Gaining Momentum

KiActiv is a verified UK-based digital health company with significant traction, currently deployed in 13 NHS ICS regions to support long-term condition management and rehabilitation. Despite the high real-world utility and established market presence, the submission quality was poor (containing placeholder names like 'StarFang' and exaggerated claims like 'most people'). The score reflects the project's genuine medical value and B2G traction, heavily penalized by the lack of professional detail in the input form.
