Eran Eshed, CEO and Co-founder of Fairtility, cites research showing that 48% of the work done by embyrologists during in-vitro fertilization is administrative. Fairtility was founded to automate this tedious work, which not only makes the embryologist more efficient, but eliminates the many errors caused by manual work.
Furthermore, by taking data from EHRs and incubators—about 2.5 million data points in each pregnancy cycle—Fairtility can analyze the embryos’ viability more accurately than the embryologist. (The embryologist checks results to correct occasional errors.)
Another benefit of Fairtility’s automation is the production of more frequent and richer reports for the prospective parents. Most prospective parents drop out of in-vitro programs after one or two cycles because they find it so stressful. Giving them more information helps keep them engaged. In fact, modern prospective parents in their 20s and 30s expect to receive this data.
