About Semeia

Sêmeia is a French health-tech company founded in 2017 by Daniel Szeftel, Pierre Hornus (CEO), and Mathieu Godart (CTO). The company is headquartered in Paris, with its research and development team located in Toulouse, a move influenced by the region's strong healthcare and AI ecosystem. Sêmeia specializes in developing remote medical monitoring solutions for patients with serious or chronic illnesses. The company's core offering is MedicWise, a digital medical device platform that uses artificial intelligence to collect and analyze patient data in real-time. This allows healthcare professionals to monitor patients remotely, identify those at highest risk of complications, treatment cessation, or re-hospitalization, and intervene at the most critical moments. The system automates the collection of health data, including biological analysis, from various sources like connected devices and health insurance reimbursement data, presenting it on a dashboard for care teams. This process helps to save medical teams valuable time by reducing unnecessary hospital visits. Sêmeia's solutions are applied across several therapeutic areas, with a leading presence in nephrology through its NephroWise product. Other specialized applications include MentalWise (mental health), OncoWise (oncology), and ImmunoWise (autoimmune diseases), with plans to expand into stroke and diabetes care. The company serves clients such as industrial players in the health sector, scientific societies, and the French National Health Insurance (Assurance Maladie). The company has secured significant funding to support its growth. After an initial funding round in 2020, Sêmeia raised approximately €8 million ($8.28M) in a Series B round in December 2022. Key investors include Orange Ventures, Malakoff Humanis, and Banque des Territoires. In a strategic move to consolidate its market position, Sêmeia also acquired competitor Optim'Care in December 2022.
