Revivant

What Revivant does

Revivant is a privately held medical device company founded in 1997 and based in Sunnyvale, California, that developed automated cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) devices, most notably the patented Autopulse resuscitation system. The Autopulse platform is a load-distributing band chest compression device designed to deliver consistent, automated mechanical CPR for patients in cardiac arrest, intended for use by EMS agencies, hospitals, and emergency response teams.

The firm's historical product portfolio centered on mechanical resuscitation hardware rather than software or AI-driven systems, with the Autopulse representing the core proprietary asset. The company operated with a headcount in the 11–50 employee range, consistent with a focused, single-product-line medical device firm dependent on regulatory clearances and clinical validation for market access.

Multiple signals in the available data indicate the entity is no longer operating as an active independent business. The corporate domain (revivant.com) is listed for sale by Synergy Technologies, LLC, with no company-controlled contact information, no current management team disclosure, no product catalog, no certifications, no funding history, and no customer references. The company is therefore best characterized as a legacy medical device entity whose technology and brand appear to have been absorbed or discontinued, with no verifiable current revenue, distribution, or operating footprint in the source material.

Direct peers

• Defibtech: Specialist AED and resuscitation device manufacturer serving EMS, public access, and military markets. Comparable niche-focus, distribution channels, and customer base to Revivant's historical positioning.
• Cardiac Science: Focused on AEDs and defibrillation products for hospital, EMS, and public access markets. Comparable scale and product category focus to Revivant.
• Stryker (Physio-Control): Markets the LUCAS mechanical chest compression system and LIFEPAK defibrillators, directly competing head-to-head with AutoPulse in EMS and hospital resuscitation. Closest product-for-product comparable to Revivant's historical offering.
• HeartSine Technologies (now part of Stryker): Specialist AED manufacturer (samaritan PAD) serving public access and EMS markets, now under Stryker. Comparable scale, customer profile, and resuscitation-adjacent product positioning to Revivant.

Broad incumbents

• ZOLL Medical Corporation: Acquired the AutoPulse platform from Revivant and remains the dominant U.S. player in mechanical CPR and defibrillation. Direct product overlap with Revivant's historical offering and the most logical acquirer or licensee of any residual Revivant IP.
• Medtronic: Global cardiovascular device leader (ICDs, CRT-Ds) addressing cardiac arrest at the implantable device layer. Provides indirect competitive context for resuscitation and post-arrest care markets.
• Mindray: Large diversified patient monitoring and AED manufacturer with growing presence in the resuscitation device segment. Adjacent competitor in hospitals and EMS where Revivant historically sold.
• Koninklijke Philips (Philips Healthcare): Major AED manufacturer (HeartStart line) and broader patient monitoring / therapeutic device incumbent. Overlaps with Revivant in the cardiac arrest response continuum even though it does not currently sell a mechanical CPR platform.
• Abbott: Major cardiovascular device manufacturer with strong presence in cardiac rhythm management and structural heart. Relevant incumbent in the broader cardiac care ecosystem Revivant historically served.

Emerging players

• Shenzhen XFT Medical: Chinese specialist in portable automated CPR devices and AEDs, increasingly competing in international EMS tenders. Emerging niche peer with comparable mechanical CPR focus.
