Zemi is driven by a commitment to innovation, research, and impact. We are scientists, engineers, and entrepreneurs united by a vision to redefine wearable health.
Understanding how to treat the body starts with listening to what it’s trying to tell us.
With most wearables, it’s like you’re trying to understand an orchestra by only listening to the percussion. What you hear is real, but you’re still missing most of the performance. Zemi was born out of a desire to capture more of that song.
The goal was straightforward: to create a product capable of reliably listening to the body’s electrical activity and using it to better inform research and personalized care.
In 2021, John Toribio, set out to not just create this product, but to create a truly scalable platform. In 2022, John met Kyle Mahoney, who shared his passion for bridging the gap between science, technology, and entrepreneurship. Together, we founded Zemi Labs Inc. in 2023, dedicated to developing the Zemi Platform—a fresh approach to wearable health monitoring.
