Built on Federal R&D.
Tested in Real-World Settings.

Cabana originated through federal Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) programs and continues to collaborate with government and academic partners. We are actively building our evidence base through structured pilots, implementation studies, and continuous data analysis across healthcare, government, and employer settings.

Our approach is simple:
Design intentionally.
Deploy responsibly.
Measure rigorously.

Current and Completed Studies

Cabana’s evidence base is built through federal research, real-world pilots, and a combination of independent and in-house evaluation studies across multiple populations and settings.

Across Public Service • Chronic Conditions • Workplace Settings
