Physical Therapy Driven by AI Hinge Health, founded in 2012, described its AI-driven approach to physical therapy in the prospectus: “Hinge Health leverages software, including AI, to largely automate care for joint and muscle health, delivering an outstanding member experience, improved member outcomes, and cost reductions for our clients. We have designed our platform to address a broad spectrum of musculoskeletal care – also known as MSK care — from acute injury to chronic pain to post-surgical rehabilitation. (Note: MSK care stands for musculoskeletal care.)  “Members receive personalized and largely automated MSK care through our AI-powered motion tracking technology and a proprietary electrical nerve stimulation wearable device, all designed and monitored by our AI-supported care team of licensed physical therapists, physicians, and board-certified health coaches. Our platform can improve pain and function and reduce the need for surgeries, all while driving health equity by allowing members to engage in their exercise therapy sessions from anywhere and embrace movement as a way of life.” Hinge Health’s clients are mostly self-insured employers in the private sector – including about 42 percent of the Fortune 500 companies as of Dec. 31, 2024 – and in  the public sector – including state and local governments and labor unions. As of Feb. 1, 2025, Hinge Health said its partners “increased to include the five largest national health plans based on self-insured lives,” according to the prospectus. Hinge Health is not profitable. For the 12 months that ended Dec. 31, 2024, Hinge Health reported a net loss of $11.9 million on revenue of $390.4 million.
