History

In 2014, Pathway Genomics, the company’s predecessor, announced a partnership with IBM Watson Group. This collaboration led to the development of a mobile application, named OME, which uses IBM Watson’s technology to offer users personalized health and wellness information based on their health history.

In January 2019, Pathway Genomics was acquired by OME Wellness, which subsequently rebranded the company as OME Care.
