Sonde Health recognized for achievements in vocal biomarker technology

Sonde Health, a leading vocal biomarker technology platform, has been named to CB Insights’ third annual Digital Health 150, which showcases the 150 most promising private digital health companies in the world. Recipients were chosen based on several factors, including data submitted by the companies, company business models and momentum in the market, and Mosaic scores, CB Insights’ proprietary algorithm that measures the overall health and growth potential of private companies.

“This recognition is a testament to the growth Sonde has experienced in 2021, from expanding our product portfolio with the launch of our Mental Fitness product to partnering with Qualcomm to integrate our technology into their Snapdragon™ 8 Gen 1 and 778G 5G mobile platforms,” said David Liu, CEO of Sonde Health. “In 2022 we will continue to form new strategic partnerships to accelerate and scale the delivery of vocal biomarker technology to an even broader user base.”

The 2021 Digital Health 150 cohort has raised roughly $14.9B in aggregate funding across 522 deals since 2016, and includes startups at various investment stages of development, from early-stage to well-funded unicorns. Companies this year include startups working on data integration & analytics, hybrid virtual / in-person care, digital therapeutics, clinical intelligence, and more.

“This year’s Digital Health 150 is one of our most expansive yet, spotlighting 16 categories including virtual care, clinical trials tech, and workflow automation, as well as adding new categories such as home health tech and computer-aided imaging,” said Brian Lee, SVP of CB Insights’ Intelligence Unit. “Last year's class has seen more than 20 exits, raised an additional $18.6B in aggregate funding, and announced over 250 partnerships since being recognized, and we’re excited to see the future success of this year’s winners.”
