True Angle (Accelerator)

Company Description: True Angle is a health tech company whose mission is to empower people to live better lives through smart technologies. Our first step in that mission is to help people living with dysphagia, the medical term for swallowing disorders, by empowering them with a remote exercise technology so that instead of being terrified of choking on food, or of needing a feeding tube, they can get back to enjoying meals with their family and friends. To achieve this mission, True Angle took a costly, inconvenient, and inaccessible clinical machine used to treat swallowing disorders, and compacted it into an affordable, convenient, data-driven health@home technology. We called it the Mobili-T – or mobile therapist. The Mobili-T is a patented system that consists of a small wireless sensor that is supported by “smart” software that provides custom exercise targets and feedback, as well as daily adherence tracking, all of which can be shared with a clinician. This pocket-sized technology is empowering people to take charge of their health, rise above their swallowing disorders, and find joy in the life they are living. Our base sensing technology, sEMG, has the potential to be used in many other consumer and health verticals that focus on remote detection of muscle activation.
