The Science

Technology validated by first principles.

Three converging technology shifts make continuous musculoskeletal biomarker monitoring possible for the first time.

01

Microneedle ISF Access

Painless, sustained sampling at 1–2mm depth. Continuous analyte capture from interstitial fluid without venipuncture — real-time telemetry, not snapshots.

02

Electrochemical Biosensors

Clinical-grade sensitivity for proteins and ions in compact, low-power formats. Electrochemical immunosensing, aptamer-based detection, and ion-selective electrodes on a single chip.

03

Longitudinal AI/ML

Time-series modeling converts continuous biosignals into predictive clinical insights. Gradient Boosting for fracture risk, RNNs for flare prediction, and personalized therapy optimization.

Proprietary Algorithms

The AI forecasting engine.

Continuous data powers predictive models impossible with episodic snapshots.

Time-series CTX-1/P1NP data combined with patient covariates feed a Gradient Boosting Machine that outputs a continuously updated fracture probability and projected BMD trajectory — replacing the static FRAX model.

How It Works

Mechanism of action.

01

Patch adheres

Painless application to skin surface

02

ISF access

Microneedles reach 2mm into interstitial fluid

03

Continuous sampling

Analytes captured in real-time

04

Equilibration

ISF ↔ blood correlation in 5–30 min

05

Live data

Biomarkers streamed to app and clinician

Interstitial fluid equilibrates with blood within 5–30 minutes, enabling near-real-time tracking of bone resorption, formation, mineral balance, and inflammation — without a single blood draw.
