Our take

Daye has set out to build a new brand for female health products. It's an R&D company raising the standards in female healthcare.

Its first product is a new type of tampon that uses CBD to help tackle period cramps. The company works closely with clinical institutions, doctors and researchers to carry out research and development.

By bringing completely novel products to the market, Daye hopes to be a wake-up call to the incumbent and stagnant tampon industry, which has seen little innovation in decades.

Daye is building a full-stack women's health platform, starting with the most overlooked categories. The company is focusing on improving period care, vaginal health screening and contraception recommendations.
