HOW IT WORKS

01

SIGN UP

Sign up here with your email address and we will send you all the details and instructions you need. We are working hard to get employers and insurers to pay you to quit. If yours are not onboard yet, you and your loved ones can fund your own quitting plan to motivate you to get over that hurdle

02

SET UP

After you sign up, we will send you a Quit Pack, with everything you need: a pocket-sized device to easily help you confirm your daily smoking status, instructions to download and setup our app, nicotine gums and other quit support products you may be eligible for.

03

EARN

You can earn back what you pay us by blowing into the device everyday and proving you are smoking less. Our smart software paired with your unique breathalyzer device will show you what you're earning. We are putting the latest behavioral science tools to practice to help you quit.

About Us

OUR STORY

All of us at Vincere came together over a common goal: to put our many years of professional expertise and skills towards making people's lives better.

We bonded at the Harvard Innovation Lab over our shared passion to beat tobacco smoking. It boggled our minds that this was still the number one cause of preventable death in the world. We pledged to empower people to overcome smoking with the best tools at our disposal: technology, behavioral science and economics.

OUR VISION

We want to financially incentivize people, at massive scale, to make healthy choices, across all modes of chronic disease management, using wearables and connected health monitoring devices and the best, proven research in behavioral science.

TECHNOLOGY

We are razor focussed on user experience and interface design because we want to make our technology accessible to everyone. We have developed a versatile platform to connect wearables and health monitoring devices seamlessly and securely to payment systems to marry positive behaviors to instant rewards. We are using the latest facial recognition technology and security tools to maximize convenience to users and program operators.
