Oura Acquires Veri to Enhance Metabolic Health Tracking
The acquisition aims to integrate continuous glucose monitoring and personalized health insights into Oura's platform.
- Oura has acquired Helsinki-based metabolic health startup Veri, which uses continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) to track meals and glucose levels.
- This acquisition marks Oura's second major purchase, following its acquisition of digital identification tech company Proxy in May 2023.
- 97% of Oura users are interested in understanding how nutrition affects their health, with 13% having already used CGMs.
- Veri's platform will be integrated into Oura's health suite by the end of 2024, with a transition plan in place for existing Veri users.
- The FDA's recent clearance of over-the-counter CGMs is expected to increase accessibility and awareness of glucose and metabolic health.
