Introducing Hilo™: A New Chapter in Blood Pressure Health

Since 2004, Aktiia has been a pioneer in continuous blood pressure monitoring. Today, we’re incredibly excited to announce the next step in our journey: Aktiia is becoming Hilo!

Our transition from Aktiia to Hilo reflects our vision to empower you on your journey to better health through effortless blood pressure monitoring. Although we’re now called Hilo, we still deliver the same reliable, clinically-validated insights you can trust. Thanks to the intelligent data and analytics Hilo provides, you’re not just tracking your blood pressure, you’re actively participating in creating a healthier future for yourself, one heartbeat at a time. 

More Than Just a Name Change

This transition is about more than just a new name and look. It’s about solidifying our dedication to you and our mission. Hilo represents our focus on providing a holistic, user-friendly experience that empowers you to understand and manage your blood pressure. For instance, the Hilo Band now monitors your sleep, showing how the quality of your rest is linked to your blood pressure at night. This can help identify trends you might otherwise miss. It also includes a new step counter to show how your daily activity influences your blood pressure. All of this is done automatically, giving you a more complete picture of your health.

Our Commitment to You

As Hilo, we remain committed to providing you with the same ground-breaking technology, enhanced user experience, and expanded resources you’ve come to expect. Our mission remains unchanged: to manage the world’s blood pressure, one person at a time. 

Join the Hilo Movement

We invite you to join us in tackling hypertension head-on through continuous 24/7 blood pressure monitoring, making healthy blood pressure achievable for everyone.

Own your blood pressure. Change your health.
