It’s official – I'm excited to announce Superpower's $30 million series A from Forerunner and Day One, alongside celebrities Steve Aoki, actress Vanessa Hudgens, NBA star Giannis Antetokounmpo, and existing investors Cyan Bannister, Shaan Puri, Balaji, Arielle Zuckerberg and many more. This funding accelerates our vision for what health can look like in the AI era. Proactive, preventative, performance enhancing. In the world's first health super app. Giving you the power of all your data and the world's health information, so you can control your health, for life.

@maxmarchione 🤣 dead

Breaking: Superpower is acquiring Hims. Half cash. Half stock.

12.4% of US adults are on a GLP-1s. It was 5.8% in Feb 2024. It doubled in 18 months. The global anti-obesity market is projected to grow from $19.6B today to $104.9B in 2035. This is the fastest mainstream drug adoption of our lifetime.

@SECGov, this is obviously a joke btw

@fastrlife Primary care and preventative doctors will go away or be behavior change agents. Surgery and specialists needing to operate physical equipment will still exist

@maxmarchione Real talk, What do you see happening to doctors over the next 10 years?

We are living through the disruption of healthcare in real time. Every industry gets disrupted the same way. It starts when only the rich can afford it and only experts can use/deliver it (e.g. telephones, air travel, computers) Then technology changes everything: - It lowers cost - Improves and standardizes quality - Makes it accessible to everyone A few examples of this throughout history: - NY to London call used to cost $300 for 3 min in 1930, and is now free. - Cross-country flight cost $4,400 in the 1940s, today it's $120. - A 1980 computer used to cost $10M, now you get your iPhone for $1K, which is 1000x more powerful. Healthcare is now on the same trajectory. - The cost of sequencing a human genome dropped from $100M to less than $100 in about 25 years - Full-body MRI used to be hospital-only, now you can get it for $500. - Blood panel went from $500 to $30. - CGM was prescription-only, now $70/month. The gates always fall.

superpower is built for exactly the world Max is describing upload your data, run frontier diagnostics, get real therapeutics, and let AI do the work this is what healthcare looks like when it's built for the individual

@m_goes_distance working on it 🫡

@maxmarchione superpower to the rescue you say?

I wrote why I think this is the best time in human history to be alive and care about your health. Cheap diagnostics, AI reasoning, and peptides... 3 layers of medicine moving toward people at once, for the first time ever. This one has been a while in the making, enjoy!

a fantastic piece by my cofounder @maxmarchione from a first-principles perspective, the old healthcare model is broken. it's reactive, slow, and built for averages none of those constraints now hold autonomous health is the only viable answer

@txmedai We have really great outcomes data! Self funded employers are covering

@maxmarchione Thats probably tough if you define it tradirionally

i asked our designer for more flywheels. i got a flywheel in a flywheel 🙃

@hannah_ahn lol

meta now has meta stores, and frankly, it’s very well done

@JohnTheHangman1 1mg per week

@maxmarchione Mind sharing what you view as a microdose?

I microdose retatrutide for focus. On reta, I barely think about food. Food-related willpower is a tax on the rest of your life, and you don't realize how much cognitive bandwidth it consumes until it's gone.

@beffjezos 1mg per week

@maxmarchione What's a "micro dose" for you?
