About
FIGUR8

Our start: A unique collaboration

FIGUR8 began as a collaboration between MIT scientists, Massachusetts General Hospital Orthopaedics and the Boston Red Sox, in search of a better way to diagnose and treat injuries.

The result was a biomechanics lab in a box through a completely novel, accessible platform that provides objective, actionable data around MSK function. FIGUR8 has now adapted that technology for use at any point of care.
