Within is a revolutionary way for the millions of people who suffer from eating disorders to receive clinically-superior continuous care attuned to their needs.
By launching a comprehensive online treatment platform, US-based team Within Health has revolutionised how millions of people can receive clinical care for eating disorders. While beinginvolved in the platform for quality assurance since 2021, WebDepend worked alongside US-based design studio NoNameYet to comprehensively test new features that Within required to expand anddeliver their virtual treatment and therapy.
Founded in 2021, Within launched an innovative new virtual platform to provide treatment, therapy,and support to help people of all ages overcome eating disorders. While based in Miami, FL, Withinemploys a licensed care team of 85 people covering 37 states alongside a team of specialist advisors.
Designed and created by the NoNameYet team, Within covers a streamlined web and app-basedvirtual treatment experience. Combined, they allow patients to attend therapy sessions, connect andcheck in with their care team across multiple touchpoints, submit vital statistics, and have access tothe tools and support they need for recovery.
Having worked with NoNameYet on previous projects, WebDepend joined the Within project in 2021for ongoing quality assurance, alongside cross-platform testing for the app and platform integrationwith smart health devices.
While NoNameYet’s input to the Within project encompassed branding, logo design, and productstrategy, it also covered the UI, UX, technology, and connectivity requirements to provide a stable,reliable, and secure virtual treatment experience while empowering those using it.
With virtual therapy gaining popularity since the pandemic, an exceptional user experience is vitalright across the platform. As Within has rapidly grown in a short time, our challenge was to ensurecomplete testing of all the new features.
This testing would ensure the Within team could efficiently deliver the required treatment whilepatients could use the mobile app effectively and intuitively to receive and engage with the care team.
With a user-centric approach, we prioritised testing to accommodate Within’s needs from theperspective of the patients, as well as the clinical and management teams, in expanding anddelivering their virtual treatment.
Our comprehensive testing covered every aspect of the Within platform, encompassing the mainwebsite, the web app, and the mobile app, for functionality across standard web browsers anddevices, guaranteeing a smooth user experience and optimal functionality.
The testing scope was also extended to smart health devices to ensure integration with the Withinplatform and provide vital health statistics for patients on a daily basis.
The collaboration between WebDepend and NoNameYet has not only contributed to the platform'sgrowth but, more importantly, has positively impacted the lives of people seeking treatment for eatingdisorders through an effective virtual healthcare platform.
With the platform's help, Within’s good work is reflected in their post-treatment statistics. Animpressive 86% of patients reported an improvement in their quality of life, with an equivalentpercentage experiencing a reduction in eating disorder symptoms.
This outcome underscores the success of Within and highlights the importance of a reliable andthoroughly tested virtual platform in achieving positive health outcomes. As Within continues to makestrides in delivering quality care to people, WebDepend continues to partner with NoNameYet tosupport the platform's reliability, functionality, and user experience.
