A new category in metabolic health.

We are raising a round to build V3, run a 100-person Helsinki beta, and launch on Kickstarter.

We can't tell anymore whether our body actually needs food, or just thinks it does.

We were built for a world that no longer exists.

Then

Stress meant run. Hunger meant find food. The signals were honest.

Now

Stress means deadlines. Food is everywhere. The signals are noise.

This is what your money funds.

01

Build

V3 — one wearable device.

Necklace, wristband, or pocket — user chooses when and what to wear.

10 internal units for the team to develop, iterate, and test.

02

Validate

100 Helsinki beta users.

Requires manufacturing at least 100 MVP units.

60% weight loss ICP · 40% biohackers.

Free device in exchange for structured feedback.

Real bugs. Real environments. Real iteration.

03

Prove

Kickstarter launch.

Public demand signal. Non-dilutive revenue.

We walk into the Seed round with hardware proven, users acquired, and a market that already said yes.

A massive, growing market

The convergence of wearable health tech, metabolic wellness, and AI-driven personalization creates a once-in-a-decade opportunity.

Early feasibility. Encouraging signals.

Before building the product, we ran a preliminary assessment. Here is what we found.

Preliminary Feasibility Assessment

50 individuals interviewed

50 randomly selected individuals were interviewed face-to-face in 10-minute conversations.

“If you received a signal showing how your body is burning fat, how would that affect your motivation?”

Would motivate me a lot — proof of progress32%
Would motivate me somewhat — extra signal49%
No change — already motivated12%
Might demotivate if results fluctuate0%

81% would be more motivated with real-time fat-burning feedback

Built on scalable sensor technology

Our MOS (Metal Oxide Semiconductor) sensors detect a broad range of volatile organic compounds in breath. Metabolic analysis is the starting point. The same sensor technology can be adapted for additional biomarkers as the platform matures.

LIVENOW

Metabolic Analysis

Breath biomarkers linked to fat metabolism → Fat Metabolic Score. Real-time insight into whether your body is burning fat right now, directly from your exhaled breath.

Scalable by design

One platform. Many biomarkers.

MOS sensors are sensitive to a wide spectrum of volatile organic compounds in breath. Fat metabolism is where we start. As the platform matures, the same sensor technology can be adapted to track additional health signals — opening the door to a much broader range of applications.

A different kind of signal

Other breath analyzers measure acetone for keto compliance, or CO₂ as an indirect proxy. Breathome measures acetone as a direct fat metabolism signal — personalized, wearable, and built for everyday weight loss decisions.

Where we are today

Breathome V1 prototype

V1 — First prototype

Initial proof-of-concept, sensor-equipped, functional

Breathome V2 prototype

V2 — Current prototype

Refined form factor, Bluetooth-ready, user-tested

Multiple Breathome V2 units

V2 — Development units

Multiple units built for parallel development and iteration

Hardware

  • Working on V3 pendant — new sensor model selected, replacing the one used in V2.
  • Designing the 3D-printed pendant case to fit the updated components.

Software

  • New app in development — testing usability and user experience.
  • Iterating on the model that predicts fat metabolism from breath readings.
