Within3 built the world’s first insights management platform for life science companies. But there’s more to the story.
We launched in 2007 as a secure peer-to-peer engagement platform for physicians but soon identified the need for something more – a way for pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical device companies to gather the insights that drive innovation and deliver powerful results for their business and life-changing results for patients around the world.

We launched in 2007 as a secure peer-to-peer engagement platform for physicians but soon identified the need for something more – a way for pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical device companies to gather the insights that drive innovation and deliver powerful results for their business and life-changing results for patients around the world.
The Within3 insights management platform can deliver all of that through our technology – built on network analytics, asynchronous virtual engagement, and life science-trained natural language processing powered by artificial intelligence. But humans have always been at the core of what we do, and customer implementations are supported by dedicated client success and data science teams.
We’ve always been focused on delivering the best results to our clients (who happen to include all of the world’s top 20 pharmaceutical companies and leading medical device organizations). But we also deliver a meaningful partnership, more than a decade of experience, and deep industry knowledge.
In everything we do, we work toward a common goal: to help life science teams get more value from every engagement so they can move quickly to deliver life-changing therapies to patients worldwide.
“The Within3 platform is well-designed and
allows continued engagement with our thought
leaders.”
