Why Sword

Driven by clinical experts, powered by AI, accessible from anywhere.

Give your members the best MSK care and save with the highest proven ROI.
Industry-leading outcomes & ROI

By helping members avoid surgery, ER visits, and painkillers, we drastically reduce healthcare costs through clinical outcomes that are unmatched—saving our customers an average of $3,012 per member per year on care for MSK disorders and related chronic conditions and delivering up to a 3:1 ROI, powered by predictive analytics that detect the highest-risk members and help them avoid unnecessary, expensive medical procedures.

Clinical rigor

Our team is composed of experienced clinicians, including physical therapists and Pelvic Health Specialists, each with a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree. And we have more FDA-listed devices, technology patents, published clinical studies, and regulatory clearances than any other company in the industry.

Personalized programs for every member

Each program is custom tailored for every member. Between regular communication with a clinical expert and data gathered through connected technology, clinicians regularly adjust members’ programs based on goals, needs, and progress.

Advanced, easy-to-use technology

Sword’s superior technology guides members through routines and uses motion capture technology, powered by AI, to detect poor form and deliver live, corrective feedback to help members perform the exercises and movements correctly every time. Phoenix, the world’s first AI Care Specialist, communicates with members through natural conversation, providing precision correction, program customization, and motivation.

Coordinated plan of care

We act as an extension of your clinical care and concierge service. By working directly with the member, the health plan, and providers, we promote a seamless care ecosystem. And to further inform and better coordinate treatment, Sword360 integrates our clinical portal with electronic medical records from a member’s traditional care team.

Health plan expertise

We know, listen to, and understand health plans and their often complex and challenging integration needs. Sword has a team dedicated to providing a frictionless experience for your business.

Sword360

Sword360 is a data integration platform that leverages an industry-leading secure gateway system, enables bi-directional data sharing, and connects stakeholders across a member’s health and wellness experience.

Computer Vision
Computer vision utilizes the camera on the distributed Digital Therapist to take a rendering of each member’s form. Sword’s motion processing AI analyzes the members' movements and provides live feedback. Our physical therapists then use the performance data to monitor progress and continuously tailor each program. In addition to driving similar member satisfaction and completion rates, computer vision also drives similar or greater member outcomes than sensor-based programs.

WHY SWORD

We don't take shortcuts.

These core principles are what we stand for, what will never change, and what drives our people and business forward.

People Over Profit

We take a members-first approach to everything we do, from our PT-to-member ratio to our On-Call clinical support. Our members always feel connected. We use technology and data so that our PTs can enhance each member's program after every session. No automated playlists, blanket programs, or unqualified health coaches. Just real PTs, real people, real progress.

We work with evidence. That means our solutions aren’t based on hunches or simply following trends—they’re clinically-backed solutions borne out of data and research. We continue to earn the trust of our customers because the data doesn’t lie—our solutions work.

People come first
