Technology Due Diligence on Floy’s Approach to Use AI To Detect Health Anomalies

Floy, a Health Tech Startup headquartered in Munich, is pioneering the use of AI to enhance the diagnostic capabilities of radiologists. In Germany alone, 25 million CT and MR scans are conducted annually, each containing valuable yet often unused data and information. Leveraging AI technology, Floy helps doctors to extract additional insights for early disease detection from these scans. Floy asserts that it has secured a 14 percent share of the German radiology market within just two years since its inception, seeing this as a testament that they identified a crucial need to address. The business model revolves around Floy collaborating with radiologists to provide their AI as a self-pay service directly to patients.

Philipps & Byrne conducted a thorough examination of the technology and product aspects at Floy. This encompassed a detailed scrutiny of the tech leadership and team, product management, tech stack, and architecture, as well as hosting and infrastructure. Additionally, we assessed processes related to quality assurance, security, compliance, and privacy. The findings from our assessment were put together in a detailed report, giving the investors a solid understanding of the risks and opportunities, while also helping Floy as they continue to grow by providing a set of actionable recommendations.
