Sherbit

Sherbit operates as a healthcare analytics company, providing a platform designed to aggregate and analyze personal health data. The company was founded in 2014 by Sameer Sood and Alex Kaveh Senemar, who served as CEO. The concept for Sherbit was developed and refined at a Harvard Medical School accelerator program, where the founders gained access to physicians, technologists, and patients to intimately understand the pain points in primary care and disease management. This experience allowed them to build a solution focused on patient-centered needs.

The firm's core business involves a data-driven technology solution that collects information from a variety of sources, including smartphones, applications, wearables, and medical devices. This aggregated data is then processed to deliver personalized insights and recommendations to healthcare providers, enabling them to better understand their patients' lifestyles and behaviors. The platform serves healthcare organizations such as hospitals and medical centers, aiming to improve health outcomes, particularly for patients with chronic diseases. Sherbit had established a track record of working with prominent U.S. healthcare organizations, including the Mayo Clinic, Tufts Medical Center, and Jefferson Health.

In September 2018, Sherbit was acquired by Medopad, a UK-based digital health company, as part of Medopad's strategic expansion into the United States. The acquisition was intended to combine Sherbit's data aggregation capabilities with Medopad's technology for monitoring rare, chronic, and complex diseases. Following the acquisition, Alex Senemar was appointed to lead Medopad's U.S. operations, and Sherbit's San Francisco office became the main U.S. base for the merged entity.
