Pre-Seed Investment Opportunity

The UK's First Sensor-Validated Virtual Rehabilitation Clinic

Verada.Health exists to make quality rehabilitation accessible — so every patient gets the right care, at the right intensity, when they need it. When that happens, patients recover. And patients who recover don't become claimants, don't churn, and don't create liability. We deliver this across MSK and neurological pathways, with sensor-validated assessment that makes clinical decisions defensible.

01 — The Problem

Five Crises Breaking UK Rehabilitation

The same systemic failures cost the NHS billions in liability and cost private providers their competitive edge. What the public sector experiences as infrastructure collapse, the private sector experiences as commercial erosion. Here is how each crisis manifests across both MSK and neurological pathways.

£26bn
The cost of 300,000 patients waiting, not healing.
£26bn
The cost of 85,000 survivors missing their window.
£60bn
The cost when recovery fails — and patients seek accountability.
£60bn
NHS Clinical Negligence Liability These five crises collectively drive the single largest unfunded threat to ICB solvency. Each crisis card above shows how it contributes to this cumulative cost.

This liability doesn't accumulate because of missing paperwork — it accumulates because patients aren't recovering. The clinical capability to change that exists. What's missing is a delivery partner that can make quality rehabilitation accessible at population scale, across care settings, for both MSK and neurological pathways.

02 — The Solution

Virtual Rehabilitation Clinic

Verada.Health is building the UK's first virtual rehabilitation clinic — a delivery partner that absorbs patient load from NHS trusts, private clinics, insurers, and employers. We exist to ensure every patient gets the right attention, at the right intensity, at the right time. The sensors make that possible. The platform makes it scalable. The outcome — patients who actually recover — is what eliminates claims, stops revenue leakage, and reduces provider burden.

01
Problem

The £60bn problem starts with one patient who didn't recover.

Every claim traces back to a failure because of atleast one of those five crises. Patients who wait too long, miss their treatment window, or receive subtherapeutic intensity don't recover. And unrecovered patients seek accountability.

02
Insight

Patients who get objective attention recover. Patients who recover don't sue.

Objective attention means sensor-validated assessment, verified treatment intensity, and continuous monitoring across settings. When patients get what they actually need — not what time constraints allow — they recover.

03
Solution

We deliver objective attention. Recovery follows. Claims don't.

Verada.Health is building a virtual rehabilitation clinic that absorbs demand providers can't meet alone — designed towards CQC-registration, deploying sensor-validated care across MSK and neuro pathways, at population scale.

Defensible Advantages

What makes this difficult to replicate

🔒

Exclusive UK License — Pheezee

Exclusive distribution rights for Startoon Labs' EMG/ROM technology in the UK market. Competitors cannot access this device without renegotiating directly with the manufacturer.

🤝

Preferred UK Partnership — SynPhNe

Preferred partner status with SynPhNe Pte Ltd for neurorehab deployment. First-mover relationship in a market with very few EEG-EMG biofeedback options.

🔀

Dual-Pathway Integration

No competitor offers both MSK and neurorehab from a single service model. This means one referral relationship, one contract, one data trail — for providers managing both patient populations.

🏥

Delivery Partner Model

We absorb patient load, not just license software. Designed to meet CQC registration standards — enabling direct NHS referrals and positioning as a qualified clinical partner, not a vendor.

02.1 — Patient Journey

Three Care Settings, One Continuous Thread

The patient's recovery journey spans three distinct settings, but the data thread remains unbroken. This continuity is what bridges the 7-day cliff-edge and ensures therapeutic intensity is maintained from specialist ward to patient home.

03.1 — The Commercial Case

For NHS Commissioners & Insurers

These aren't expensive medical gadgets. They're financial firewalls against macro-economic collapse. Here's how Verada addresses the three crises that threaten ICB solvency and insurer exposure.

The Crisis
The Data Point
Verada Delivers
The Fiscal Impact
The Backlog

300,000 patients waiting, not healing

£26bn annual MSK burden

Every day in queue = condition chronicises

Remote Triage & Monitoring

One clinician monitors 50 patients. Pheezee flags who needs escalation now vs who can safely continue home therapy.

