Hapbee Technologies Inc (TSX-V:HAPB, OTCQB:HAPBF) CEO Yona Shtern has told shareholders that the company is “full steam ahead” in growing its wellness platform.
“Hapbee's platform - for both consumer and enterprise channels - is built upon a recurring revenue model (subscription for consumers and licensing for enterprise). This offers the most attractive value proposition from an investment perspective because of the long-term, predictable and repeatable nature of revenue streams matched with higher revenue multiples typically afforded ARR technology businesses,” Shtern said in a shareholder letter.
Montreal-based Hapbee is a leading wearable wellness technology platform with a mission to help people improve their wellbeing and enhance how they feel. The company is the creator of the Hapbee Neckband, the Sleepbee Sleep Mask, and the Sleepbee Bed Topper, which are all powered by an ultra-low radio frequency energy biostreaming platform that delivers low-power electro-magnetic signals and blends designed to help optimize users' sleep, productivity, recovery, and downtime.

CEO Shtern noted that at the end of 1Q 2022 there were nearly 3,000 active subscribers on the platform, an increase of 246% over 1Q 2021.
Paid subscriber retention after six months increased from 22% in September 2021 to 65% in March 2022, which Shtern said was driven by significant improvements to its in-app experience, expansion of blends, and investment in an automated back-end billing system.
“I like to reiterate that we are a software subscription and licensing company first; hardware second,” Shtern added. “Long story short, the platform is gaining traction and demonstrating stickiness. We continue to invest in improving user engagement and retention and will leverage critical customer feedback to enhance the user experience.”
