Lifeforce was founded in Santa Monica, CA, by leaders in medicine, technology, science, entertainment, sport, and business, all united by a mission to improve the quality of midlife for ourselves and the people close to us. These chapters should be life at its best, with passions to pursue, goals to achieve, people to support, and places to explore. Yet, we’ve all struggled to find a single solution to understand how our bodies are changing, and get everything we need to keep feeling and performing at our best. We believe taking control of your life starts with taking control of your health, which is why we designed the first comprehensive proactive health program combining diagnostics, doctors, coaches, and science-backed therapies. You live your life. We manage your longevity.

Zippin is the leading expert in automating physical spaces through AI and computer vision. Our checkout-free technology powers more stores in sports and entertainment than all other providers combined. Premier events such as the Super Bowl, FIFA World Cup, NBA and MLB All-Star Games, and Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour have taken place at Zippin-powered sports venues. Zippin is consistently first to market with new checkout-free concepts such as Zippin Walk-Up, Zippin Lane, and Zippin Walk-Up Outdoor. We have the most flexible platform available, supporting multiple payment gateways, campus cards, mobile wallets, loyalty programs, and more. Our API framework lets retailers and partners extend our platform’s capabilities with unique experiences like self-serve draft beer. We help retailers reimagine their shopper experience by removing the friction of in-store shopping. We eliminate the checkout to give shoppers their time back and help retailers run their stores more efficiently with less demand for labor resources. Zippin is NOT self-checkout. Shoppers simply enter the store by swiping or tapping a credit card, take what they want, and zip out*. There’s no line, no kiosk, and no mobile app required. We are regularly recognized for our contributions, nominated in 2023 by Sports Business Journal for Venue Operations Tech of the Year and Tech Executive of the Year, recognized as an IDC Innovator for Computer Vision Automated Checkout, and winning SBJ’s 2022 Best Innovation award.
