Livongo overview

Livongo is a consumer digital health company that aids people with chronic conditions. Launched in 2014, it has developed a completely new approach for diabetes management that combines the latest IoT technology - such as connected weighscales and blood pressure monitors - with personalised coaching.

Using a large team of data scientists, Livongo aggregate and interpret substantial amounts of health data and information to create actionable, personalised, and timely insights and nudges delivered to its members to help them stay healthier. By offering the right information, tools, and support, at the right time, it aims to provide members with support to make diabetes management easier. Its approach is leading to better financial and clinical outcomes while also creating a better experience for people with diabetes and their care team of family, friends, and medical professionals.

In 2019, Livongo announced that it was integrating wearables into its service, so that users could connect their smartwatches to the Livongo app and receive real-time information. Around the same time, the digital health startup filed to go public in an offering that could see them raise up to $200m in its public debut, valuing the company at more than $2b.

In August 2020 Teladoc, a global virtual care company, and Livongo, announced a definitive merger agreement. The two companies will combine to create solutions for the whole health ecosystem, and the transaction is expected to close at the end of Q4 2020, and upon closure, Teladoc shareholders will own 58% of the company.
