BioMech

What BioMech does

BioMech is a Richmond, Virginia-based biotechnology company that designs, develops, and distributes clinical motion analytics products. The company's core technology is a proprietary sensor-based platform that captures 12 vectors of patient movement at hundreds of times per second via miniaturized wireless, self-calibrating sensors (26mm × 47mm × 14mm, under 1 oz), processes the data through its proprietary Coretex.AI multi-modal AI/ML engine, and delivers real-time, HIPAA-compliant analytics through BioMech Lab. The product suite is deployed in three configurations — Lab in Clinic, Lab at Home, and Lab Remote Assist — covering in-office assessments, physician-ordered remote kinematic monitoring, and caregiver-facilitated testing in home health and assisted living settings.

The platform generates objective, quantitative measurements of gait, balance, symmetry, range of motion, reaction time, and tremor, applied across 15+ clinical specialties including neurology, orthopedics, physical therapy, neurodiagnostics, pain management, and sports medicine. BioMech monetizes through three streams: (1) hardware sales of motion sensor kits, (2) subscription-based cloud analytics and HIPAA-compliant web portal access, and (3) usage-based revenue from Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) services. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales direct to clinics, hospitals, and rehabilitation centers, supplemented by an OEM integration partnership with ēlizur for the Shoulder Strengthening and Stabilization (SSS) device. Customer segments include healthcare providers, payers, patients, and sports medicine practitioners.

The company operates as BioMech Holdings, LLC (Virginia LLC, founded 2014) with BioMech Health, LLC as its core operating subsidiary, and is led by co-founders Dr. Frank A. Fornari (Chairman/CEO) and Dr. Gwen B. Bauer (CSO), both previously co-founders of Dominion Diagnostics. Cumulative disclosed funding is approximately $5.4M across prior rounds (2018, 2019) plus a 2025 SEC Form D equity offering of up to $3M ($345K sold as of October 30, 2025). Scale metrics cited by the company include 5,000+ sensors manufactured, 200+ healthcare facility deployments, 80,000+ reports generated, and 1,000+ patients served; the company is FDA-cleared and has won industry recognition including the 2022 AI Breakthrough "Best Overall Biometric Solution" award and the 2023 GHP Healthcare and Pharmaceutical award.

Core offering

BioMech designs, develops, and distributes clinical motion analytics solutions centered on BioMech Lab™, a proprietary sensor-based platform powered by the Coretex.AI AI/ML engine. The platform captures 12 vectors of patient movement at hundreds of times per second and delivers real-time, clinically actionable assessments of gait, balance, symmetry, range of motion, reaction time, and tremor to healthcare providers in clinic, at home, and in assisted-care settings. Solutions are deployed across neurology, orthopedics, rehabilitation, pain management, sports medicine, and other specialties, with HIPAA-compliant cloud delivery and FDA clearance.

Product overview

BioMech is a biotechnology company developing real-time motion analytics solutions. The core platform is BioMech Lab™, which combines proprietary wireless motion sensors with the Coretex.AI multi-modal AI engine to capture, measure and process 12 vectors of patient movement in real-time. The product suite includes three deployment modules: Lab in Clinic for in-office assessments, Lab at Home for patient self-administered remote monitoring, and Lab Remote Assist for caregiver-facilitated testing in assisted living and home health settings. The platform delivers clinically actionable results for gait, balance, symmetry, range of motion, and reaction time assessments, supporting diagnosis, treatment planning, and outcome monitoring across multiple medical specialties.

Emerging players

• Sword Health: Sword Health is a digital musculoskeletal care platform that uses AI-powered computer vision (no wearable hardware) to analyze patient movement during physical therapy sessions at home. Comparable to BioMech Lab at Home as a competing approach to remote functional motion assessment, but uses camera-based rather than sensor-based capture.
• Hinge Health: Hinge Health provides digital MSK care combining wearable sensors and computer vision for exercise tracking and outcomes measurement. Comparable to BioMech in delivering motion analytics for orthopedic and physical therapy populations, but at much larger scale and using primarily computer-vision-based capture.
• Reflexion Health (VERA): Reflexion Health built the VERA telehealth physical therapy platform using Microsoft Kinect-based motion capture for in-home rehabilitation. Comparable to BioMech Lab at Home in delivering remote motion-based rehabilitation, though using camera-based capture rather than wearable sensors.

Broad incumbents

• OrthoSensor (Stryker): OrthoSensor (acquired by Stryker) developed intelligent orthopedic sensors embedded in knee implants and surgical instruments for intra-operative balancing. A broader medtech incumbent that overlaps with BioMech's orthopedic motion analytics application space but focuses on surgical implants rather than functional motion assessment.
