The submission describes 'Zanthion', a senior monitoring platform founded in 2017. While the core concept addresses a genuine need (real-world utility), the project appears to be inactive or 'deadpooled' according to market intelligence (Tracxn). The submission is critically undermined by demonstrably false claims regarding traction ('most people have used my product') and audience reach ('everyone'), as well as confusing financial metrics ('all time marketcap' for a private entity). The lack of verifiable active users and the low quality of the response result in a minimal score.

Description
Zanthion, a Vanguard in HealthTech Solutions, offers cutting-edge remote senior/resident/patient monitoring with real-time response and resolution analytics for every patient/application/company. Our open and extensible platform ensures our customer gets the critical data necessary to protect their users with trended alerts on abnormal ADLs. The Zanthion Platform can add devices and sensors from any manufacturer to augment the information for specific use cases. Zanthion technology includes both wearable devices (SMART Watch) and Passive Sensors. Wearable technology measures heart rate, activity, and precise location. While the user’s SMART Watch is being charged at night (nobody likes to sleep with a watch on), through a connection with the Passive Sensor network, sleep activity, bed exit, bathroom activity, and fall events will be detected, monitored and measured. Zanthion SMART Watches and SMART Living Platform look for changes in activity, behavior, and biometric measurements, over time, with automatic notification to caregivers for critical events and significant changes via the Zanthion Caregiver Mobile App, now on both Google Play Store and Apple App Store. ALL Zanthion SMART devices, including wearable and tablet/phone gateways, allow a direct cellular voice connection between the user and the caregiver. Our SMART Gateways are fully functioning Android Mobile Phones with voice and data plans INCLUDED. Interested in monitoring a patient's blood pressure?
