Wearables and AI to predict sepsis
We're building a wearable system combined with AI algorithms to detect early signs of sepsis outside of hospitals. Our product continuously monitors physiological data and alerts patients and providers before sepsis becomes critical, aiming to prevent hospitalizations.
We live in San Francisco, CA, and will remain based here after YC.
San Francisco offers direct access to healthcare innovation, AI talent, and clinical partnerships critical to developing and scaling our medical device.
