Annuvia

What Annuvia does

Annuvia is a US national provider of workplace emergency preparedness services, combining American Heart Association-certified CPR/AED and First Aid training with the Arch AED Medical Direction & Oversight software platform and AED hardware distribution. The company operates primarily as a B2B services business serving enterprises, schools, public agencies, and small businesses that need OSHA-compliant training and AED program management. Training is delivered on-site at client locations by active ER physicians, paramedics, firefighters, EMTs, and critical care nurses, with pricing quoted per engagement based on group size and geography.

Arch is Annuvia's central technology asset: a cloud-based AED program management platform that automates state-compliant physician oversight, registers AED units with the nearest 911/PSAP and EMS agencies via a proprietary geo-coordinate algorithm, runs SMS-based readiness checks, integrates e-commerce for replacement batteries and pads, and supports post-use event reporting including ECG download and physician review. It is positioned as the anchor recurring-revenue and stickiness layer around the otherwise transactional training and hardware business.

Revenue is generated across four streams: on-site CPR/AED/First Aid training (quote-based, multi-year enterprise contracts), Arch AED medical direction subscriptions (annual, scaling from one to 1,000+ units), AED unit resale across Defibtech, Physio Control, Philips, HeartSine, and Zoll (~ average $1,300 per unit), and AED accessories and supplies via integrated e-commerce. Annuvia operates as a brand owned by Cardio Partners, Inc., with headquarters in the San Francisco Bay Area and a corporate/operations office in Dublin, Ohio, and delivers training through a national field-sales motion across more than 40 US cities.

Direct peers

• AED Superstore: Major online retailer of AEDs, accessories, and supplies serving business and consumer markets. Directly comparable on the hardware distribution side of Annuvia's business, including bundled program management offerings.
• EMS Safety Services: National CPR/AED/First Aid and bloodborne pathogen training company serving enterprise and small business customers. Closely comparable in core curriculum, certification delivery, and OSHA-compliance go-to-market.
• ProTrainings: Online and blended CPR/AED/First Aid certification provider targeting individuals and small businesses. Comparable in certification offerings and pricing model, with a more digital delivery approach that pressures traditional on-site training economics.
• Health & Safety Institute (HSI): Major CPR/AED/First Aid training provider serving workplaces and individuals with blended learning. Directly comparable in target market (business compliance training) and product mix (training + AED program management), making it one of the closest competitive analogs.
• American Red Cross Training Services: Largest direct competitor in CPR/First Aid/AED training for businesses and individuals. Both organizations offer OSHA-compliant workplace safety training with 2-year certification and compete for enterprise accounts at a national level.
• Code One Training Solutions: CPR/AED/First Aid and BLS training provider serving New England and mid-Atlantic markets with on-site delivery. Comparable in AHA curriculum, instructor-led model, and emphasis on healthcare-professional instructors.
• SureFire CPR: CPR/First Aid/AED and BLS training company focused on California and on-site group classes. Comparable in instructor-led delivery model and AHA-aligned curriculum, though operating at a more regional scale.

Broad incumbents

• American Heart Association: National non-profit that sets CPR/AED training standards and operates its own training centers in addition to authorizing independent training centers like Annuvia. Comparable as a training provider but with unique role as the certifying/curriculum authority that Annuvia depends on.
• ZOLL Medical Corporation: Major AED manufacturer and broader resuscitation/critical care medical device company. Comparable on the hardware side (Annuvia distributes ZOLL AEDs) and increasingly competes on the software/program management layer with its own AED program solutions.

Others

• Cardio Partners: Parent company of Annuvia and a broader distributor of AEDs, CPR supplies, and emergency preparedness products. Adjacent/parent relationship rather than competitive, but relevant as the corporate vehicle through which Annuvia's strategic and capital decisions flow.
