Sky Labs product offering
Product offeringCore offering
Sky Labs manufactures and sells ring-type cuffless blood pressure monitors built on photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors combined with proprietary deep learning algorithms. Its portfolio includes the CART PLATFORM encompassing the CART BP consumer ring, the CART BP pro medical-grade 24-hour ambulatory BP monitor for clinics and hospitals, and CART ON for inpatient ward monitoring with EMR integration.
Product overview
Sky Labs offers a unified ring-type cuffless blood pressure monitoring ecosystem centered on the CART PLATFORM. The portfolio spans three distinct product tiers: CART BP for consumers (over-the-counter, no prescription required), CART BP pro for medical professionals at clinics and hospitals (E6547 insurance code), and CART ON for hospital inpatient ward monitoring. All devices use photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors combined with proprietary deep learning algorithms to measure blood pressure continuously without traditional cuffs. The platform includes companion mobile apps, cloud servers, and web-based reporting tools for both patients and healthcare providers. The company has expanded from South Korea to Japan (via Otsuka Pharmaceutical), the UK (MHRA approved), and Europe (CE-MDR certified).

Sky Labs competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Withings: Withings (France, part of Nokia's former connected health portfolio) sells consumer connected blood pressure monitors and broader health devices. Directly comparable to Sky Labs' consumer CART BP product line on channel, customer, and connected-health device model.
- Biobeat: Biobeat (Israel) offers cuffless wearable PPG-based continuous blood pressure and multi-parameter patient monitoring. Closely comparable to Sky Labs' CART platform on both the consumer and clinical/hospital inpatient monitoring use cases.
- iHealth Labs: iHealth Labs (US, subsidiary of Andon Health) manufactures connected home blood pressure monitors and other consumer health devices. Comparable to Sky Labs' B2C CART BP offering in product category and direct-to-consumer distribution model.
- Aktiia: Aktiia (Switzerland) is the closest direct peer — a pure-play cuffless continuous blood pressure monitor using optical PPG sensors with an upper-arm calibration cuff. Targets the same chronic hypertension monitoring use case and competes head-to-head with Sky Labs' CART BP platform in Europe.
Broad incumbents
- Masimo: Masimo (US) is a leading hospital patient monitoring and pulse oximetry company whose rainbow SET technology overlaps with Sky Labs' CART ON inpatient BP monitoring solution. Broad incumbent competing for the same hospital vital-signs monitoring budget.
- OMRON Healthcare: OMRON is the global #1 cuff-based blood pressure monitor maker and a strategic partner/investor in Sky Labs (Nov 2025 global cuffless rollout partnership). Competes broadly with Sky Labs in BP monitoring through its extensive cuff-based portfolio and is now positioned to commercialize Sky Labs' cuffless technology.
- Garmin: Garmin smartwatches include an array of health monitoring features (heart rate, stress, sleep) with expanding cardiovascular capabilities. Broad incumbent wearable platform comparable to Sky Labs' consumer health-monitoring ambitions, particularly for active/health-conscious users.
- Samsung Electronics: Samsung Galaxy Watch lineup includes blood pressure monitoring in select markets. A broad incumbent smartwatch/health platform that competes with Sky Labs' consumer wearable BP offering through its global retail and mobile channel.
- Apple: Apple Watch has introduced blood pressure monitoring features and represents the largest potential consumer wearable-BP competitor. Broad incumbent whose scale, distribution, and consumer mindshare could overshadow Sky Labs' CART BP if Apple adds clinical-grade cuffless BP.
- Huawei: Huawei smartwatches include blood pressure monitoring features (notably in China/Asia). Comparable broad incumbent consumer wearable player with health-monitoring ambitions overlapping with Sky Labs' CART BP in Asia-Pacific markets.
