Guava's mission is to empower people to understand and improve their health

To accomplish our mission, people need complete access and control over their health information, and they need to be able to understand it simply to make informed decisions. We’re building a best-in-class solution that is bridging the information gap.

Our goal is to build an enduring company that measurably improves both our own health and the health of our fellow humans worldwide. This is reflected in our business model - we sell products directly to you and to those trying to keep you healthy so that our incentives are directly aligned with your health goals.

The Guava Team

The founders, Alex and Dylan, are engineers who built and led Graphiq's AI assistant team, acquired by Amazon in 2017 to power Alexa's Q&A.

The team at Guava includes ex-Amazon employees who worked closely together for years, and executives with decades of experience in healthcare, medicine, and privacy law. Some of our team members manage chronic conditions themselves, ensuring we relentlessly build with the patient in mind.

Guava was one of the first patient apps to integrate with EHR and Medicare/Medicaid patient access APIs as they emerged starting in 2021. In cases like New Jersey Medicaid, Guava was the first and remains the only one. We build and maintain integrations in-house and work directly with the underlying platforms rather than third-party aggregators. This gives us greater control over reliability, data quality, security, privacy, and the breadth of data available to our users.
