Veris emerged from research on measuring well-being telemetrically (remotely, using web or mobile applications), primarily aimed at using physical (biometric) data and questionnaires to assess mental health. Responding to the increasing need to measure and intervene scalably in both healthcare systems such as the NHS and in large workforces, Veris was designed to allow for a non-coder to be able to organise a protocol (a set of questionnaires and/or biometric tests given in a particular order and frequency in time) and deploy it without having to write a smartphone application from scratch: its remit is thus to provide a telemetric epidemiology framework that is open and easy to use.
