Human API is a technology company.
Human API provides a consumer-permissioned health data network, enabling individuals to securely connect and share comprehensive health information from diverse sources. The platform offers critical infrastructure for integrating, managing, and exchanging this data across the healthcare ecosystem. It aggregates a unified view of an individual’s health journey, drawing from various metrics and records.
Andrei Pop founded Human API in 2013, recognizing that fragmented health data impeded both individual empowerment and industry innovation. His foundational insight was to create a universal layer to unlock siloed health information, placing direct control into consumers' hands. This approach aimed to transform data utilization for individual benefit and healthcare progress.
The company serves various healthcare stakeholders, including payers, providers, and health technology firms, empowering them to leverage real-world health data. Human API’s vision is to accelerate health innovation by establishing a ubiquitous, secure conduit for health data, fostering individual agency and contributing to a more connected healthcare future.

Human API is a technology company building a consumer-controlled health data platform that connects, normalizes, and structures data from thousands of sources including hospitals, EHRs, pharmacies, labs, wearables, and fitness apps.[1][2][3] It serves healthcare innovators like insurance companies (e.g., Nationwide, Prudential, John Hancock), digital health startups (e.g., Omada Health, Thrive Global), clinical research organizations, and pharma firms by enabling them to access comprehensive, permissioned health data via a secure, HIPAA-compliant API, solving the fragmentation of health data that hinders innovation and consumer-centric services.[1][2][4] With over 30,000 data connections covering 270 million people, partnerships like Nationwide for faster underwriting, and a $20M+ Series C funding round, Human API demonstrates strong growth momentum in creating health data liquidity controlled by consumers.[3][4]
Human API emerged from the need to "free your health data," as articulated by co-founder and VP of Engineering Ola Wiberg, addressing the challenge of aggregating fragmented data from wearables, apps, sensors, and medical records.[5] Founded around 2014 in the San Francisco Bay Area (headquartered in San Mateo and Redwood City, California), the company was built by engineers focused on consumer-centric solutions, starting with API monitoring to ensure reliability as it scaled to over 7,500 developers.[1][5] Early traction came from enterprise customers in health IT and corporate wellness, evolving into a platform powering Fortune 500 insurers and digital health scale-ups, with pivotal moments like the 2022 Nationwide partnership for automated underwriting and a Series C raise to expand consumer-controlled data ecosystems.[4][5]
Human API rides the trend of health data democratization and liquidity, enabling a shift from siloed, provider-controlled data to consumer-driven access amid rising demand for personalized digital health, real-world evidence in research, and efficient underwriting in insurance.[1][2][4] Timing aligns with post-pandemic acceleration in telehealth, wearables, and AI-driven health apps, where fragmented data has been a bottleneck—market forces like regulatory pushes for patient data portability (e.g., via FHIR standards) and explosive growth in digital therapeutics favor its model.[3][6] It influences the ecosystem by catalyzing innovation for 55 employees' platform serving Fortune 500s and startups, reducing barriers for developers, improving patient engagement/outcomes, and supporting diverse clinical research, positioning it as a key enabler in a $11.6M revenue-generating bridge between personal wellness data and enterprise health solutions.[1][5]
Human API is poised to expand its "one-stop shop" for health data liquidity, leveraging Series C funding to penetrate pharma, digital health, and global markets while advancing consumer empowerment tools.[4] Trends like AI integration for predictive analytics, broader SDoH data inclusion, and regulatory tailwinds for interoperability will shape its trajectory, potentially scaling connections beyond 30,000 and fueling exponential developer adoption.[3] Its influence may evolve from aggregator to ecosystem orchestrator, accelerating health innovation as fragmented data gives way to unified, human-controlled streams—radically fulfilling its mission to maximize human potential through accessible data.[2]
Human API has raised $37.0M across 3 funding rounds. Most recently, it raised $20.0M Series C in October 2020.
