Bodd was initially developed to solve sizing challenges in apparel fittings, but the 3D body-scanning startup is moving into wellness and consumer health, bringing its body scanners to Australian pharmacies to support weight loss patients on GLP-1s.
In less than 90 seconds, Bodd's scanners now capture measurements like body fat percentage, BMI, water retention, heart rate and other health indicators. "We’re bridging the gap between a conventional appointment with your GP and a telehealth appointment, which is done completely virtually," said Bodd CEO Rob Fisher.
Bodd also has applications in corporate wellness and fitness, with both experiences offering a highly personalized, safe, non-invasive, and no-contact approach to tracking and monitoring changes, supporting preventive care and delivering actionable insights.
