Kumanu

Kumanu, founded by Dr. Vic Strecher in 2015 as JOOL Health and rebranded in 2019, is the leading purpose-driven workforce wellbeing company. Our Purposeful platform integrates AI, behavioral science, and personal, social, and organizational determinants of health to deliver personalized, whole-person wellbeing solutions. Our team of experts has shaped the employee wellbeing industry and now reaches over 700,000 lives through our client organizations.

Built on over 30 years of research in health behavior change and informed by more than $50 million in R&D funding through Dr. Strecher’s Center for Health Communications Research at the University of Michigan, Kumanu’s platform represents the cutting edge in digital wellbeing. Dr. Strecher’s earlier company, HealthMedia, pioneered digital health coaching and was acquired by J&J in 2008, laying the foundation for Kumanu’s innovative offerings.

Our platform fosters meaningful, lasting behavior change by connecting individuals to their core purpose and addressing key health determinants. Kumanu’s solutions are HITRUST certified, ensuring the highest standards of data security and privacy.

Headquartered in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Kumanu is dedicated to driving measurable outcomes in employee wellbeing, including reduced turnover, improved mental health, and enhanced engagement. We help organizations cultivate a healthier, more resilient workforce through purpose-centered wellbeing.
