The Cost of Doing Nothing

Inactivity Is One of the Costliest Risks on Your Plan.

Physical inactivity builds risk for years before it ever shows up on a claims report, and the cost compounds when nothing changes.

Proven Results

Built on Science. Measured by Outcomes.

Avidon's movement and physical activity program is built on more than 25 years of cognitive behavioral training and measured across 12,000+ participants, not marketing claims.

Why It Works

Most Fitness Plans Fail. This Changes How Employees Think About Movement.

Willpower-based routines collapse under stress and busy schedules. Avidon helps employees understand what keeps them sedentary, interrupt it, and build activity habits that stick.

🧠

Targets the real trigger

Cognitive behavioral training gets underneath the inactivity habit to the beliefs and barriers driving it, so employees address the cause, not just the calendar.

🎯

Meets every employee where they are

Most of your workforce isn't ready to change today. The program engages people at every stage of change, including the majority who are only starting to consider it.

Common Questions

Movement & Physical Activity Programs for Employers, Answered.

How much does a movement program cost per employee?

Avidon is priced as an enterprise-level platform at small-business rates. Business plans start at $35/month for the full wellness platform, not just movement, so you get every behavior-change topic in one subscription with no hidden implementation fees. See pricing.

How quickly can we launch it?

Minutes, not months. Avidon is a true SaaS platform: getting started is self-serve, so you sign up, configure, invite your team, and most organizations are live the same day, with no implementation calls.

Will employees actually use it?

Adoption is the most common worry, and it's what the methodology is built for. Most of your workforce isn't ready to act yet, so the program engages the roughly 80% in earlier stages of change, not just the ready few. Challenges Autopilot launches a fresh challenge every month automatically, and automated reminders keep members coming back, with no admin work. Engagement compounds, too: in a controlled study of 300 non-incentivized participants, pairing coaching with our technology more than doubled program completion, from 17% to 36%.

How do you measure results and ROI?

Reporting shows enrollment, participation, and progress so you can demonstrate results to leadership. In an Avidon exercise program review of 12,000+ participants, 77% increased their exercise to an acceptable level by their next annual health risk assessment. You can explore the full efficacy & outcomes data here.

Is the program secure and compliant?

Yes. Avidon is HIPAA compliant and certified to ISO 27001 and GDPR standards, so employee health data is protected and your benefits and compliance teams have the documentation they need.

Does it work for remote and shift workers?

Yes. The program is fully digital and available on any device, with content in 14 languages. Remote staff, shift workers, and frontline employees get the same support without needing to be on site or online at a set time.

Does it work for employees with injuries, joint pain, or physical limitations?

Yes. The program emphasizes low-impact options, gradual progression, and beginner-friendly movement, so employees returning from injury or managing joint pain can build activity safely. The focus is consistency and small wins, not intensity, and everything scales to the individual's own limits.

What about employees who are sedentary or intimidated by exercise?

That's exactly who the program is built for. Instead of pushing gym-style workouts, it starts with small, achievable movement, walking, mobility, and short "movement snacks" that fit into a workday, and uses stages-of-change coaching to reach employees who aren't ready to change yet. Momentum comes from small wins, not big overhauls.
