SCIENCE & EVIDENCE
Real People.
Real Data.
Real Impact.
OwnLife combines behavioural science, cognitive analytics and the largest real-world data set of its kind to measure, understand and improve knowledge worker capacity.
THE DATA
Human performance can be measured, improved and sustained
OwnLife applies scientific rigour to a fundamentally human question: why do equally capable people perform so differently week in, week out?
Our research, data and methodology give organisations and individuals the insight and tools to unlock more of what's possible.
300,000+
cognitive performance measurements
10 million+
data points on underlying factors
10,000+
individuals assessed
7 years+
real-world data
OUR FOUNDATION
A multidisciplinary approach.
We draw on established science from cognitive neuroscience, behavioural psychology and performance analytics, combined with real-world data to create practical insights that drive meaningful and sustainable change.
Cognitive Science
Seven years of research into the exact optimisations that unlock peak cognitive function in real-world knowledge worker environments.
Behavioural Science
Built from thousands of hours of 1-to-1 coaching, we leverage psychology and physiological adaptation to create change that sticks.
Real-world Data
Analysing data from individuals, teams and organisations to identify specific patterns, benchmarks and opportunities for improvement.
WHAT WE MEASURE
We measure cognitive performance in the workplace across four well established cognitive domains
Together these components determine how close to capacity people are operating - their Performance Realisation Score.

OUR PROPRIETARY ASSET
Performance Intelligence
We translate complex data into clear, actionable insights. Our proprietary assessments and benchmarking tools help identify what's getting in the way of performance and where to focus for the greatest impact.
Evidence-based assessments
Benchmarking against real-world data
Personalised insights and recommendations
Practical tools to drive change
THE EVIDENCE
The Evidence is Clear
Teams that live better perform better.
Across every industry, region and function.
Your team shapes how you live and work, and that shapes how well you perform. Across teams of 50 or more, our Performance Realisation Score shows a clear, significant link between how a team sleeps, eats, drinks and exercises and how much of its capability turns up at work.
How sure are we?
The link is highly statistically significant: the odds of a pattern this strong arising by chance are under 1 in 1,000.
THE EFFICACY
Proven to make a difference.
Our work is backed by robust research and real-world results across individuals, teams and organisations.