Accelerates return-to-work

Reduces productivity loss and prevents condition progression to permanent disability

The Window

85,000 survivors missing neuroplasticity

£26bn lifetime neuro burden

Missed window = permanent care dependency

Window Expansion

SynPhNe starts brain-muscle retraining while patients wait for clinic slots. Captures recovery signals standard care misses.

Converts liability to recovery

10% return to independent living = billions saved in social care

The Liability

Diagnostic error is the #1 cause of claims

£60bn NHS negligence liability

Subjective notes lose cases

Clinical Black Box

Automated, timestamped sensor records. Every anomaly flagged, every clinical response documented.

Defensible position

Objective evidence replaces "he said, she said" in tribunal

⚖️

The Bolam Defence — Rewritten

By deploying Verada, you establish a new gold standard for the Bolam Test. You replace subjective notes — which lose cases — with objective, timestamped evidence. You're not just healing patients; you're insuring the Trust against the most expensive categories of clinical error.

04 — Business Model

Multiple Revenue Streams Across Healthcare Settings

Verada operates as a B2B2C virtual care facility, generating revenue through a combination of per-episode payments, platform subscriptions, device leasing, and outcome-based commissioning. This diversified model reduces dependency on any single payer type while aligning incentives with clinical outcomes.

Per-Episode Payment
£50–100
Revenue generated for each completed patient pathway, from initial assessment through discharge. Aligns payment with care delivery and creates predictable unit economics for capacity planning.
Platform Subscription
£2–5K/month
Monthly platform access fee per clinical site, including clinician dashboard, patient app, telehealth integration, and outcome analytics. Scales with deployment footprint.
Device Leasing
£200–500/month
Per-device monthly lease for Pheezee and SynPhNe hardware units, including maintenance, calibration, and replacement coverage. Reduces upfront capital barrier for clinical sites.
Outcome-Based Commissioning
Premium
Value-based contracts where payment is tied to measurable clinical outcomes such as functional improvement scores, return-to-work metrics, or readmission reduction. Premium pricing for demonstrated results.
04.1 — Go-to-Market Strategy

3
24–36 months

International Expansion

Enter US market via pre-seed investor network and SynPhNe Health Inc. subsidiary relationship. Leverage FDA-cleared device status for accelerated market entry. Explore EU markets with CE/UKCA pathway alignment.

Target: US market entry
05 — Regulatory Pathway

Established Route for International Medical Devices

Our sensor hardware partners have already achieved regulatory clearance in major markets. Pheezee holds regulatory approval in India with over 200 clinical installations and 11,000 patients assessed. SynPhNe is FDA-cleared in the United States and approved in Singapore for stroke and TBI rehabilitation. For UK market entry, we are pursuing the standard MHRA clinical investigation pathway, the established route for international medical devices entering the British market.

Q3
26

MHRA Clinical Investigation Application

Formal regulatory engagement with the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency, initiating the UK clinical evidence generation process with approved international devices.

Q4
26

CQC Registration Completed

Care Quality Commission registration enables Verada.Health to deliver regulated clinical services in England, a prerequisite for NHS and insurer contracting.

Q1
27

Research Ethics Committee Approval

REC approval authorises commencement of formal clinical investigation, enabling peer-reviewable UK outcomes data collection.

Q4
27

UK Clinical Evidence Published

Peer-reviewed publication of UK clinical outcomes data, establishing evidence base for NHS procurement and insurance reimbursement discussions.

Q1
28

UKCA Marking Application

Submission for UK Conformity Assessed marking, the regulatory pathway to full UK market authorisation based on accumulated clinical evidence.

Why This De-Risks the Investment

Our pre-revenue status reflects a deliberate regulatory pathway rather than execution failure. The 18-month runway is specifically sized for the pre-commercial evidence generation phase that medical device market entry requires. Partner devices are already proven safe and effective in international markets with thousands of patients assessed. Published UK clinical outcomes will create a significant competitive moat at commercial launch, as competitors would need to replicate the entire evidence generation process to match our regulatory position.

06 — Financial Projections

Five-Year Path to Profitability

The financial model reflects a phased rollout beginning with private sector deployment, expanding to NHS contracting, and scaling through international market entry. EBITDA positive by Year 2 with accelerating margins as platform economics take effect.
