The problem
Wellbeing apps live on phones. Your people live in Slack.
They spend the day in chat, meetings and AI tools. The wellbeing app you pay for sits on page three of their phone. And more of them are losing weight than ever, some on GLP-1s, often without the protein or strength work that keeps muscle on.
1 in 3
UK employees don't use the health benefits their employer already pays for.1
1.6m
adults in Great Britain used weight-loss drugs in the past year, and 3.3 million more want to.2
40%
Up to 40% of the weight lost on GLP-1s can be lean mass: muscle, organ and connective tissue. About a quarter in meta-analyses.3–5
And musculoskeletal problems, like back, neck and joint pain, cause 14.6% of UK sickness absence: the third most common reason.6

How it works
One message. Ten seconds.
Add PAL once
We set PAL up in your Slack or Teams workspace. People can also connect it to the AI assistant they already use.
They message it like a colleague
Type it, say it or snap it. PAL looks up every item in real food data and shows where each number came from.
Small nudges, all day
A walk between meetings, one set of press-ups before 3pm, a one-tap check-in. Never more than ten seconds.

Muscle protection
Losing weight? PAL helps them keep the muscle.
Muscle keeps people strong, upright and full of energy at work, and weight loss can cost it. PAL isn't after more workouts. It nudges the minimum that protects muscle:
- Protein at every meal, and enough food overall
- Two short strength sessions a week, found in their calendar
- One-minute sets between meetings for posture and everyday endurance
THE SCIENCE
LeanShield™, our patent-pending muscle-protection score, was built in scientific collaboration with Professor Nick Wareham, Director of the Cambridge Institute of Metabolic Science. A randomised controlled trial is in design with his team at the University of Cambridge.
We'd rather prove it than claim it. That's what the trial is for.

Real food data
Not a chatbot's guess. Real food data.
General AI chatbots guess the numbers. PAL uses AI to understand what people say, then looks every item up in food databases and shows the source. Anything estimated is labelled as an estimate.

Private by design
Their answers stay theirs.
People only use a health tool at work if they trust it. So employers get team totals, never individuals, and anything sensitive goes through private forms rather than chat history.
Opt-inPeople choose to use PAL. Their account is theirs.
Team totals onlyNo individual reports, and minimum group sizes.
Private answersCheck-ins and health details stay out of work chat history.
Never soldWe don't sell data. UK GDPR, encrypted in transit.

Founding pilots
Start with one team.
We set PAL up for one team, in the tools they already use. After 30 days you see the team totals: how many people used it, how often, and what moved. Then you decide.
Set up for youWe install PAL and walk your team through it.
Your numbersA team-totals report at 30 days. Never individuals.
A say in what's nextFounding teams shape the features we build.
Why a pilot? Because the only wellbeing number that matters is whether people use it. You should see yours before you commit.

Questions
What HR teams ask us
Do people need to download anything?
No. PAL is a direct message in Slack or Teams, or a connector in the AI assistant they already use. The ParrotPal app, live today, is there for anyone who wants it outside work.
What does HR see?
Team totals only, for groups above a minimum size: how many people use PAL, check-in rates, steps and similar trends. Never an individual's food, answers, weight or health details.
Is PAL medical advice?
No. PAL is a wellbeing service, not a medical device, and it doesn't diagnose or treat anything. People on medication, including GLP-1s, should keep following their clinician's advice. Whether someone is on a GLP-1 stays private to them.
Which tools does it work in?
We're rolling PAL out across Slack, Microsoft Teams, Claude, Codex and Grok, plus any AI assistant that supports MCP, through one connector. Pilots are open now.
Where does the food data come from?
UK Government CoFID data, USDA and verified brand data. PAL uses AI to understand what people say, not to invent the numbers, and any estimate is labelled as one.
How is it priced?
Per employee, per month, with founding pricing for pilot teams. We'll walk you through it on the call and size it to your team.
