Renovia Inc. was a Boston-based healthcare company founded in 2016, focused on developing prescription digital therapeutics for pelvic floor disorders. The company aimed to enhance the lives of women suffering from conditions such as stress, mixed, and urgent urinary incontinence, including overactive bladder. Renovia's innovative device provided a clinically proven, non-surgical, drug-free treatment option, allowing for real-time visualization of pelvic movement during muscle training, thereby facilitating effective therapy. However, in late 2022, Renovia ceased operations following a strategic review by its investors, which included the consideration of a potential sale. In January 2023, most of the company's assets, including its intellectual property, were acquired by Axena Health, Inc.
