How We Help

Problem Statement

Withings addresses the problem of disconnected and inaccessible health monitoring by providing integrated, clinically validated smart devices and services that empower both consumers and healthcare professionals to proactively manage health and prevent chronic diseases.

Core Technology

Withings integrates sensor technology into everyday devices. Key products include smart scales, blood pressure monitors, smart sleep systems, activity-tracking watches, and the Health Mate App / Withings+. They pioneered the first Wi-Fi scale and are developing U-Scan, a forthcoming home urine lab.

Key Differentiators

Pioneering innovation (first Wi-Fi scale, smart blood pressure monitor), clinically validated and medical-grade measurements (FDA-cleared devices), an ecosystem approach with seamless integration, strong design and user experience, a focus on preventive health and long-term behavior change, dedicated B2B health solutions, and cellular connectivity options.

Clinical Focus

Withings focuses on preventive health and the management of chronic conditions, including cardiovascular health, metabolic health (diabetes), sleep disorders, weight management, peripheral neuropathies, and kidney health, by providing clinically validated and medical-grade measurements through connected devices.

What do you think of Withings?

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.
