The Maven Clinic Family and Family Health Platform is associated with Smart Ring Maker Oura, a step forward in the integration of the growing amount of data collected by portable devices and clinical care.
As part of the Association, the eligible members of Maven will be able to synchronize the data that their Oura ring collects with the Maven platform, allowing members of the Maven Care team to comb over the data collected from Oura such as sleep, stress and activity to provide a better health orientation.
Maven Clinic, a company three times CNBC Disruptor 50 Company, is the largest virtual clinic for women and family with more than 2,000 employers and health plans using its platform. The company, which raised a financing round of $ 125 million that values it at $ 1.7 billion in October 2024, offers programs that range from fertility and family construction to maternity and care of newborns to menopause and medium -sized health.
Kate Ryder, CEO and founder of Maven Clinic, said we are in a “revitalized consumer's health”, a period that is being defined by the amount of data that are collected through wearables and the desire of people to use those diagnoses to seek treatment and advice.
Ryder said that a recent survey of the members of the Maven Clinic discovered that almost three out of four members are tracing their health regularly with some type of device, and consumers ask: “How do I take my health in my own hands with all these tools and welfare areas at my reach to try to live a healthier life?”
This change caused the new Maven Association with Oura, also a three -time Disruptor 50 company, which occupied the 23rd position on the CNB Disruptor 50 2025 list and has been in its own path of well -being and preventive health through its homonymous ring in recent years.
Although Oura's initial approach focused on monitoring sleep and recovery metrics, its scope has been significantly expanded in recent years to broader personal health and health problems. As the CEO of Oura, Tom Hale, said in a recent CNBC interview, “Oura's vision of Oura has to do with the doctor in his pocket.”
This includes a wide variety of metrics, characteristics and health indicators tracked by the Oura ring and analyzed by AI and the company's analysis to offer user health information, including a variety of features centered on women around menstrual, period and pregnancy cycles.
“One of our key thesis is that women have been overlooked in science, and in health, substitute and overlooked, but we believe they expect the same level of customization, transparency and immediacy of their medical care,” said Dorothy Kilroy, Oura commercial officer. “This is what they want, and traditional medical care has not really been up to date for women and their families.”
Kiloy said that the association between the two companies aims to deliver that, offering “intelligent and connected personalized attention that will fit their lives and not vice versa, which is what old health systems have provided.”
The ultimate goal is to improve health results through the use of data collected by the OURA ring, allowing more personalized recommendations, the ability to catch problems before and be more proactive, and placing expert medical care in critical points.
“The follow -up is the first step, but in reality it is not just about emerging health data,” said Ryder, and said that Maven Clinic is the first virtual care platform into converting Oura's health signals in expert care. “We really want to act accordingly to generate better results.”
An example of how the data could be used would be in the case of a pregnant mave member diagnosed with gestational diabetes. That person could work with a Maven nutritionist or a support coach to help regulate their glucose levels, while using Oura's physical activity and meals and glucose characteristics to monitor their progress.
Oura is increasingly working with a variety of partners in the health sector to use the biometric data collected by their rings, Kilroy said, allowing it to be “matched with clinical care and creating that type of experience without seams in which members can understand what is happening in their body, but in reality they can use that to get attention of experts in one place.”
Ryder said that he sees the convergence of this type of biometric monitoring and the clinical side that leads to much more effective preventive care, which leads to “much better results”, especially among high -risk patients, where this type of reports and commitment can generate significant health improvements.
Maven Clinic will begin to integrate Oura data into its platform from this summer, with the aim of reaching all members who wish to opt for winter. Maven members will also receive exclusive prices in the purchase of an Oura ring.
“We have to change our health system in prevention and invest more in well -being and well -being,” Ryder said. “There are many exciting things that this association can do to step forward, be innovative and show the results in the back -end.”
