As smartphones become increasingly central to everyday life, concerns about their impact on mental health, wellbeing, and daily habits continue to grow. While technology has made communication, entertainment, and information more accessible than ever, many digital products are designed to maximise engagement, often encouraging users to spend more time scrolling, tapping, and consuming content. Paris based wellness venture studio Rocapine believes technology can be designed differently. The company is building a portfolio of digital products focused on improving wellbeing rather than capturing attention, and it has now secured significant funding to accelerate its mission.
Rocapine has raised $13 million in a Series A funding round led by Educapital, with participation from Daphni, Ring Capital, Centre Court Capital, Athletico Ventures, and Better Angle.
The round also attracted support from a number of founders and operators across the health, consumer technology, and gaming sectors, reflecting growing investor interest in digital wellbeing solutions.
The funding will help Rocapine expand its portfolio of wellness applications and strengthen the technology infrastructure supporting its products.
A New Vision for Consumer Technology
Founded in late 2024 by Stanislas Marchand alongside Jean Gabriel Boinot Tramoni and Sammy Teillet, Rocapine was created with a mission to rethink how consumer applications are built.
The founders believe many digital products have become increasingly focused on engagement metrics rather than meaningful user outcomes.
As smartphones occupy a growing share of people’s daily lives, concerns about digital dependency, distraction, and unhealthy behavioural patterns have intensified.
Rocapine’s approach is based on the idea that technology should help people build healthier routines and improve their quality of life rather than simply increasing screen time.
The company describes its philosophy as creating products that support users instead of encouraging compulsive behaviour.
Building Products Around Wellbeing
Rather than operating as a traditional startup focused on a single application, Rocapine functions as a wellness venture studio.
This model allows the company to identify emerging wellbeing challenges and rapidly develop digital products designed to address them.
Its applications are built around the principle of delivering tangible benefits that become integrated into users’ daily routines.
The goal is to create long term value through healthier habits, improved self awareness, and positive behavioural change.
By focusing on outcomes rather than engagement, the company aims to establish a new category of consumer wellness technology.
Growing Portfolio of Wellness Apps
Rocapine has already launched several applications addressing different aspects of personal wellbeing.
Among them is Harmony, a platform focused on women’s health and cycle tracking.
The company has also introduced That Girl, an application designed to help users develop healthier routines and improve consistency in their daily habits.
Another product, Unchaind, focuses on helping individuals overcome compulsive behaviours and build more balanced lifestyles.
Together, these applications represent the company’s broader ambition to create a portfolio of products supporting physical, mental, and behavioural wellbeing.
Each product is designed around practical utility and measurable benefits rather than entertainment or prolonged engagement.
Combining Wellness and Technology
A significant part of Rocapine’s strategy involves leveraging data, artificial intelligence, and rapid product experimentation.
The company uses a venture studio model that enables it to test multiple concepts simultaneously and identify products with strong market potential.
This approach allows Rocapine to move quickly while gathering insights into user needs and behavioural patterns.
Artificial intelligence also plays an important role in helping the company personalise experiences, improve recommendations, and optimise product effectiveness.
The founders believe technology can become a powerful force for positive behavioural change when designed with user wellbeing as the primary objective.
Scaling the Next Generation of Wellness Products
The newly secured funding will support Rocapine’s next stage of growth.
The company plans to expand its portfolio, strengthen its artificial intelligence and data capabilities, and scale the infrastructure that supports product development and marketing.
A key objective is increasing the pace of experimentation, with plans to test hundreds of application concepts as it searches for future category leaders.
As conversations around digital wellbeing continue to gain momentum, Rocapine is positioning itself at the intersection of technology, health, and behavioural science. By building products designed to improve daily life rather than maximise attention, the company hopes to demonstrate that consumer technology can create lasting value while supporting healthier and more balanced lifestyles.
