Company profile

researched Sep 2026

Holisticly operates a corporate wellness benefits and perks marketplace that lets employers fund a monthly wellbeing stipend which employees can spend across a curated catalog of more than 300 options. Categories span in-person studios and gyms, livestream and on-demand workouts, meditation and mindfulness apps, financial wellness tools, home-delivered healthy food and audiobooks, with named partners including ClassPass, Calm, Audible and Daily Harvest.

The platform handles the administrative workflow of running such a program: employee eligibility syncing via HRIS integrations, automated transactions without reimbursement claims, program communication resources, monthly reporting for People and Finance teams, and implementation and employee support. The company states the model saves HR teams up to 8+ hours per week and cites employee engagement rates above 80%. Earlier positioning also included Virtual Team Experiences — expert-led team workouts and mental health and financial wellness workshops — as a group engagement offering, and framed the product around remote-first and in-person companies planning their return to work after the COVID-19 pandemic.

Holisticly, Inc is incorporated as a C-corp and is listed as being at the product-in-market stage with four employees.
