Research & Validation

The studies, benchmarks, and ongoing validation behind Circadify's contactless rPPG models.

Validation Reports

Comprehensive Model Validation

We are actively developing and evaluating our rPPG models across the health metrics we measure. Our ongoing research involves benchmarking against reference devices under a range of real-world conditions.

The Data Advantage

Our biggest advantage is our data

Camera-based vital signs are only as good as their data. We built one of the most rigorous and representative datasets in the field, and it is what makes our measurements hold up outside the lab, on the phones people actually use.

Lab accuracy that holds up in the real world

Every participant is recorded at the same moment on lab-grade reference cameras and on ordinary iPhone and Android phones. Accuracy we prove in the lab carries over to the phone in someone's hand.

Measured against clinical ground truth

Readings are checked against medical reference instruments for heart rate, heart rate variability, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and respiration, so every data point is anchored to a real clinical measurement.

Built for every skin tone

Our data spans the full Fitzpatrick I-VI range and deliberately over-samples darker skin, the blind spot that causes most camera-based vitals to fall apart outside the lab.

Owned, consented, and defensible

The dataset is proprietary, collected with consent for commercial use, and owned or exclusively licensed by Circadify. Competitors can't simply download or replicate it.

Validation from an independent research group

Circadify's performance is being evaluated by an independent, third-party clinical research organization. The results come from outside the company, so partners and investors don't have to take our word for it.

Results are expected in 2026, with a regulatory submission to follow. Circadify supports monitoring and screening, and is not intended for diagnosis.
