Zuri Fertility

Zuri Fertility offers end-to-end fertility care via our mobile app, including complete fertility workups, telehealth appointments, at-home testing, education, longitudinal support, and care coordination. Zuri gives fertility patients earlier access to answers to save them time and money.
Company Description
Harnessing the power of telehealth, we provide a comprehensive fertility workup earlier in patients’ fertility journeys. In addition, our app offers in-depth educational content, personal concierge support, and best-in-class care coordination. Our features allow us to be a trusted resource for everyone involved in the journey. A one-time fee covers the complete fertility workup (including telehealth visits, lab tests, imaging study, and semen analysis), and a monthly subscription fee gives patients access to the rest of the platform. The fertility journey is confusing, time-consuming, and difficult for patients to navigate, simultaneously putting couples into financial anxiety and emotional distress. Our patients’ most significant need is simplifying the fertility journey. So we built a better way.

Key Benefits & Traction

Our pre-revenue company has received strong validation for our MVP, currently in pilot testing, which includes educational resources, cycle tracking, and our proprietary clinic match score. The next iteration of our product, including telehealth and support features, is scheduled to begin testing in late April. In addition, our customer engagement is demonstrated through several channels:

Patient Interviews:

We conducted over 100 interviews with fertility patients.

65% of patients expressed the need for better educational resources, and 61% wanted accurate early testing that providers could use.

Doctor Interviews:

We also interviewed 25 fertility doctors.

77% were concerned about the lack of accurate resources for their patients, and 70% said that medically-directed at-home testing ahead of their first appointment would be valuable.

Website Sign-ups:

Despite zero marketing spend, we have over 300 couples signed up on our website's waitlist, indicating strong demand for our product.

Social Media Engagement:

Our social media presence is growing rapidly, with 49K video views on TikTok and 23K accounts reached on Instagram over the last 60 days, both showing significant growth (300-500%) from 60 days prior.

Partnership Discussions:

We are in discussions with a major health system to white-label our service and have had multiple meetings with high-level executives.

Our next step is to meet with a focus group of OB/GYNs to discuss the implementation process.
