The workplace well-being landscape, particularly for menstruating individuals, just got a boost. Essence App, a platform optimizing performance and health according to the menstrual cycle, has closed a $600K seed funding round.
The company's mission is to close the well-being gender gap in the workplace, aiming to lower burnout and churn rates for menstruating people. Essence App provides tools for individuals to understand cycle impacts on mental and physical health, and educates companies to improve workplace climate and promote menstrual well-being. It also continues to research the relationship between productivity and the menstrual cycle.
