AI-powered pregnancy care platform Marani Health, formerly Odonata Health, raises $3.7M
Marani Health, an AI-powered remote pregnancy care platform, announced their latest milestone last week (Feb 25) having raised $3.7M in an oversubscribed funding initiative. The move highlights the rapid advancement of MedTech and telehealth as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The platform founded by Mayo Clinic saw SWL Healthcare Ventures providing the largest investment, followed by new investor TFX Capital. As a result, more than $5.5 million in capital has been raised to-date.
The Minneapolis-based health tech startup aims to improve the pregnancy experience and outcomes for mothers and their babies by providing personalised insights for pregnancy and improving access to care. Shelly Lanning of SWL Healthcare Venture had commented in the past that Marani Health is able to capitalise on the short comings of the traditional US healthcare system by prioritising?patient?healthcare while containing?costs.

In addition, Marani Health also announced the appointment of healthcare veteran Jodi Hubler to the company’s board of directors.
She said in a statement:
With billions spent annually in the U.S. on pregnancy-related complications, Marani Health’s comprehensive maternity health platform which includes a proprietary sensing device is the type of innovation we need,
I am excited to take on this opportunity.
