Introducing Ella, Your Lyme+ Health Companion

Introducing Ella, the first AI companion built for Lyme+ patients, designed to unlock a standard of care for these conditions.

Every year, 31 million Americans are bitten by ticks. Roughly half a million will develop Lyme or another tick-borne disease (Lyme+).

The search for a diagnosis can take years. Finding one should be the finish line. For Lyme+ patients, it’s only the starting point.

What follows is a maze. Every provider, test, and treatment is a bet of time, money, and hope, navigated alone. Sick. Exhausted. Working a full-time job no one applied for.

That ends today.

Introducing LymeLess, and Ella, your Lyme+ Health Companion.

Built by patients. Powered by the intelligence of the Lyme+ community.

Ella turns the day-to-day uncertainty of Lyme+ into a clear path forward.

Track. Your entire story in one place, in minutes. Pill bottles, labs, biometrics.

Learn. What’s working, what’s triggering flares, and how it ties into the latest research.

Act. Your next move, made with your full story in view, so your time and money go where they actually help.

At LymeLess, we believe that no single doctor or textbook holds all the answers. The patients living it do. Every story tracked joins the first real-world dataset built by the Lyme+ community, guiding the decisions patients face today and shaping the answers researchers uncover tomorrow.

Every patient who joins makes the data stronger, the voice louder, and the path clearer for the one behind them. Until what once took years and tens of thousands of dollars is simply where the next patient starts.

LymeLess is live today. Free to try on iOS and Android.

Join us as we revolutionize the way the world treats Lyme+ by learning from the unique story of every patient.

Transcript:

 Millions of people are bit by ticks every year, but unfortunately today, many of those patients are misdiagnosed first and led to develop a much more complex chronic form of the disease to treat. The cost of this misdiagnosis lands on the patients personally, financially, and in years and relationships that nobody gets back.

Our mom went through the same diagnostic saga that so many patients go through, getting misdiagnosed, getting tested, going through all the hoops until she finally figured out that she had Lyme disease. Then Carter and I got sick a few years later.

We saw over 50 doctors before anyone actually started to connect the dots and spent nearly $300,000 out of pocket.

It all came down to luck, ultimately. Our mom happened to bump into someone who was Lyme-literate at my high school graduation that ultimately was able to point her in the right direction. No one should need to get lucky to get answers. This is why Lymeless exists.

We built Lymeless and AI Ella specifically for patients with Lyme disease, co-infections, and all of the other conditions that come with that.

Most Lyme patients are forced to become the advocate, coordinator, and researcher of their own care at the very moment they can least afford it.

It's a huge part of being a Lyme patient because there is no standard of care, so every patient's care journey is personalized to them. Doctors are often trying new treatments every single time you visit them based on how you responded to the last one and how your symptoms have been changing.

And so one really important thing is keeping track of all of this. Ella was designed to carry all of this load. She brings together your labs, your records, your notes from all of your appointments, all of the symptoms and treatments that you're taking, environmental factors that might be at play, and the wearable data that you have.

Ella brings together all of that information to help create insights and recommendations to help guide your next steps, whether that's managing flares day to day or making a decision with your provider on what to do next. One of the most exciting things about this platform is the potential to unlock what we call the community intelligence layer.

What this does is power insights for patients, clinicians, and researchers based on all of the different patients that looked like them. So for patients, this means what remedies can I pursue that worked for patients that are just like me? Or for a clinician, it helps inform how they treat the next patient based on all the patients that came before them.

And in research, it helps inform what drugs or remedies should be trialed in clinical trials. With Lymeless and AI Ella, your personal health information belongs to you. It will never be sold and never shared without your consent. We're a part of this patient community ourselves, and it's important to us to both protect it and to serve it.

We left our careers at Google and on Wall Street to build what we wished existed during our own care. Our mission is to revolutionize the way the world treats Lyme and associated conditions by learning from the unique story of every patient.

Our team is here to bring the tools, resources, and guidance to patients, clinicians, and researchers so that together we can actually build a future where the answers patients are seeking no longer take years and thousands of dollars to reach, but are actually available to them and in their hands the moment they need them.

So join us in revolutionizing the way the world treats Lyme.
