Superpower, a healthcare technology startup founded in 2023, is launching its innovative health management platform to the public. The comprehensive system combines advanced lab testing, AI-driven analysis, and personalized healthcare guidance for $499 annually.
Key Features of Superpower’s Platform
The platform offers biannual lab testing that analyzes over 100 blood biomarkers across 21 health categories, providing a more detailed health overview than traditional physical examinations. Members can conduct these tests either at home or through one of Superpower’s 2,000 partner labs nationwide.
The web application integrates test results with users’ medical histories, fitness tracking data, and genetic information to create a personalized health profile. This profile highlights potential health concerns and provides an actionable plan for improvement.
Comprehensive Health Monitoring
The testing covers various health aspects including:
- Nutrient and mineral levels
- Hormone balance
- Metabolic health, which is linked to cardiovascular disease, certain cancers, and neurodegenerative conditions
Additional specialty tests available at extra cost include:
- Gut microbiome analysis
- Grail cancer screening that can detect over 50 cancer types before symptoms appear
Personalized Health Insights and Support
The platform features a ‘Superpower Score’ and ‘Biological Age’ metric to track health progress and identify areas for improvement. Upon receiving their personalized health results, members are connected to a network of healthcare providers through an integrated marketplace.
The service also includes access to a 24/7 hybrid concierge care team – combining AI and human support – for personalized guidance and support.
Vision for Healthcare Transformation
Founders Jacob Peters, Max Marchione, and Kevin Unkrich created Superpower following their personal experiences with healthcare challenges. The trio aims to bridge the gap between advanced healthcare and general accessibility.
“We’re creating a new front door to the healthcare system,” Peters explained. “Instead of navigating the fragmented world of healthcare, we bring everything under one roof, providing a lifelong health partner.”
The company has garnered significant interest, with 150,000 people currently on its waitlist. Superpower has secured $30 million in Series A funding from prominent investors, including Forerunner and notable celebrities such as Vanessa Hudgens and Giannis Antetokounmpo.
While initially launching as a web application, Superpower plans to develop iOS and Android apps in the future to enhance accessibility across different platforms.
