Our mission has two parts

We're on a mission to lift the weight of ME/CFS and Long Covid. That comes down to two things.

1

Be the best programme out there

We'll be honest: there are other programmes like Freeme out there. We're biased, but we don't think they're as good. Freeme gives you all the knowledge, and then the tools to put it into practice. None of it is about managing your condition - the only thing we're interested in is you actually improving and no longer needing Freeme. Everything has to be simple and easy to use, because these approaches need to be accessible.

We've also built Isla, the world's first mind-body-trained AI chatbot. We weren't expecting the reaction we got. The vast majority of our reviews now mention Isla. She's the star of the app, and for good reason: she's available 24/7 and offers advice on how to actually apply everything. Many people report real improvements in their symptoms thanks to their conversations with her. Most start out sceptical and end up huge fans.

Be the best value programme out there

We'll always offer the full, core Freeme app at a fair price. People with ME/CFS and Long Covid often can't work, so it matters to us that we always do this.
