About HealthLeap

No patient who can be helped should go unseen.

HealthLeap was started by a dietitian and her brother to build exactly that: a safety net that catches the patients the system would otherwise miss.

Why we started HealthLeap

Built by a dietitian and her brother.

Jemima Meyer spent her career as a clinical dietitian watching patients fall through the cracks, reached too late or not at all. So she built NutriLeap, a simple tool to help her colleagues get to the right patients faster. It worked, and it spread among dietitians. But Jemima wanted to reach the patients no single dietitian ever could.

She partnered with her brother Josiah, who had been building companies since he was a teenager. Raised by missionary parents to serve the many, not just the few, they set out to turn one dietitian's tool into a safety net for every patient a hospital might miss.

What we believe

  • The gap is operational reality, not data.

    Hospitals aren't short on information. They're short, every day, on the people, tools, and time to act in time.

  • Software should do the reading. Clinicians should do the caring.

    We built HealthLeap to carry the impossible reading task so clinical teams can spend their judgment where it counts.

  • Earn trust with evidence, not adjectives.

    We publish our work, submit it to peer review, and put our own money at risk on the outcome.

  • Prove it, then expand.

    We identify the gaps with you, build your next condition, validate it against the clinical standard, and show the impact.

What we're building

We started with malnutrition because it's where a dietitian first saw the gap, and where we could prove the approach against the clinical standard. But “the many” was never going to stop at one condition. The same safety net that catches malnourished patients can catch others the chart already predicts. Malnutrition is the first. It won't be the last.

Our mission

Make sure no patient who could be helped slips through unseen.

The people building it

HealthLeap pairs a clinician who lived the problem with a builder who could turn it into a company, and clinical leaders who keep the work honest to the bedside.
