The future of femtech, and Clue

No barriers, no myths, no taboos. That’s the point of femtech. Female health and wellbeing are still under-served: conventional healthcare is great, when it’s available, to fix illness or injury. But too often, it isn’t available. Or there is nothing to fix–just very personal choices to make, changes to understand, experiences to integrate into our life journey–so that outside of conventional healthcare, people still lack knowledge and support. Technology isn't an end in itself. It's a means to solving a human problem. And in female health, these are the problems femtech must solve.

In the years to come, medical-grade femtech will open the door to the resources, care, and emotional support that many people need.

No barriers means universal accessibility. Access to great in-person healthcare is extremely uneven across societies and the world, but more and more people have a smartphone. This is why digital tools are so important. In the years to come, medical-grade femtech will open the door to the resources, care, and emotional support that many people need. Digital tools can leverage data to personalize insights and recognize individual patterns to plot personal paths to better health. And even if an experience is one-in-a-million–and it usually isn’t, even if it feels that way–nobody is alone, but connected to a community. Femtech is on its way to provide personalized care for every individual everywhere.?

Clue is designed to be a straightforward, empathetic and scientific companion throughout your reproductive journey – from menarche to menopause.

No myths, no taboos - knowledge is power. And if we can’t name a thing, we can’t learn about it. We can’t come into our own.
