NEW YORK, April 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- One Drop, a leader in digital care solutions for
people living with diabetes and other chronic conditions, today
announced it has acquired all of the assets and intellectual
property of Sano Intelligence, Inc., an innovator in health sensing
technology. The deal was structured as an asset purchase, and several Sano team members will be joining
One Drop.
The almost decade of work put into developing the Sano
continuous glucose sensing platform will live on in a comprehensive
multi-sensorial solution from One
Drop. The planned development marks a significant milestone
in One Drop's effort to bring
personalized, adaptive, integrated health solutions to people in
real time via their mobile phones.
One Drop will leverage the
acquired assets, including silicon-sensing production
infrastructure, to design, produce, and commercialize a painless,
silicon-based continuous health sensing platform for use across
multiple conditions.
"Sano and One Drop have a shared
vision of transforming traditional healthcare into proactive,
preventative self-care," said Sano CEO and founder, Ashwin Pushpala. "We are excited to combine our
sensor and device expertise with the strength of One Drop's data-driven predictive capabilities
and user-centered design to create a comprehensive collision
avoidance system for health and wellness."
To date, One Drop has collected 9
billion longitudinal health data points across 75 biomarkers from
nearly 2.5 million users. One Drop's
continuous health sensing platform will add thousands of new data
points per user per day, thereby strengthening the machine learning
models behind One Drop's predictive
and adaptive support capabilities across multiple conditions.
"Telehealth and digital self-management of chronic conditions
are more important than ever, and the benefits of real-time health
sensing are obvious," said One Drop CEO and founder, Jeff Dachis. "By introducing continuous health
sensing technology to One Drop's
personalized solutions for a rapidly growing variety of health
issues, we can empower people to make informed, proactive choices
and prevent problems before they happen."
One Drop has expanded its
diabetes solution to offer data-driven tools and personalized
support for people living with type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes,
gestational diabetes, prediabetes, high blood pressure, high
cholesterol, or any combination of these conditions. At the same
time, One Drop has supplemented its
direct-to-consumer channels by introducing end-to-end employer and
payor offerings, digital-only offerings, and broader retail
availability to reach even larger populations. The company's unique
approach combines personal health coaching, connected devices, and
AI-powered Predictive Insights to inspire positive behavior
change.
