01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
Bionic Health was a Durham, North Carolina startup building an 'AI health clinic': preventative health services where patients get bloodwork and other diagnostics carried out and monitored, and an AI built on OpenAI's GPT-4 and other machine-learning models provides personalised insights from the data - genomics, biomarkers, wearables and performance testing - with clinician review. Co-founded by CEO Robbie Allen and Dr. Jared Pelo (CMO), both early movers in commercialising AI, it raised $3 million in seed funding in March 2023 and priced the service at $250 per month, initially targeting preventative care rather than primary care. No public source documents a shutdown or failure.
