Israel’s Olive Diagnostics Receives European CE Mark for its Cutting Edge AI-based Urine Analysis

Olive Diagnostics, an IoMT MedTech startup that uses AI for passive urine analysis, announced that it has received the CE Mark in Europe for the Olive KG, the world's first hands-free, non-invasive, AI-based optical device for passive and seamless urinalysis, which mounts on any toilet. The continuous monitoring nature of Olive Diagnostics' device alerts users to pre-symptomatic issues, sometimes weeks before symptoms and the appearance of conditions including urinary tract infection (UTI) and kidney stones. When the risk of a condition like UTI is flagged, prophylactics can be administered, a capability which may reduce the likelihood of hospitalizations. For men, kidney stones can be detected weeks before the onset of painful symptoms so that they can easily be treated before hospitalization is required. This makes the startup's device a critically important tool for the elderly, where early detection can improve the quality of life and level of care. Guy Goldman, CEO of Olive Diagnostics stated: "The milestone of receiving the CE Marking provides validation for our vision and technology and paves the way for us to enter the European market."
Olive Diagnostics was founded in 2019 by Guy Goldman (CEO) and Corey Katz. To date, the company has raised over $13 million and are headquartered in Jerusalem.
