Midi Health
Target
Adults navigating midlife hormonal change — perimenopause, menopause, testosterone decline
Women in perimenopause and menopause seeking virtual clinical care, prescriptions, and specialist-led treatment programs
Key Focus
Physician-founded clinical intelligence platform — 4 computation engines, 8-domain scoring, STRAW+10 staging, and prescribing, built on a fellowship-trained surgeon's deployed clinical system
A virtual menopause clinic staffed by board-certified menopause specialists — prescriptions, insurance coverage, and specialized programs for weight, mood, sleep, and sexual wellness, delivered through scheduled video visits

Built on a physician's live clinical system

Kairos™ was built by Dr. Shannon Carpenter — a fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeon who runs The Bone Health Clinic — as the patient-facing layer of her deployed clinical system. Four computation engines score symptoms across eight clinical domains, classify reproductive aging through STRAW+10, and flag clinically significant transitions automatically. It tracks both women and men, monitors bone health as a first-class domain, and generates provider-ready reports designed for a 15-minute appointment. Through provider integration, Kairos™ prescribes — backed by continuous clinical intelligence, not a one-time questionnaire. It supports insurance-backed and cash-pay care on the same platform. No other app in this space is built on a live clinical backend, and none of them can replace what takes four or five apps to approximate.

Side-by-side comparison

What Midi Health does well

What we respect: Board-certified menopause specialists

Midi's providers are not general practitioners dabbling in hormones. They are specialists — board-certified in menopause care — and that matters clinically. The quality of the prescriber is a genuine differentiator. We respect it.

What we respect: Nationwide clinical access

Midi operates in all 50 states and accepts health insurance, making specialist menopause care accessible to millions of women who would otherwise see a generalist with limited hormone expertise. That reach is real and it matters.

What we respect: Established specialist network

Midi has built a nationwide network of board-certified menopause specialists who can prescribe FDA-approved hormone therapy, non-hormonal medications, and targeted supplements. That specialist bench depth — and the infrastructure to fulfill prescriptions — took years and real clinical investment to assemble.

What we respect: Specialized care programs

AgeWell, Weight, Mood & Memory, Sleep, Sexual Wellness, Hair & Skin, Cancer Survivorship — Midi built dedicated programs for the full midlife health picture, not just hot flashes. That clinical depth is not common in this space.

How Kairos™ adds value

The gap: Midi sees you for 30 minutes every few months — then nothing

Midi's model is expert visits. What happens between those visits? You recall symptoms from memory. You describe a pattern you only vaguely remember. Your provider adjusts treatment based on what you can reconstruct on the spot. Kairos™ closes that gap: 90 days of scored, trended, domain-by-domain symptom data, cycle statistics, and clinically flagged events — ready before the visit starts.

The gap: No daily tracking platform

Midi has no between-visit monitoring layer. No daily check-ins. No longitudinal trend curves. No Symptom Burden scores across 8 clinical domains. If a patient's vasomotor symptoms spike three weeks before their next appointment, Midi doesn't know. Kairos™ does.

The gap: No computation engines for reproductive staging or event detection

Kairos™ runs four computation engines that no telehealth company has built: Symptom Burden scoring across 8 clinical domains, Cycle Variability analysis, STRAW+10 reproductive aging staging, and Event Detection for clinically significant transitions. Midi's clinical picture starts when the visit starts. Kairos builds it continuously.

The gap: No men's health track

Midi is a women's health clinic. Testosterone decline, andropause, and the male midlife hormonal shift are outside their scope. Kairos™ tracks men and women in parallel — same 8-domain scoring architecture, same staging and event detection — because hormonal aging is not a women's-only experience.

The gap: Telehealth company vs. clinical intelligence platform

Midi was built to deliver care. Kairos™ was built by a surgeon who needed better tools for the patients she already treats. Kairos is the patient-facing layer of a deployed clinical system — the same provider tracker powering The Bone Health Clinic, with therapy lifecycle management, care management billing, and EHR integration already live in production. That is a different category of infrastructure.

Kairos™ vs Midi Health

Midi Health has built a strong virtual menopause clinic — board-certified specialists, insurance coverage, nationwide access. That is real clinical infrastructure. But Midi is a visit-based care model: your provider sees you for 30 minutes, a few times a year, relying on what you can recall. Kairos™ combines that same prescribing capability with continuous clinical intelligence — 90 days of scored, trended symptom data across 8 domains, reproductive stage classification, and flagged clinical events, all feeding into provider decisions in real time. Midi built the visits. Kairos builds the intelligence that should power every visit.
