Its FDA-cleared testing platform allows users to test balance and cognitive performance in the clinic or remotely on any mobile device. The company is an MDSAP-certified medical device manufacturer with regulatory clearances in the United States, Canada, the European Union and Australia. Founded in 2011 by CEO Chase Curtiss and based in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Sway intends to use the Series A proceeds to expand in Tulsa by adding to its product team and sales organization. It closed a $4.2M Series A financing to fund that expansion. The company's product and international clearances position it for broader clinical and remote-use adoption. Sway Medical develops Sway Balance, a mobile medical diagnostics app that uses motion sensors in smartphones to perform clinical-grade balance testing. Led by founder and CEO Chase Curtiss, the app provides a mobile alternative to standard pen-and-paper diagnostic tests and can show whether a person has probably suffered a concussion. Sway Balance is available for medical professionals and distributors on the Apple iOS App Store and gathers evidence in moments. Its technology is currently used for instantaneous clinical management of concussions in athletes aged 10 through adulthood. Future versions are planned to assist monitoring patient outcomes in physical therapy, orthopedic and primary care practices, senior living facilities, and worksite medical clinics. The company also announced a strategic partnership with ImPACT Applications to create new tools and expand distribution at sporting events. Sway Medical completed a $750k tranche of its Series A and has raised $1.325m in total funding to date.
