Rehab Boost

Based in Miami, Florida, Rehab Boost, Inc. operates in the HealthTech sector, specializing in artificial intelligence for physical rehabilitation. The company was founded in 2018 by Paul Jaure. On October 21, 2024, Medbridge, a healthcare technology solutions provider, acquired Rehab Boost for an undisclosed amount. Following the acquisition, Rehab Boost was rebranded as Medbridge Motion Capture, a key part of Medbridge AI. Paul Jaure assumed the role of Head of AI at Medbridge to continue his work in AI-powered care.

Rehab Boost developed a patented rehabilitation platform that utilizes AI-powered body motion recognition technology. This technology is delivered through a SaaS model and is designed to serve both patients and physical therapists. The platform functions as a cross-platform suite for remotely administered physical therapy. Using any mobile, tablet, or web-based device, the application captures a user's movements during exercise in real-time. The system then analyzes the user's key positions, compares them to an ideal model, and provides immediate feedback and instructions. For clinicians, the platform offers real-time analytics, reporting, and monitoring of patient performance, which helps to track compliance and progress throughout a treatment plan. Treatment plans can be configured to dynamically adjust based on the data, either through self-guided programs or direct modifications by a therapist. The business model is designed to increase patient compliance and improve outcomes, thereby generating revenue for physical therapy clinics.

In October 2021, the company opened its Series A funding round, led by investor SALT Venture Partners. Prior to its acquisition, Rehab Boost had established a notable advisory board, including a partnership with the Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) and Dr. Riley Williams, who served on the Medical Advisory Board. In 2022, the company appointed Jennifer Holmes as CEO and Frank Decker as Senior Vice President of Commercial Operations to prepare for a full US commercial launch.
