Conceive, a NYC-based digital health platform focused on fertility, raised $3.7m in seed funding.
The round was led by Kindred Ventures, with participation from Founder Collective, Great Oaks, and 40+ founders and angels.
The company intends to use the funds to continue to expand operations and its business reach.
Led by Lauren Berson, Founder and CEO, Conceive aims to improve health outcomes by helping people become pregnant faster, reduce costs, and uncover diagnoses. Its outcomes-based health platform – designed by tech executives from WW (formerly Weight Watchers), Omada Health, MasterClass, a16z, and health providers from Cornell and CCRM – combines three key elements — cohort-based community, evidence-based education, and 1:1 coaching — into a holistic program that helps members navigate and accelerate their fertility journey.
Applications to join the public beta are now open nationwide. When members join Conceive, they complete an onboarding questionnaire that helps to match them with the best peer group for their needs. Members meet once a week for 60-minute sessions, with access to their peer group and 1:1 coaching throughout the journey. They also get access to evidence-based resources to accelerate their paths to building a family. The program is eight weeks long, and costs $549; scholarships are available for those who can’t afford it.
Later this year, Conceive also plans to launch additional fertility offerings for men, LGBTQ+ partners, and patients pursuing egg freezing.
