Be Part of the Future of Health Research
Whether you're a researcher or participant, Alethios makes health research effortless and impactful.
At Alethios, we believe language shapes science. Alethios is redefining science through language that values participation, transparency, and real-world evidence.
Words don’t just describe science—they define it. In traditional research, the language of “subjects,” “patients,” and “proof” has shaped how we think about evidence: top-down, slow, and gatekept. But health doesn’t only happen in clinics, and discovery doesn’t have to wait for phase III trials.
At Alethios, we’re reframing the language of science to match the new reality of real-world evidence generation: decentralized, participant-driven, and outcomes-based. When we call people participants, we acknowledge their agency. When we talk about evidence generation rather than proof, we respect the iterative nature of knowledge, and the scientific method. And when we say human health instead of pharmaceuticals or alternative medicine or consumer health, we broaden the field from disease management to vitality, function, and well-being - to a measurement of health as it might actually be lived.
“Proof” belongs to logic and law. In science, what matters is evidence—and the process of generating, validating, and refining it.
Alethios exists to lower the barriers to that process. Our platform makes it possible for researchers, clinicians, and health innovators to run real-world studies that are:
When we say “evidence generation,” we mean structured curiosity: designing studies that produce interpretable, reproducible insights, not marketing claims or anecdotes. These studies can range from being evidence situated within the context of a consumer perception or marketing study, to evidence collected for a rigorous, gold standard placebo-controlled trial. What makes the data collected evidence? The degree of structure and controlled applied to way in which the data is collected.
Most people who join Alethios studies aren’t necessarily experiencing an illness; often, they’re simply curious. They want to know how sleep, nutrition, recovery, or supplements affect their well-being. Calling them patients misses the point; it suggests passivity and pathology.
By using participants, we recognize contribution, agency, and partnership. This language matters. It reframes research as something you do with people, not to them. It builds trust, increases engagement, and creates a culture where discovery feels accessible rather than extractive.
Traditional trials are expensive and slow. Real-world evidence can move faster—if done responsibly. The key is balance: speed without shortcuts, access without losing rigor.

A Practical Shift: Rethinking Research Language
Language doesn’t just follow science; it guides it. When we say “evidence generation,” we invite more people to participate. When we say “participants,” we create space for citizen scientists. When we say “human health,” we remind ourselves that biology is personal and contextual—not just clinical.
The future of research depends on accessibility, transparency, and shared ownership of discovery. Changing the words we use is the first step to changing the system.
Alethios is building research infrastructure for real-world evidence. We help teams design clear studies, onboard participants, automate adherence for surveys and wearables, and produce transparent, reproducible outputs you can cite.
Our language reflects our mission:
With Alethios, research becomes a collaboration—fast, affordable, credible, and built on respect for the people who make it possible.
Changing the words we use isn’t semantics—it’s system change. Language determines who feels included, who gets to contribute, and how results are understood.
Alethios believes the future of evidence is human. It’s not about proving theories in isolation—it’s about generating insight together.
