Kinsa

At Kinsa, we track the spread of disease in real-time. We use mobile products to do it. These same products transform how people care for their children, families and communities. Our first product is an ultra-low-cost smartphone-connected thermometer. The world’s smartest thermometer, it does not simply tell you your temperature. You can track your symptoms with a few simple taps to show your doctor later, view the “health weather” in the local area or at your child's school to know whether it's strep or flu going around, or book an immediate doctor's appointment. We designed the thermometer with children and parents in mind. Using the smartphone's display, we have created an engaging experience making it easier to take a sick child's temperature. The Kinsa Smart Thermometer has no batteries, LCD, or processor, instead leveraging the power of the smartphone, keeping the device ultra low cost.
