Spry has announced the launch of their self-assessment portal. Through the use of AI-based technologies this digital tool will provide users with a comprehensive assessment of their mobility and flexibility, along with an indicative set of strength and endurance levels by means of a scorecard. Users will also receive an interpretation of their results via a comparison with broader population health data.

Users who are experiencing musculoskeletal-related (MSK) pain or discomfort, or even those seeking to better understand their body’s readiness to engage in physical activity, can use the portal to derive a clear understanding of the issues they face. Based on these details, the platform generates a scorecard and suggests follow-up action. The information derived is also customised based on the user’s planned activity. For example, the result matrices for an ardent golfer or tennis player would be “different from that of a desk worker.

Brijraj Bhuptani, Co-Founder and CEO, Spry said, “Movement health is the undiagnosed medical crisis of our time. Despite the vital role it plays in the health and wellbeing of every individual, it is rarely addressed or diagnosed in traditional medical discourse. Spry was built on the democratisation of movement health. With the launch of this platform, we’ve gotten one step closer to that goal. By providing our users with an accessible and affordable front door for all their MSK issues, we offer an opportunity to substantially upgrade their overall quality of life. If you’re experiencing the slightest physical discomfort and want to understand the next course of action, all you need to do is log in to get a clear answer.”

The driving technology behind this platform’s capabilities is Computer Vision. A field of AI that enables computers and systems to derive meaningful information from visual inputs, computer vision is used for key body part detection, segmentation and object detection. Through a combination of frontend and backend computer vision technologies, users are presented with a comprehensive MSK diagnosis.

The portal’s digital assessments on mobility, strength, and endurance are developed by Spry’s internal medical team using earlier studies on the subject. The results are being externally validated by healthcare professionals at the Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE), which houses the top-rated allied health programme in India.
