What does the BioBase app do?
BioBase tracks your heart rate, activity, sleep, mood & cognitive function. When wearing the BioBeam, your health data will be monitored in real-time to provide you with a live Wellbeing Score!
Over time, BioBase learns how your behaviours, interactions and environments impact your mental wellbeing. Then to help you cope with stress, anxiety, depression and more, BioBase offers digital coaching courses that incorporate proven techniques, such as CBT.

What is a BioBeam?
The BioBeam is a wrist-worn wearable that tracks your heart rate and heart rate variability, sleep and activity. The BioBeam should be worn during the day and when you sleep, it’s also waterproof!
Here are some tips for wearing your band:
- Wear the band on your non-dominant wrist.
- Ensure you have the touch key nearest to your thumb to make sure you can read the screen.
- Wear your BioBeam at least 2cm from your wrist.
- Your BioBeam should be worn as snug as possible without leaving a mark on your wrist.

Who can see my data?
BioBeats takes data security very seriously. We know it is important for you to know how your data is collected, used and processed.
To be crystal clear:
- You are in control of your data.
Your employer will never have access to your personal data.
To change wellbeing in the workplace, BioBeats believes that the pressure should not be exclusively on you to become more resilient when faced with stress. The responsibility should also be placed on your employer to create suitable work environments for you to work at your best.
It is for this reason that relevant data from the BioBase and BioBeats is aggregated (collected together) into anonymous (no names, email addresses or identifiable information) groups of at least 50 individuals and reported to select members of the project team working with BioBeats in order to inform wellbeing policies and procedures.
BioBeats also works closely with scientific health practitioners and universities. The aggregated and anonymised data collected informs ongoing health and mental wellbeing scientific studies.
