Elly is a Silicon Valley based tech startup created to help patients living with a chronic disease. It is an audio companion app designed to motivate patients by discussing their condition and leaving them with an inspirational message to conquer the day. 

A custom typeface was created for Elly and a smile shape icon used as a secondary brand element. A light and bright palette was created for funding and brand templates to give Elly a distinctive brand in the digital healthcare space. The brand is growing fast and has received funding from Google and Morgan Stanley.
