The Covid pandemic has led to a rapid increase in telehealth usage. In the summer of 2019 only 8% of patients had used telehealth - that number is now above 50%. But the one thing preventing all of our healthcare needs from being met virtually? The world is still physical. We still need vaccines, blood draws, injections, and therapeutics that can only be delivered in person. That's where we come in. Axle Health connects telehealth platforms and patients with in-home healthcare professionals to bring care into the patient's home. We bridge the gap between physical and digital care.
We recently finished YC and raised our $2.5M seed round from Pear VC along with the founders of Eden Health, CareRev, and QuiteGenius plus Nikhil Krishnan from Out of Pocket and former execs at One Medical. We've also been featured in TechCrunch. If you want to get an idea of where we’re headed, check out our CEO’s launch blog post.
