YOU(th) Health Tech Raises $4.5M To Expand Digital Preventive Health

The round was led by Callisto Health, with participation from caesar., adesso Ventures, Antler, Moonstone, and 1024 Ventures. Angel investors include Jean-Charles Samuelian (Founder & CEO of Alan, founding member of Mistral AI) and Patrick Andrae (Founder & CEO of HomeToGo).

Rising interest in longevity among younger populations, coupled with an ageing demographic has increased demand for health screenings. Yet research indicates nearly 60% of people avoid preventive tests due to friction at the point of care, including long waits, high costs and complex equipment.

YOU(th) addresses this gap by leveraging smartphone sensor data and machine learning to simplify preventive screening. Using inputs such as face videos, voice recordings eye and skin images, typing patterns and step data, the platform can assess a user’s health in under two minutes, identifying over 50 digital biomarkers across more than 10 organ systems.

By using smartphones instead of specialized hardware, needles or clinic visits, YOU(th) enables easy, low-friction health checkups across cardiovascular, respiratory, cognitive, dermatological, metabolic, mental and blood health.

The platform estimates metrics such as blood pressure, oxygen levels, respiratory symptoms, glucose and cholesterol proxies, cognitive age, skin condition, and hydration.

The new funding will support accelerated product development and the expansion of YOU(th)’s engineering, data science, and medical research teams.

Founded in 2023 YOU(th) Health Tech uses smartphone sensors and machine learning to make preventive care accessible. Within two minutes, the platform analyzes face, voice and eye data to assess health, detecting early signs of risks across six or more organs and over 20 digital biomarkers, helping extend healthspan.

Filippo Nigro, founder and CEO of YOU(th), said the company’s mission is to expand access to preventive care to billions of people worldwide:

Everyone talks about prevention yet only about 8% screen at the optimal frequency because time, cost and friction get in the way. They remove those barriers by turning everyday phone behaviour, selfies, voice, typing into passive health screening seamlessly connected to real healthcare. Prevention shouldn’t interrupt life; it should run inside it.
