Bevel’s co-founder grew tired of juggling separate apps for sleep, workouts and food. Turns out, so is everyone else. The “AI for human potential” startup says its user base has grown eightfold in the past year
Bevel wants to make sense of the growing flood of health data and just raised $10 million in Series A funding to do it.
The round was led by global investment firm General Catalyst, which also participated in Bevel’s seed raise in February. The new capital will help the New York-based startup scale its team and accelerate development of its AI-driven health platform, with plans to expand into new services and partnerships.
The funding follows Bevel’s launch of glucose-tracking integrations with Dexcom and Libre and the debut of Bevel Intelligence, an AI engine that connects users’ behaviors across sleep, fitness and nutrition to drive better outcomes. The platform also syncs with Apple Watch, Apple Health and Garmin devices, with additional partnerships in development, the company said.
As Bevel co-founder and CEO Grey Nguyen noted on LinkedIn this week, Bevel’s journey has moved quickly since its 2023 launch from a small prototype to a platform now helping hundreds of thousands of people pursue their health goals. Bevel officially launched its app last summer after first building a following on Reddit, where Nguyen regularly shared updates about the product’s evolution and long-term vision.
“There’s more data about us than ever, from wearables to lab results to all the different apps we use, but most of it lives in silos,” he wrote on LinkedIn. “One app for sleep, another for workouts, another for food. But your health doesn’t work in pieces. It’s one connected system.”
Nguyen described Bevel as an “intelligent operating system for health,” developed to bring together data from wearables, lab results and daily habits into one connected platform.
It’s an approach that appears to be resonating, addressing a clear pain point in an era of data overload. According to Bevel, its user base has grown more than eightfold over the past year to more than 100,000 daily active users, with 90-day retention above 80%. The startup also counts advisors spanning science and sport, including two-time Olympic gold medalist Ashton Eaton and Dr. Jordan Weiss of NYU Grossman School of Medicine.
“Healthcare should be proactive, affordable and accessible to everyone,” General Catalyst managing director Neeraj Arora said. “Bevel’s mission to democratize health through intelligence and design deeply resonates with us. The level of engagement they’re seeing from users is remarkable, and it’s become part of people’s daily lives—not just another app.”
