India based health-tech platform, Spry has announced that “It has secured $3 million in series seed round funding led by Together Fund.”
The round also saw participation from Olx co-founder Fabrice Grinda’s VC Firm ‘FJ Labs’, Shutterstock Founder Jon Oringer’s Early-stage VC Firm ‘Pareto’, Knowledge Capital, AngelList, Whiteboard Capital, Innovaccer, and from other investors.
Founded in 2021 by Ola’s ex-CTO, Brijraj Bhuptani, and Riyaz Rehman, Spry aims to democratize the accessibility and affordability of movement health through its full-stack digital health platform. It offers practitioners and business owners of physical therapy centers to manage all their clinical and administrative functions using a single tool. Spry supports all critical functions of the clinic right from scheduling to patient intake and communication, assessments, EMR, home exercise plans, adherence tracking, and patient lifecycle management.
“This funding round will be deployed by Spry to bolster its product development function, expand and strengthen its market share in India, and kick-start its go-to-market (GTM) strategy in the US,” the Startup said.
Speaking on the seed round funding, Brijraj Bhuptani, Co-Founder & CEO of Spry said, “Professional athletes and sportspeople spend enormous amounts on mobility and conditioning to ensure their bodies remain in peak physical condition. Movement health plays a critical role in the overall wellness of every human being, and as such should be accessible to everyone.”
“Everyone deserves to lead a pain-free life and more importantly have the freedom to pursue what they want to be, be it weekend warriors, sports enthusiasts, or even those who want to be fit enough to play with their kids. That was the genesis of Spry,” Bhuptani.
Adding to the statement, he further added, “Our approach to it is reactive, and we only begin taking steps towards treating it when the pain grows too severe to manage. Through Spry, we aim to democratize access to movement health and help people incorporate it into their daily routines rather than opting for it as a quick fix solution.”
Commenting on the investment in Spry, Manav Garg, Managing Director, Together Advisors said, “We believe that movement health is an issue plaguing the world, and Spry’s tech-first approach and the team behind it makes it a forerunner in the space. The founders aren’t new to solving large problems at scale.”
