There are four men to every woman in the tech industry⁵
Men’s size fits all
From crash-test dummies to bullet proof vests (and even life saving drugs), too many of the things women rely on have been designed by and for men. And tech aimed at women is no different, often pandering to stereotypical or short-sighted ideas about what women actually want, rather than the insight-led, cutting edge tech they truly deserve. Until now.
Female-founded. Female-grounded.
Elvie is one of the original FemTech companies. Founded by Tania Boler, an internationally recognized women’s health expert, we've spent over 10 years developing cutting-edge tech and breaking societal taboos in order to level up women's lives.
"We need tech that finally puts women’s needs first. Afterall, why should we have to make do with shoddy design or pink spin-offs when there are self-driving cars in the world?”
Default female thinking
We place women at the heart of our design and engineering process. From conception to development, from testing to production, women are key to every step. By doing so, we are creating a parallel healthcare industry that is unashamedly female-first, with a stubborn focus on women's unique needs based on research and innovation, not assumption.
Respect women deserve
Ultimately, leveling up women's bodies and lives is about respect. For too long, we've been disrespected by dumb technology, under-researched healthcare, societal judgement and discriminatory government policy. We want to turn all that on its head to give women the means to prosper, succeed and lead like never before.
Respect without judgement
Although our core mission is to empower women, we believe that anybody who can use our products should feel empowered to use them, whether they identify as women or not.
