Tetsuyu Healthcare

What Tetsuyu Healthcare does

Tetsuyu Healthcare Holdings Pte Ltd is a Singapore-based healthtech startup founded in 2019 that builds a suite of cloud-based care management applications targeting the Intermediate and Long Term Care (ILTC) sector — nursing homes, community hospitals, home care providers, and residential care facilities. Its core product is the CARES platform, a multi-site, multi-disciplinary care management system with teleconsulting, chat, video, and screen sharing, complemented by module applications: CARES4WOUNDS (AI-enabled wound imaging and assessment, including the C4W-B hardware device with CE Mark and HSA Class A registration), CARES4CAREGIVERS (care task management mobile app), and CARES@AAC (augmentative and alternative communication support).

The wound care technology is the company's technical centerpiece. CARES4WOUNDS applies computer vision to perform automated wound measurement, tissue classification, and early infection detection via AWOMA (Automated Wound Management AI), co-developed with I2R at A*STAR and validated in peer-reviewed studies with TTSH, St Luke's Hospital, and the University of Tokyo. Documented productivity claims include 2.75x time efficiency in wound monitoring, 11x faster wound assessment documentation, and reduction of per-wound evaluation from 8 minutes to 1 minute at Ren Ci Hospital. The company holds ISO 13485:2016, CE Mark (EU Class I), HSA Class A (Singapore), CSA Cyber Essentials Mark, and Astra Pentest A+ certifications.

Tetsuyu monetizes through a mix of annual SaaS subscriptions for CARES and module applications, hardware sales of the C4W-B imaging device, and professional services for implementation. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Distribution is direct enterprise sales with a 'Book a Demo' model, augmented by channel partnerships with NCSS (Tech-and-GO! Funding program) and AIC (Community Care Digital Transformation Plan). The company is founder-led by Co-founder and Managing Director Ng Li Lian, appears to be founder-owned with no disclosed venture capital backing, and operates across Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, and the EU.
