We are Ahead Health
Healthcare today is reactive, fragmented, and increasingly expensive. Despite having more health data than ever, we lack effective systems to prevent disease and optimize wellbeing.
That's why we started Ahead Health. We're building a platform that transforms how people understand and manage their health, shifting from reactive treatment to proactive prevention. Our product integrates: (1) A secure health data repository, (2) continuous medical supervision, and (3) an intuitive health dashboard for patients.
By combining technology with genuine medical expertise, we help people take control of their health journey before problems arise. As our Prevention Specialist GP, you’ll bring this to live with an experienced, and mission-driven founding team out of Octorad, Google, Oxford, Kaia Health and more.
We're excited to build Europe's leading preventive health platform, starting in Switzerland.
We’re backed by founders and execs from Hugging Face, Cradle, Google, DeepMind, Oviva, Stanford Medicine, GE, Philips, and Coda.
