Core offering

Kinesis Health Technologies develops and sells sensor-based digital mobility assessment tools — Kinesis QTUG, Kinesis Gait, and Kinesis Balance — that combine wireless inertial sensors and smartphone-embedded sensors with machine learning to objectively measure falls risk, gait, and balance. The Kinesis product line operates within Linus Health's Linus Mobility Solutions platform and is sold to healthcare providers, health systems, life sciences researchers, and payers for clinical, research, and remote self-assessment use cases.

Product overview

Linus Mobility Solutions is a single platform-plus-modules offering built around the Kinesis product line for objective mobility assessment. The platform couples machine learning with scientific validation to provide sensor-based, data-driven assessments of falls risk, gait, and balance across clinical, research, and in-home care settings, and is composed of three named modules: Kinesis QTUG (a wireless-sensor falls risk and frailty assessment based on the TUG test), Kinesis Gait (a portable wireless-sensor clinical gait analysis tool benchmarked against a 3,000+ person reference population), and Kinesis Balance (a smartphone-based remote self-assessment using a Falls Questionnaire, a 30-second balance test, and the FTSS test). Together these products share common inertial-sensor technology, machine-learning-based scoring, and exportable reporting to support proactive intervention, rehabilitation, and longitudinal monitoring.

Products and services

• Kinesis QTUG A falls risk and frailty assessment tool built on the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test, combining wireless sensors with a falls questionnaire to objectively evaluate mobility and falls risk. Generates customizable, exportable reports with comprehensive mobility parameters and longitudinal trending data, designed for use by non-experts across clinical, research, and in-home care settings.
• Kinesis Gait A portable clinical gait analysis tool that uses wireless sensors to deliver precise gait assessment, identifying impairments by comparing patients to a reference population of more than 3,000 individuals. Supports multiple walking tasks (including a 6-minute walk mode), provides immediate quantitative interpretation of each gait component, and enables longitudinal tracking of gait changes and intervention effectiveness.
• Kinesis Balance A smartphone-based remote self-assessment tool that uses the device's built-in sensors to deliver reliable profiles of fall risk, balance, and functional impairment. Includes a validated Falls Questionnaire, a 30-second balance test, and the Five Times Sit to Stand (FTSS) test, supporting remote self-assessment, ongoing monitoring, and proactive health advice for older adults and other users.

Direct peers

• APDM Wearable Technologies (a Clario company): APDM offers wearable inertial-sensor systems (Mobility Lab, Opal) for clinical gait, balance, and mobility assessment in Parkinson's, ALS, and fall-risk populations. It is the most direct competitor to Kinesis QTUG and Kinesis Gait in sensor-based clinical mobility measurement.
• Bertec Corporation: Bertec provides force-plate based balance and mobility assessment systems (e.g., Balance Advantage) used in fall risk and concussion baselines. It targets overlapping clinician and research customers as Kinesis Balance and QTUG.
• Shimmer Research: Shimmer provides wireless wearable sensor platforms (Consensys, Shimmer3 IMU) used in clinical research for gait, balance, and movement analysis. It serves as both a potential competitor and an enabling technology supplier in the same mobility-assessment category as Kinesis.
• ProtoKinetics: ProtoKinetics sells the Zeno Walkway and PKMAS software for quantitative gait and balance assessment in clinical and research settings. It competes with Kinesis Gait for clinical gait analysis customers, though via instrumented walkways rather than wearables.

Emerging players

• BrainCheck: BrainCheck offers tablet-based digital cognitive assessment used by primary care and health systems. It targets similar medical practice and health system buyers as Kinesis, focusing on cognitive rather than mobility assessment.
• Altoida: Altoida develops smartphone- and AR-based digital biomarkers for early detection of Alzheimer's and cognitive impairment. It competes in adjacent neuro-degenerative screening and could compete with Kinesis Balance for the same remote-assessment use case.

Broad incumbents

• Cambridge Cognition: Cambridge Cognition sells validated digital cognitive assessment tools (CANTAB) for clinical trials and healthcare. It overlaps with Kinesis's life-sciences and cognitive-mobility crossover use cases, particularly in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's trials.
• Linus Health: Linus Health is the parent platform housing the Kinesis product line, with a broader focus on digital cognitive assessment (e.g., the Boston Cognitive Clock Drawing-based CCE). It is the same legal entity per the source data and bundles Kinesis with cognitive health tools.
• Clario: Clario is a clinical trial technology and endpoint company that acquired APDM; it offers wearable sensor-based mobility and fall-risk endpoints for pharma trials, directly overlapping Kinesis's life-sciences use case.
• Medidata (Dassault Systèmes): Medidata provides the Rave clinical trial platform and increasingly digital endpoint/biomarker solutions for life sciences. It is a broad incumbent in the same enterprise life-sciences buyer segment that Kinesis targets for clinical trial mobility endpoints.
