Gut health, women’s health & motherhood

My co-founder @MrsToniToomey and I each recently swallowed a camera. Today we're launching Zaniah Health so you can see what's happening inside your gut too.

The gut is the body's largest immune interface, and research keeps linking the gut to health far beyond digestion. We track sleep, HRV, bloodwork, and our microbiome, yet we've been overlooking the most powerful way to measure gut health:

Directly looking at it.

Zaniah provides at-home, physician-supervised capsule endoscopy. You swallow a small capsule that takes ~30,000 pictures of your GI tract. One of our gastroenterologists reviews the images and sends you a report with findings you can actually see, rather than a dashboard of numbers and scores that you have to decode.

Here's what our capsules found:

>Toni's capsule showed findings in her terminal ileum consistent with Crohn's disease. After more than 30 years of unexplained GI symptoms, she's now getting the workup to confirm it.

>My capsule showed a small nodule in my stomach. Probably nothing, and I'm getting an upper endoscopy to make sure.

Nearly 10 years ago I co-founded Virgo, where we've built the world's largest endoscopy video library, more than 4 million upper endoscopy and colonoscopy procedures. We also trained EndoDINO, a foundation model for endoscopy, using over 130,000 of those videos. Zaniah is where we put that AI to work with capsule endoscopy.

Right now, Zaniah is for adults who want to see what's happening inside their gut. Longer term, we're researching how the gut can reveal early signs of disease beyond the GI tract.

Zaniah doesn't require a referral or insurance coverage, and it's HSA/FSA eligible. Our physicians review eligibility before the kit ships.

The waitlist is now open. Join by December 31st to lock in the $1,499 launch price. It goes up to $1,999 after then, and there's no payment required to join.
