Medteria Inc. develops and operates a communication cloud platform for medical professionals and medical students. The service combines features of cloud storage and social networking, allowing users to securely store and share materials like documents, images, and videos, thereby enhancing productivity and discussion.
The company was established on August 1, 2024, as a carve-out from Medmain, Inc., a medtech startup focused on pathology AI. The decision to spin off was made to enable Medteria to raise its own funds for business expansion, monetization, and organizational strengthening, as Medmain continues to focus its resources on its primary product, "PidPort". Medteria's founder, who also founded Medmain while a medical student at Kyushu University, was named to Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia in the Healthcare & Science category in 2020.
Medteria serves a market that includes university medical departments, hospitals, and academic societies. The platform supports users in various ways, such as preparing for university exams, sharing information within hospitals, and managing academic societies. It aims to solve issues like knowledge loss when personnel leave and inefficiencies in information sharing. While initially a marketing tool for Medmain without aggressive monetization, Medteria grew to approximately 40,000 users, prompting the move to operate and fundraise independently. In January 2025, the company announced it had raised 100 million yen (approximately $641K) in a seed round from investors including QB Capital and NCB Venture Capital to enhance software development and strengthen its operational and sales structures.
