OpenUp is a European well-being platform that gives employees direct, unlimited and anonymous access to psychologists, lifestyle and financial experts, alongside group sessions and self-guided content, in 40+ languages. It brings 360° well-being together in one place: mental, physical, financial and more.
OpenUp is designed for everyday support, so people can get help early, not just when problems become serious. As a result, many more employees use it, up to five to ten times more than with a standard Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
Our story
We believe in a world where well-being is accessible to all. Easy, affordable and direct. We also believe well-being has many dimensions, which is why our vision isan approach that brings the emotional, social and physical together, with effective and preventative support in one place.
Gijs Coppens, a licensed healthcare psychologist, founded OpenUp in 2020. OpenUp was built by psychologists, so care sits at the centre of every decision, and our approach is evidence-based.
Today OpenUp is active across Europe, with offices in Amsterdam and Berlin, and our 40+ languages reach employees in more than 80 countries, each in their own language.

Who is it for?
We support organisations of every kind, from scale-ups to global enterprises, with focused programmes for software and IT, healthcare, retail, professional services, construction and education. OpenUp adds a preventative step that catches issues early, so everyday stress is managed before it gets worse. Early support is especially important where pressure and burnout are common. When people get help sooner, they are less likely to need time off later.
OpenUp works for any size company. Smaller teams without a big HR department can set it up quickly and start using expert support right away. Larger organisations get a partner that adapts to their needs, builds solutions that fit their way of working, and supports every location in the right language.
No matter where you start, the goal is to give people early support they will actually use.
Everything runs through MyOpenUp, our web platform and in the app (iOS and Android).
