Vital Signals announced it has raised more than $15 million in funding to support its mission of improving how people understand, engage with, and manage blood pressure and long-term heart health. The investment round was led by XYZ Ventures.
The announcement was made in conjunction with World Hypertension Day, which this year carries the theme “Controlling Hypertension Together.” The company emphasized the global impact of high blood pressure, noting that it remains one of the leading contributors to serious cardiovascular outcomes worldwide.
Founded by technology veteran Tom Moss, Vital Signals is developing technology designed to help consumers better understand blood pressure as an indicator of long-term health. The company said its approach is centered on accuracy, insights, and ease of use.
Moss previously held leadership roles at companies including Google, Motorola, Razer, and Skydio. According to the announcement, Moss was inspired to launch the company after personally experiencing a life-threatening hypertensive crisis.
The funding will support the company as it advances its technology platform and continues development efforts focused on blood pressure monitoring and long-term cardiovascular health management.
KEY QUOTES:
“High blood pressure affects more than 100 million Americans, but many people don’t realize it until it’s too late, which is why it’s called the ‘silent killer.’ After experiencing a life-threatening hypertensive crisis, I realized how little support people have to truly understand their blood pressure and what they can do to manage it. Vital Signals was built to bring clarity, convenience and control so blood pressure becomes something people can engage with confidently over time, rather than react to in moments of uncertainty.”
Tom Moss, CEO & Founder, Vital Signals
“Vital Signals achieved a technological breakthrough previously assumed to be impossible. We believe it will fundamentally change how billions of people manage their long-term heart health.”
Ross Fubini, XYZ Ventures
