Re-inventing metabolic health
Digital therapeutics for metabolic syndrome
The global epidemic of metabolic syndrome
Problem worth solving
Global prevalence of metabolic syndrome is growing fast affecting nearly 25% of the world’s adult population, that’s over 1,3 billion people worldwide.
Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of risk factors that greatly increases the risk of developing heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and other chronic metabolic diseases.
Metabolic syndrome is a huge economic burden worldwide with 1,6x higher healthcare cost per patient and billions in lost productivity for employers.
Digital therapeutics for metabolic syndrome
Our solution
We are working with leading research institutions to build the world’s first AI-driven DTx platform for metabolic syndrome that improves patient outcomes, saves cost and scales like software.
Partners
The €1 million R&D project brings together world-class scientists, engineers and medical experts to develop a Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) platform for preventing, monitoring and treating metabolic syndrome related disorders.
The platform features a metabolic risk prediction model and unique behavioral activation technology that combines clinical guidelines, behavioral science and AI to create highly personalised intervention programs.
What are digital therapeutics?
A new class of medicine
Digital therapeutics (DTx) are clinically proven software applications prescribed by physicians to prevent or treat specific diseases.
Digital therapeutic applications go through clinical trials and regulatory review, similar to a traditional drug or medical device, in order to validate their safety and efficacy.
The difference between a Digital Therapeutic and other health apps is similar to that between a supplement like Vitamin C, and a prescription drug from a pharmacy.
