Pausetiv

What Pausetiv does

Pausetiv S.r.l. is an Italian digital health company headquartered in Milan that operates a telemedicine platform dedicated exclusively to menopause and perimenopause care. Founded in 2024 with 1-10 employees, the company serves women navigating perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause through online video consultations with a curated multidisciplinary network of gynecologists (€120/session), endocrinologists (€120/session), nutritionists (€110/session), and psychological counselors (€60/session), supplemented by multi-session counseling packages (5 sessions €275, 10 sessions €540). The proprietary digital platform (app.pausetiv.com) combines an onboarding health questionnaire, a four-area self-assessment tool called PauseTest covering hormonal health, nutrition, physical activity, and stress/mood, symptom monitoring over time, and personalized treatment plans, all delivered through a self-service patient portal.

The technology stack is deliberately lean: Cal.com powers appointment scheduling and video consultations, Stripe handles payment processing, and the company has not developed proprietary AI or ML capabilities. The platform is built around a clinical protocol validated by a multidisciplinary scientific committee, positioning Pausetiv as a domain-specialist rather than a generalist telehealth provider. A core partnership with Cerba Healthcare Italia extends the offering into diagnostics, offering patients 20% off laboratory analyses and 10% off imaging examinations.

Pausetiv's go-to-market is primarily direct-to-consumer, driven by an educational Italian-language blog, free initial consultation calls, customer testimonials, and earned media coverage in Vanity Fair, Wired, Lifegate, and Quotidiano Nazionale. A secondary B2B motion targets HR departments and employers for workplace menopause wellness programs. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors, funding rounds, or revenue figures, and is supported by an ecosystem of Italian innovation partners including Politecnico di Milano, Innovit, Catch, Startup Valle, Carica 101, and Segie.
