Overview
Founded in 2024, PinkSteady was developed to address the limitations of reactive fall-detection technology. The company leverages research from the Center for Research in Human Movement Variability at the University of Nebraska Omaha, focusing on the science of stochastic resonance. By using sub-threshold pink-noise audio and inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensors already present in iPhones and Apple Watches, the platform helps users improve their proprioceptive signals and maintain stability.
Traction
as reported by the founderThe company has launched its app on the Apple App Store, established partnerships with university biomechanics labs, and is currently running pilot programs with assisted living facilities.
Financial detail is visible to signed-in investors. Values shown are placeholders, not real figures.
The company addresses the high risk of falls among older adults by shifting the focus from reactive fall detection to proactive stability enhancement. It solves the issue of declining balance and confidence by providing measurable, daily feedback and sensory cues that help users improve their physical steadiness.
The company's moat is built on a deep research foundation, including a $20M+ NIH-funded biomechanics research base, and the application of stochastic resonance technology to consumer mobile devices without the need for proprietary hardware.
The market includes the aging population, with one in four adults over 65 falling each year, and the broader senior care ecosystem including assisted living facilities and physical therapy providers.
Traditional fall detection devices, wearable medical alert systems, and other digital health apps focused on gait analysis or physical therapy.
