AIVF is Tel Aviv-based healthtech startup focused on revolutionizing in-vitro fertilization (IVF) through the application of artificial intelligence (AI). The main company's product is EMA software platform.

History

[edit]

AIVF was founded in 2018 in Tel Aviv, Israel, by Daniella Gilboa, a clinical embryologist, and Prof. Daniel Seidman, a reproductive endocrinologist and IVF expert. AIVF aims to improve the success rates of IVF treatments and shorten the time to pregnancy.[1]

In 2019, the company secured financial support from angel investors, venture capital firms, and grants from the Israel Innovation Authority and the European R&D program Eureka.[2][3]

In 2021, AIVF's EMA software received the CE Mark, indicating compliance with European health, safety, and environmental protection standards. The company is also GDPR and HIPAA-compliant, ensuring the privacy and security of patient data.[4][5][6]

In June 2022, AIVF raised $25 million in Series A financing led by Insight Partners, with participation from Adam Neumann's Family Office.[7][8]

Technology

[edit]

AIVF's product is the EMA platform, an AI-powered system that evaluates the viability of embryos during IVF procedures. EMA analyzes biological data from embryos from Day Zero (fertilization) to Day 5 or Day 6, scoring them based on their probability of successful implantation and pregnancy.[9] This technology aims to standardize the embryo evaluation process across clinics, reducing human subjectivity and improving IVF success rates.[10][11][12]

AIVF's EMA platform improved IVF success rates, reducing failed pregnancies and increasing accuracy in embryo selection. The company reports that EMA provides a 38% higher accuracy level compared to evaluations by embryologists alone, with embryos scoring high on EMA demonstrating a 70% probability of successful pregnancy.[13][14][15] The use of EMA has been shown to reduce the number of IVF cycles needed to achieve a fetal heartbeat by over 27.5%.[16][17]

In 2024, AIVF unveiled the first AI-based embryo evaluation for euploidy screening test based on time-lapse videos. This instant non-invasive AI tool successfully refines the genetic quality assessment of embryos in IVF clinics.[18]

AIVF's EMA platform is commercially available across Europe, Australia, Brazil, South Korea and North America. In 2023, the company announced its preparations to launch its platform in the United States.[19]
