Overview

Mighty Health operates an all-in-one daily health program designed for adults aged 50 and up, providing joint-friendly workouts, chronic condition–specific programs, custom nutrition plans, and 1-on-1 health coaching. The app offers more than 250 low-impact workouts, personalized grocery lists and recipes, guidance on topics such as sleep and arthritis, live virtual events, and certified coaches who text with members near-daily. Founded in 2019 by James Li, Felipe Lopes, and Dr. Bernard Chang, the company has supported more than 200,000 individuals to date and is available as a free benefit through Medicare Advantage and commercial health plans covering over 9 million lives via partnerships. Mighty Health is available direct-to-consumer and through partners including Gympass and Forma. The company emphasizes holistic health guidance and human accountability beyond traditional fitness supplemental benefits. With the new financing, Mighty Health plans to rapidly expand its partnership footprint and launch multiple in-depth chronic disease programs and additional offerings. Mighty Health offers a nutrition and fitness wellness app specifically designed for older adults, with live coaching, pre-recorded workouts tailored to joint-friendly movement, and content on preventative care. The product surfaces three to five daily tasks across nutrition, exercise, and workouts and includes family-facing celebrations so relatives can track progress. Coaching is primarily text-message based (about 90% of interactions) with additional phone calls; nutrition coaching focuses on ingredients rather than prescriptive recipes to respect cultural differences. The company charges a $20/month membership after a free seven-day trial and is in discussions with health insurers to offer the app as a benefit. Mighty Health is a Y Combinator graduate; co-founders include CEO James Li, Dr. Bernard Chang, and CTO Felipe Lopes. With new funding the startup has hired engineers and a designer to build fitness-tracker integrations and expand content.
