Company profile
researched Aug 2026Azumio Inc. is a Palo Alto, California-based mobile and digital health company founded in 2011 by Peter Kuhar, Bojan Bostjancic and Tom Xu. It publishes biometric health applications and services for mobile devices that use built-in smartphone sensors — the camera for pulse detection, the accelerometer for sleep-phase analysis, and image recognition for food logging — rather than dedicated wearable hardware. According to Wikipedia, the company has released 24 apps on iOS, 5 on Android and 3 on Windows Phone, and works with clinical research scientists at Stanford University and the University of California, San Francisco.
Its consumer portfolio includes Instant Heart Rate (a camera-based heart rate monitor released in October 2010), Fitness Buddy (launched July 16, 2011, with an exercise library of 1,700 exercises, instructional videos and a custom workout builder), Glucose Buddy (released October 2011 to digitize paper diabetes logs, with syncing to a desktop web portal and exportable graphs), Sleep Time (released March 28, 2012, a sleep-phase alarm clock and sleep analyzer that syncs with Apple Health), Argus (launched July 1, 2013 as the company's largest app, aggregating data from Instant Heart Rate, Sleep Time, Fitness Buddy and Instant Fitness into a single timeline with pedometer, calorie counting and nutrition tracking), Instant Fitness and Calorie Mama AI. Argus added a health-oriented social network in December 2013 and a News Feed plus Discover section in April 2014; Instant Heart Rate added monthly aggregated Insight Reports in October 2014.
The company now also markets business-facing solutions on its website: Food Recognition AI for deep-learning food and nutrition tracking, the Azumio 360 API for diet, fitness and sleep data, an Instant Diabetes Test described as a digital biomarker for Type 2 diabetes trained with AI algorithms, and Meal IQ for feedback on how foods affect blood glucose.
