Company Focus and Core Mission

Kento Health focuses on scaling access to cardiovascular and pulmonary rehabilitation, disease management, and secondary prevention. Traditional cardiac care often relies on episodic clinic visits, leaving gaps where early signs of physical decline or non-adherence go unnoticed. Kento addresses this by combining continuous remote monitoring, artificial intelligence, and dedicated clinical support.

Key Objectives

• Proactive Risk Prevention: Shift cardiology care from reactive crisis management to early detection and preventative micro-adjustments.
• Expanding Care Capacity: Enable health systems to manage significantly larger patient panels without expanding administrative staff.
• Hybrid Accessibility: Provide flexible delivery options spanning facility-based, fully remote, or hybrid cardiopulmonary rehabilitation.
• Reducing Readmissions: Lower 30-day and long-term hospital readmissions through continuous vital tracking and adaptive care plans.

Technology Infrastructure & Platform Architecture

Kento’s platform operates as a two-sided ecosystem connecting patients directly with their extended care team.

1. Kento Patient Mobile App

The Kento Patient App transforms a patient's treatment plan into a simple, daily action routine accessible on iOS and Android devices. Key functional features include: * Adaptive Daily Care Plans: Provides daily tasks including guided exercise sessions, medication schedules, lifestyle recommendations, and symptom logging. * Real-Time Vitals Tracking: Connects with consumer wearables and medical devices to track heart rate, blood pressure, lipid trends, weight, and activity metrics. * Clinical Coaching & Engagement: Paired with dedicated clinical coaches who offer guidance, encouragement, and real-time support. * Photo-Based Nutrition Analysis: Enables patients to log meals by taking a photo, which AI analyzes against the patient's sodium goals, metabolic profile, and clinical history.

2. Kore Clinician Platform

Kore is the backend platform designed for cardiology teams, exercise physiologists, and care coordinators. It streamline clinical workflows through automated data synthesis: * Bidirectional EMR Integration: Integrates with major Electronic Medical Record systems (including Epic), allowing data to push and pull without duplicate entries. * Automated Documentation & ITP Generation: Generates draft Individualized Treatment Plans (ITPs) and automated progress notes, reducing administrative burden for clinicians by up to 80%. * AI Risk Triaging: Continuously screens incoming patient signals (vitals, symptoms, non-adherence) and alerts clinicians to high-risk patients who require immediate intervention. * Clinical Decision Support: Delivers guideline-aligned clinical recommendations and escalation pathways directly into the provider’s daily workflow.

Products, Care Modalities, & Operating Models

Kento Health offers a modular infrastructure allowing health systems to tailor operations according to their IT readiness, staffing levels, and patient demographics.

Flexible Delivery Modalities

• In-Person Facility-Based: Enhances traditional hospital or outpatient clinic visits with digital tracking between appointments.
• Fully Virtual / Home-Based: Allows patients who cannot travel to complete full cardiac or pulmonary rehab programs remotely.
• Hybrid Configurable: Combines scheduled center-based sessions with remote continuous monitoring and home exercise guidance.

Staffing & Service Models

• Tech-Only Software Subscription (SaaS): Health systems use Kento’s software and AI platform integrated into their existing clinical workflow with their own staff.
• Shared Care / Delegated Clinical Model: Health systems can expand their clinical capacity by utilizing Kento’s team of Clinical Exercise Physiologists to handle remote monitoring, coaching, and panel management as an extension of the system's practice.
• Full-Delegated Model: Turnkey operating model where Kento manages the end-to-end continuous care program on behalf of the provider or payer.

Scientific Pillars & Clinical Domains

Kento Health applies evidence-based clinical protocols across five core areas of cardiopulmonary health:

1. Exercise Physiology: Tracks heart-rate recovery, training load, and time spent in target zones to customize physical exertion levels, preventing setbacks while building endurance.
2. Cardiac Nutrition: Evaluates daily dietary intake in relation to clinical factors like medication, sodium guidelines, and metabolic profiles.
3. Blood Pressure & Lipid Management: Correlates real-time blood pressure readings and lipid profiles with exercise, stress, sleep, and medication compliance to surface true baseline drivers.
4. Metabolic Control: Monitors energy balance, weight, and glucose trends holistically to build long-term insulin sensitivity and recovery efficiency.
5. Sleep, Rest, & Stress Tracking: Analyzes Heart Rate Variability (HRV), mood, and sleep quality to evaluate physiological recovery and prevent cardiovascular strain caused by chronic fatigue.

Target Audiences & Value Propositions

For Hospitals & Health Systems

• Increased Revenue: Unlocks billable sessions through Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) and Principal Care Management (PCM), generating direct program returns.
• Clinician Efficiency: Saves clinicians over 5 hours per week by automating routine notes, data entry, and patient triaging.
• Expanded Capacity: Removes physical facility capacity limits, allowing clinics to enroll and retain significantly more referred patients.

For Health Insurers & Payers

• Cost Avoidance: Lowers expensive emergency room visits and hospital readmissions through continuous monitoring and early drift detection.
• Population Health Risk Scoring: Provides real-time visibility into overall cardiovascular risk metrics across insured member populations.

For Patients

• Accessibility: Enables high-quality cardiopulmonary rehabilitation from home without frequent travel.
• Actionable Guidance: Replaces complex medical instructions with clear daily steps and personal coaching support.
• Continuous Reassurance: Gives patients peace of mind knowing their clinical team actively monitors their recovery parameters between visits.
