Our take

In the U.S, strokes are the third leading cause of death killing more than 140,000 people annually. These fatality rates are partially a result of strokes being hard to diagnose, and once they occur it is often too late.

Viz uses artificial intelligence to rapidly identify stroke victims to provide treatment faster, aiming to save lives and the financial costs associated with medical treatment. The company achieves this by using machine learning which is trained to identify anomalies within brain scans that neuroscientists struggle to spot.

With a valuation of over $1 billion, in 2023, Viz secured capital from pharmaceutical giant Bristol-Meyers-Squibbs to develop an AI algorithm and provider workflow focused on detecting hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. This is part of Viz's objective of branching out from a focus on strokes into new healthcare territory.
