Grasshopper Health is advancing a new standard of care that begins with research and extends to each stage of the healthcare journey. We are built for the clinicians who guide care, the patients experiencing it and the institutions supporting its delivery.
Grasshopper began its journey in close partnership with clinicians who needed continuous, real-world visibility into preventable change. The Axis Patch™ and Motus™ Platform were designed to help providers recognize meaningful shifts in gait sooner and support more informed care decisions.
Our software integrates seamlessly into existing technology, delivering actionable gait metrics with minimal operational burden. Prescribing and monitoring is intended to be simple, intuitive and allow providers to track patients over time to identify changes that may need further evaluation.
The Axis Patch™ is well-suited for individuals at risk for or living with Peripheral Artery Disease, Parkinson’s, Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus, Alzheimer’s and other mobility-related conditions, offering a new of layer of insight from the very first step.
Gait is a powerful and underused indicator to identify risk of neurological, vascular and cognitive health conditions earlier. We support health systems, clinics and research organizations seeking to improve outcomes through continuous functional monitoring.
Our platform integrates seamlessly into existing technology and Electronic Health Record systems (EHRs), enabling scalable deployment across departments and programs. Built on rigorous standards for security and compliance, Grasshopper is fully encrypted, HIPAA-compliant and designed to meet the expectations of clinical, operational and IT teams alike.
Grasshopper’s story began in research labs, inspired by early discoveries that showed how gait could reveal neurological, vascular and cognitive change long before symptoms become obvious.
Grasshopper continues to support researchers exploring how gait provides an early window into the development of several life-changing conditions. As our research programs and markets expand, we’re building pathways for collaboration, multisite studies and governed data access that enables secure, compliant use.
Are you a researcher interested in clinical trials or in learning more about the promising data we’ve collected? Join the many clinicians across the country currently helping to advance gait as the sixth vital sign.
Grasshopper was designed with patients and families in mind, offering a simple, comfortable way to monitor health and help individuals get on the right track to early treatment. Our lightweight patch is worn comfortably on the lower back and captures movement naturally throughout daily tasks, with no technical expertise or behavioral change required.
With continuous gait analysis, patients get peace of mind knowing changes that may otherwise go unnoticed are being properly captured, with the results sent to their care team for additional discussion, study and potentially even diagnosis. For caregivers, we offer real, raw data that makes it easier to understand changes and advocate for your people.
Wondering about your data security? Patient data is always encrypted, protected and shared only with approved providers. It is never sold or shared with third parties.
Our partners span from leading academic medical centers and rehabilitation hospitals to national foundations and patient advocacy groups, each bringing a unique lens to understanding human movement. Together, we’re discovering what’s possible for earlier treatment through gait monitoring and grounding decisions in continuous, real-world data with the hope of extending this impact to many life-changing diseases.
These collaborations advance research, strengthen clinical insight and open new gateways for earlier detection and more personalized care. By supporting these organizations who study, innovate and advocate for better care, we’re helping create a future where everyday movement becomes a powerful indicator for healthier years ahead.
