Spotify goes prevention, or the consumerization of health care.
Neko Health's AI-powered body scan is making waves as celebrities line up for the £300 check-up at its new London branch. I think these technologies are about enhancing healthcare, not replacing it — complementing public systems with early, accessible diagnostics.

Spotify goes prevention, or the consumerization of health care.
Neko Health has been all over the news since the Swedish startup founded in 2018 by Spotify founder Daniel Ek has opened a new London branch, and celebrities are lining up for the GBP 300 scan.
Other expensive scanning approaches have been launched by longevity approaches like France's Zoï, and are popping up all over the globe.
Most probably, AI-powered body scans like Neko Health aren't about replacing traditional healthcare—they're about enhancing it. These technologies can complement public systems by offering early, accessible diagnostics that reduce the burden on overworked doctors and hospitals.
It will be interesting to watch this space. Would love to hear your thoughts.
