Modern Health gives everyone a tier to choose. October gives the organisation a change to make.
Modern Health is broad: a global provider network and a tiered model that routes people from self-guided content to coaching to therapy, plus community Circles. October Health is the layer above it — clinically effective care the whole workforce uses, prioritised intelligence that tells leaders what to act on next, and embedded experts who execute the change. Breadth helps people pick a path. October makes sure the organisation actually moves.
A global provider network and a flexible tiered model — self-guided content, coaching, therapy and Circles — so different needs find a fitting starting point worldwide.
Breadth can mean shallower org-change. Engagement is benefit-style, and the insight is reporting you interpret rather than prioritised action with someone driving it.
Software plus embedded experts across the entire organisation — 65% utilisation, prioritised insight on what to act on, and people who execute the change. Care and org-change in one measurable system.

Questions, answered.
Is October Health an alternative to Modern Health?+
Yes. Both deliver clinically effective mental-health support globally. The difference is depth: Modern Health offers a tiered menu individuals choose from, while October pairs care with org-wide intelligence and embedded experts who execute measurable change across the whole workforce — typically at far higher utilisation.
How does utilisation compare?+
Modern Health's tiered model broadens access, but engagement remains benefit-style — the people who opt in. October sees around 65% utilisation, roughly 10× a traditional EAP, because the platform is built for everyday use across every team rather than waiting to be chosen.
What about insight and reporting?+
Modern Health gives you utilisation and outcome reporting to interpret. October gives you prioritised insight — what's driving burnout, flight risk and eNPS and what to do next — plus embedded experts who execute the change, so the analysis turns into action.
What about pricing?+
Modern Health typically charges a per-employee access fee plus session-based costs, which can be hard to forecast at scale. October uses predictable platform pricing and gives you a costed ROI up front, so finance can model the return before you commit.
Does October replace the coaching and therapy tiers?+
No — October provides clinically effective care, coaching and an AI companion, and adds the organisational layer: prioritised insight for leaders and embedded experts who drive change. You get individual care and measurable org-wide outcomes in one system.
