The reality

Scaling amidst scarce resources.

  • TB is a massive global burden with ~10.8M people falling ill in 2023 (WHO).
  • Symptom screening misses cases and drives unnecessary testing costs.
  • X-ray infrastructure doesn’t scale to every clinic.

The solution

TB screening that goes where X-rays can't.

  • Fully portable, digital stethoscope for use in remote areas.
  • Simple, repeatable steps any nurse or CHW can follow.
  • Immediate results allow for faster rule out or refer decisions.

Greater accuracy without the X-ray infrastructure.

Meets WHO cost guidelines: $0.22–$1.65 per screen (depending on volume).

Supports remote training and onboarding for frontline health workers in any location.
