Our Story

Serene was born from a simple observation: despite the abundance of health apps available, most people still struggle to maintain healthy habits. The problem wasn't lack of information—it was lack of personalization and support.

Our founders, Dr. Sarah Chen and Marcus Williams, met at a Stanford health tech conference in 2022. Sarah had spent years researching why people fail to stick to wellness routines, while Marcus had built AI systems that could adapt to individual user behavior.

Together, they envisioned an app that would feel less like a tracking tool and more like a supportive companion—one that understands your unique challenges, celebrates your wins, and gently guides you back when you slip.

Today, Serene helps over 500,000 people across 50+ countries on their wellness journeys. But we're just getting started.
