Metronomic, Inc. is a digital health company targeting the U.S. maternal care market through its Materno™ platform. The company was founded by Dr. Sujith Krishnan, who also serves as the CEO. Metronomic aims to address significant costs and poor maternal mortality rates in the developed world by focusing on preventable complications.
The core of its business is the Materno™ pregnancy management platform, which provides personalized, evidence-based care plans, remote patient monitoring, and patient engagement tools. This service is designed to function as an extension of OB/GYN clinics, integrating remote monitoring and care management to enhance the reach of traditional clinic-based care. The platform tracks key vitals such as weight, blood pressure, and glucose, which is particularly beneficial for managing conditions like gestational diabetes and pre-eclampsia. The business model appears to be B2B2C, partnering with employers and health plans to offer its services to their members, often at no direct cost to the patient. It is designed to supplement the care patients receive from their existing OB-GYN or midwife, offering additional support between in-person appointments.
A significant milestone for the company was the acquisition of Iron Health, a tech-enabled women's health provider, on December 30, 2024. This strategic move expanded Metronomic's services beyond maternity care to include a broader range of women's health needs such as primary care, behavioral health, and weight management. Following the acquisition, Iron Health continues to operate as an independent entity, leveraging Metronomic's digital platform to enhance its offerings. Dr. Sujith Krishnan assumed the role of CEO at Iron Health, succeeding its founder, Stephanie Winans. This integration aims to create a comprehensive, end-to-end solution for women's health, covering both obstetrics and gynecology.
