Startups are part of a busy marketplace, and in it there are thousands and thousands of apps that aim to affect behavior change through many different means. The reality is behavior change is very, very complicated and there is no simple solution. EveryMove is an app that unifies all of your fitness activity all in one place, then helps you build that personalized network around you to provide you with recognition and awards for being healthy. Rather than being an app that changes your behavior in an online marketplace crowded with such apps, it integrate with more fitness devices than any other app, to capture and gather information on more than 100 different activities. Plus, unlike many other fitness apps, EveryMove emphasizes social sharing so that friends and family can cheer a user on.

EveryMove is not so much as a fitness tracker as a sort of fitness “collective.” Enabling more than merely mobile use, it features tech support that allows access from any Internet-connected device via either its website or a partnering mobile app. Its main benefit is to let you sync any of your fitness tracking gadgets into one spot. It then enables fitness brands, your boss, and even your health insurance to partner with EveryMove to offer real perks that will keep you working toward improving your health.

EveryMove offers many social incentives. Users can connect to friends who also access the service. They can unlock badges, see where they rank on the leaderboard, and can comment on other people’s activities. Being able to connect with friends and compete in challenges can help keep you motivated, and the app can connect to most wearable trackers. Fortunately, unlike many apps, its complete accessibility by any PC, Mac, or mobile device with an Internet connection means you never need to lose the benefit of these services despite a computer repair need.

EveryMove has obvious benefits for merely personal use, but it also partners with businesses to help employers create a more active, happy, and productive workforce through a social fitness experience in which users track activities and work toward fitness goals together at work, just as they can at home. Companies can choose to incentivize monthly activity with customized or charitable rewards. Companies can also help to foster a sense of camaraderie and friendly competition among co-workers with month-long physical activity challenges. Employers can invent, challenge, and reward physical activity based on data captured from more than 150 wearable devices and fitness apps. EveryMove makes its self-serve platform easy to use.
