individual. Prevention-first, which is where the evidence says the return is highest.

  • Anonymised, aggregate trends only — never a name, score, or note
  • A minimum group size of ten, enforced in the architecture
  • Response rates shown beside every figure, so nothing is over-read
  • Aligned to the UK's Keep Britain Working direction

No individual is ever identifiable. Groups under ten are hidden.

Trust, built into the architecture

The data that helps an employee stays the employee's. The honesty of the whole product depends on it.

What employers see
Anonymous, grouped trends and engagement — for ten people or more.
What they never see
Your name, your scores, your notes, or anything you do in the app.
