Wearable wellness patches backed by clinical research and network distribution
LifeWave manufactures wearable phototherapy patches sold through a network marketing model, with a tech stack split between Adobe creative tools (Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro) and modern cloud infrastructure (Azure, Node.js, React, PostgreSQL). The project backlog and pain-point list reveal a compliance-heavy operational reality: most active work centers on regulatory adherence, brand consistency across regions, and email marketing compliance—suggesting the core technical challenge is scaling product and marketing operations while managing regulatory risk rather than core R&D.
