Don't Buy A Bad Back. Predict Injuries Before They Happen.

The future of workplace safety is objective, AI-enhanced human motion analysis.

Health Motion Labs uses markerless human 3D motion capture to predict injuries before the first shift starts.

The Reality of Workplace Risk

Every new hire involves critical safety considerations.

1.3M+

Injuries reported to OSHA in 2024.

20%

Of all workplace injuries are back-related.

$40k–$100k+

Average potential cost per workers' comp claim.

75–80%

Of injuries occur during lifting or manual material handling.

Widespread

Risk exists across multiple industries including Warehousing, Manufacturing, Retail, and Healthcare sectors.

Identifying Hidden Pre-Existing Liabilities

While regulatory standards limit direct inquiries into pre-existing conditions, proactive assessment provides the objective data required to ensure candidate safety and mitigate risk.

20%
Of adults 18–24 have a pre-existing condition.
50%
Of adults 55+ have a pre-existing condition.

Expert Knowledge

We take the 'plain English' diagnostic rules from the world’s leading PTs and Doctors.

Scientific Precision

Our engine converts those clinical rules into precise geometric measurements.

Zero Subjectivity

We don't 'feel' risk. We measure degrees of deviation, precise joint angles, and millimeters of asymmetry.
