Meet our founders

Alike was founded by a unique combination of deeply experienced leaders. The company is the result of a cybersecurity pioneer -- Amnon Bar-Lev, a physician -- Prof. Varda Shalev, and a Data Scientist -- Ohad Zadok, coming together to give patients the ability to gain a fresh understanding of their current treatments, and to change how people use their medical information to improve health across the world.

I gain validation and a sense of belonging.
Interacting with fellow individuals experiencing similar health challenges through the Alikes community has proven invaluable. It provides a supportive space where I can freely ask and answer questions related to my condition.

It's reassuring to know that others are going through similar situations
I find comfort in connecting with individuals who share similar experiences, as we reassure each other before medical procedures and provide insights about various treatments.
Miranda
I could almost always find someone on Alike to chat with.
It has helped me receive help from people with firsthand experiences rather than from a healthcare provider who has a hard time understanding me.
Kayla Lockhart
Great place to ask questions and talk about your struggles.
I have been a member of Alike for 9 months now, it's my favorite app for chronic illness and disability. It's completely free and is full of people who are going through similar things as you. It's a great place to ask questions and talk.

Alike is the best online peer support there is.
Personally, I have been through 4 in person peer support programs, and none of them have lasted or been as helpful and effective as Alike. I am proud to be an advocate. I can help so many people!

We can create a more compassionate world.
It's incredibly empowering to stand tall and say, "This is me, and I won't hide anymore." I've discovered the importance of surrounding myself with people who love and support me.
Emma Maxwell
I want to share my personal journey in my own voice.
I hope my story resonates with others facing their own journeys, reminding them that they are not alone in their struggles and that a life filled with hope and resilience is possible

Engaging with others who share similar experiences is essential.
Connecting with individuals who understand what we're going through helps alleviate that loneliness and provides a supportive community where we can find solace.

What is Alike and what can I do with it?

Alike is a free social health space (app available for both Android and iOS). Users are verified by their provider but remain anonymous — allowing a safe environment with accurate and up-to-date data to increase knowledge and understanding of various conditions. We then match you with people like you from a clinical perspective, so people who are Alike can exchange ideas, empower one another or get emotional relief, and seek better care. We take a holistic approach and take into account all of your conditions, treatments, age, gender, and much more.

What do I need to get started?

All you need is the username and password for your healthcare providers. Then download the Alike app from the App store and follow the easy to follow instructions in the app and start comparing your way to better health.

How does Alike get access to my medical records?

Alike allows you to automatically create your health profile through a direct connection with your health provider. You will be asked to authenticate with your patient login information. Your device will use a secure token that will be used to receive your conditions, your regular medications, your procedures and your lab tests. Alike and your device do not store your patient login information. Every Alike user is verified by their healthcare provider, this way we can be sure you are a real person with real medical records. This allows us to create a safe and secure environment.

What happens after I connect my medical provider?

We will populate your profile at Alike with the information received from your provider about your conditions, medications, procedures and lab tests and we will match you with a group of people who are clinically similar to you.

How much does it cost?

The Alike app is free :)
