Challenge: data collected by a chatbot
Wefight is developing Vik, an artificial intelligence that supports patients with chronic diseases by answering their questions and offering them various monitoring functionalities throughout their care journey. Through these various services, Wefight is required to collect and process a significant amount of personal and sensitive health data. Respecting the privacy of this data and the regulations in force is one of the major challenges associated with the processing and analysis of this data.
Avatar: Octopize's software that unleashes the potential of data
That's where Octopize comes in. Octopize has developed software for anonymizing personal data: avatar. This software, whose compliance has been certified by the CNIL, makes it possible to share and analyze data while protecting the privacy of the individuals at their origin. Thanks to Octopize's unique technology, Wefight can now unleash the potential of its sensitive data by generating synthetic and anonymous data, thus maintaining their integrity and patient privacy. Octopize deployed the avatar software solution at Wefight and provided comprehensive training to their teams internally.
Ethical management of health data
This collaboration marks a crucial step in the field of health data management! Octopize and Wefight are committed to advancing health research while ensuring patient privacy. Together, they pave the way for ethical management of health data and significant improvements in health care for all.

About Octopize
Proven privacy, unlocked data.
The ambition of Octopize, a deeptech startup, is to become the European leader in the anonymization of personal data thanks to its patented method: avatar. Marketed since 2019 in the form of software and a service, the avatar method was successfully assessed by the CNIL in 2020, encouraged by a fundraising of €1.5 million in 2021 and rewarded by the Prime Minister during the I-nov 2022 competition with new funding of €0.5 million. After the law, investors and the State, the scientific community in turn validated our avatar method in 2023, in the journal Nature Digital Medicine. Recognized for several years in the sensitive health sector (CHU, research institutes, Big Pharma, Medtech), Octopize is now accelerating its growth in telecommunications, insurance, automotive and banking.
