Guidepost

Johannesburg, South Africa

Together, the person with diabetes and their dedicated coach walk a journey of progressive improvement through a series of individualised tele-consultations, figuring out what works and what doesn’t on the path to health. Our coaches use sophisticated tools, data analytics and the power of empathy to understand the needs and context of each individual, choosing the right intervention for the right person at the right time. We believe in the power of human connections. Behaviour change is hard and having an expert who cares about you on the journey to health is the best way to make changes stick and keep improving. There are over 400 million people with diabetes and to reach them all we are scaling up empathy and putting humans back into healthcare.

What do you think of Guidepost?

A HUGE part of what early stage companies, and even late stage ones, need and get on MedStartr is honest feedback from actual patients, clinicians, hospital leaders and industry insiders. It is very easy to get tunnel vision as a founder. Please tell the team that runs this company what you think.

Clinical Benefit Potential

The potential for a project to have a large and significant impact on medical care, treatment, or prevention.

Feasibility

The likelihood that this will provide benefit for patients / care givers and that the founders can execute on their vision and plan.

Innovativeness

The distinguishing features, concept, or technology that differentiates the entry compared to others that already exist and are in widespread use.

Fundability

The reviewers' beliefs that the idea is fundable or can make it to sustainability without outside investment.

Scalability

Some great ideas are destined to failure because they are too complex or too expensive. The reviewer should consider the likelihood that a project as explained, or perhaps with some tweaks, could possibly become a worldwide solution within a reasonable time frame.

Presentation Quality

How well the team presented the idea.
