Company Overview

About Junction

Junction is a United States-based health data infrastructure company — backed by Y Combinator with $18 million in Series A funding in March 2025 led by Creandum with participation from Point Nine, Amino Collective, and Inflect Health — providing digital health companies, research organizations, and healthcare technology platforms with a unified API infrastructure for collecting wearable device data (500+ supported devices including Apple Watch, Fitbit, Oura, Garmin, and continuous glucose monitors) and delivering at-home diagnostic test kits to patients with automated diagnostic data workflows that connect labs, wearables, and health systems. Founded and serving 140+ healthcare organizations including Found, Parsley Health, and Evidation, Junction supports 500,000+ lab tests annually and 2 million+ connected devices.

Business Model & Competitive Advantage

Junction's unified health data API addresses the fragmentation problem in digital health data collection: health technology companies (telehealth platforms, clinical research organizations, wellness apps, chronic disease management programs) need data from many different consumer health devices and at-home diagnostic kits — but each device manufacturer (Apple, Fitbit, Oura, Abbott's Dexcom CGM, Withings connected scales) has different APIs, different authentication flows, different data formats, and different developer program requirements. Building and maintaining direct integrations with 20+ device APIs is a significant ongoing engineering investment. Junction provides the single integration that delivers normalized data streams from 500+ devices through one API, reducing the health data integration project from months to days. The at-home lab test kit fulfillment capability (ordering, shipping, patient activation, result routing) extends the platform beyond wearable passive monitoring to active diagnostic testing for programs that need both lab biomarker data and continuous device monitoring.

Competitive Landscape 2025–2026

In 2025, Junction competes in the health data integration, digital health API infrastructure, and at-home diagnostics market with Validic (digital health data platform, $14M raised), Terra API (wearable data API, $8M raised), and Particle Health (health data network, $30M raised) for digital health company data infrastructure adoption. The digital health data integration market has grown as the proliferation of consumer health wearables and digital therapeutics has made the data integration problem more complex — a GLP-1 obesity management program like Found needs CGM data, smart scale data, food logging integrations, and at-home metabolic panel testing all from a single patient workflow. Creandum's Series A leadership (Creandum is a leading European digital health and SaaS VC) reflects conviction in Junction as the standard healthcare data infrastructure layer. Y Combinator backing connects Junction with the digital health founder community. The 2025 strategy focuses on growing the clinical research organization (CRO) partnerships for remote clinical trial data collection, building the real-time data streaming for health alert and intervention triggers, and expanding the at-home diagnostic test catalog for chronic disease management programs.
