    The way to “say it to yourself” is, to always know what is possible with what you have today.

    But that can only happen once you have a clearly identifiable product that you are selling …. whatever it is.

    That’s what Facebook has done. And Apple is not doing much more of. Who knows who Darwin will pick as the survivors of variation and adaptation ?

Spotify founder Daniel Ek’s Neko Health raised $700 million to build a business around scanning your body, but it’s not the only company centering its roadmap around a new kind of preventative healthcare. Midjourney is building its own body scanner, while Function Health has also raised significant capital to build out its preventative-health platform. Why are investors betting so big on this category?

On this episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, Dominic-Madori Davis talks with Farooq Abbasi, founder and general partner of Preface Ventures and an investor in Neko Health, about how Neko compares with other consumer-health startups. They discuss what has to happen for body scanning to become part of the broader healthcare system.
