Altoida

Series A in 2022
Altoida AG, founded in 2016 and based in Lucerne, Switzerland, specializes in developing a healthcare platform and application aimed at Alzheimer’s patients. The company's flagship product, the Altoida iPad-based application, is the first validated solution on the market designed to predict the risk of Alzheimer’s Disease before symptoms appear, functioning as a computational biomarker. The application employs the Neuro Motor Index (NMI), which measures subtle micro-errors and micro-movements during everyday tasks, allowing for early detection of cognitive decline up to six years prior to the onset of typical neurodegenerative symptoms. The NMI test is intended for use by healthcare professionals as an adjunctive tool and is not a stand-alone diagnostic method. Altoida's medical device is classified as an FDA Class II medical device and CE marked as Class I, enabling early screening for Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and monitoring cognitive function. After a brief testing period, healthcare providers receive real-time access to comprehensive patient reports via a secure, HIPAA-compliant web dashboard, making cognitive health assessments more affordable and accessible.
