What Marani does

Marani Health, Inc. (formerly Odonata Health) is a Minneapolis-based, privately held SaaS health technology company founded in 2018-2019 in collaboration with Mayo Clinic. It delivers AI-powered remote patient monitoring and virtual care for prenatal and postpartum patients, targeting a US maternal health crisis marked by the highest industrialized-nation mortality rate, an estimated $111 billion annual cost across 3.6 million births, projected OB-GYN shortages, and growing maternity care deserts. Its core offering, the M•care System, combines FDA-cleared cellular-connected devices (blood pressure cuff, weight scale, others), a patient mobile application (M•other App), a clinician portal, and a 24/7 virtual care team led by maternal-fetal medicine specialists licensed in all 50 states. The platform is HIPAA, HITRUST, and SOC 2 compliant and ingests biometrics and standardized assessments (EPDS, SDOH) into an AI risk stratification engine for early intervention.

The company operates a B2B2C model selling to health plans, health systems, providers, and employers, monetizing through RPM CPT codes (99453, 99454, 99457, 99458) and platform licensing, supplemented by grant-funded programs including a $5 million CDC grant and $255K NSF SBIR. In September 2025 it extended the platform with the Marani Medical Home service model, adding multidisciplinary care coordinators, nurses, and doulas for whole-person pregnancy care. Named enterprise partners include Wellstar (Georgia and South Carolina), UnityPoint Health (Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin; 8M patients), a leading Wyoming health payor, Ouma Health, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Total disclosed capital raised is approximately $17.5 million across seed, convertible note, and grants, with the most recent round a $7 million convertible note in May 2024 that added MedRisk founder Shelley Boyce to the board.

Marani is venture-backed by SWL Healthcare Ventures, TFX Capital, Fourth Element Capital, Capita3, Starfish Ventures, and One Alpha North, with Wellstar Health System and Mayo Clinic holding board observer seats. The company is pre- or early-revenue, with 11-50 employees and is operating from Minneapolis under the leadership of CEO and co-founder Ann Holder, supported by a leadership bench drawn from Medtronic, Mayo Clinic, and major consumer-products companies.
