Everyplace Labs

Everyplace Labs provides a new model of remote healthcare delivery through self-service diagnostic kiosks designed for essential worksites and community settings. The company was co-founded by CEO Michael Tu, Claire Zhou, and Prasanth Bijjam. The idea originated while Tu was at Northwestern University, initially developing a smart toilet for automated urine diagnostics to address bottlenecks in emergency departments. When the COVID-19 pandemic decentralized healthcare, the team pivoted their core technology to create the diagnostic kiosk.

The company's primary product is a self-service kiosk that automates the entire point-of-care testing process. An employee uses a screening tool, and if a test is needed, they are directed to the kiosk. The machine guides them through sample collection and provides results in approximately 15 minutes, which can be shared with a telehealth clinician. The system is modular, leveraging existing test strips to potentially expand its menu from an initial COVID-19/flu test to include tests for substance abuse, chronic diseases like diabetes and cardiovascular disease, and general urinalysis.

Everyplace Labs operates on a B2B model, targeting essential employers in sectors like manufacturing, warehousing, and retail. The business model is a low-cost, turnkey solution for employers, aiming to improve workplace safety and employee health by making testing convenient and reducing productivity disruptions. The company has received backing from investors including StartUp Health, mHUB Ventures, Fogarty Innovation, and MassChallenge, with total funding of $1.94M.
