Longevity for the 99%.
Mederva is bringing AI-enabled healthspan care to primary care. We partner with clinics to turn lifestyle and behavior change into continuous, reimbursed care, extending healthy years of life between visits.
Mederva offers a behavioral health preventive-care program centered on longevity. It analyzes users' health data (records, labs, wearables) to identify 2-3 high-impact changes and pairs the user with a dedicated coach to implement a personalized protocol, with services often covered by insurance.
Mederva pulls together healthcare data from records, wearables, and behavioral inputs, analyzes each data point against longevity research to identify the top 2-3 changes with the highest impact, builds a personalized protocol, and pairs the user with a 1:1 dedicated coach who guides daily habits and adjusts the plan as the user improves. The process emphasizes no new blood tests and aims to be covered by insurance, offering ongoing coaching, goal selection, and a evolving plan based on data and progress.
Who it’s for: Individuals seeking preventive longevity-focused care who want a data-driven, coach-supported plan and insurance coverage.
Mention of insurance coverage, coaching, and a case study; references to a pricing model and ongoing engagement imply early to growth-stage traction.
I studied cognitive psych and mechanical engineering (Human Factors) at Tufts (as well as English, Philosophy) and have been in Product and UX Design for 20+ years. I was the first designer at Ginger (now Headspace Health). Born and raised just north of NYC to Kashmiri and Pakistani immigrants, I spent ~15 years in Boston and now live in Oakland, CA. My goal is to collaborate with folks that care about people and want to shape the impact technology has on humanity for the greater good.
