FAQ

Questions, answered.

Everything worth knowing about MARKABLE in one place: what it is, the science behind the check, how your data stays yours, and how clinics and employers put it to work.

About MARKABLE

The basics.

What is MARKABLE? +

MARKABLE is a general wellness platform that helps women understand the perimenopause transition and follow it over time. From a selfie and a check of about seven minutes on your own phone, it reads five wellness signals (facial signals, cognition, hearing, vision and symptoms) into one clear, structured picture you can keep private or share with your own clinician.

MARKABLE is a general wellness product, not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

Who is MARKABLE for? +

MARKABLE is built for women who want to understand their own wellness through the perimenopause transition and beyond. Clinicians use the structured summary a woman chooses to share to start the visit already informed. Employers and health plans offer it as a wellness benefit and see only aggregate, de-identified trends, never individual results.

How long does the check take? +

About seven minutes, on your own phone, whenever it suits you. A full check includes a quick selfie, a few short game-like cognition and sensory tasks, and a structured symptom log. You can do it at home, and you can repeat it over time to build a trend.

Is the first check free? +

Yes. Your first wellness check is free. After that, how you use MARKABLE depends on your situation (personal use, a clinic, or an employer or health-plan program). You can reach us at [email protected] for details.

Does MARKABLE measure my hormones? +

No. MARKABLE does not measure hormones and does not draw blood. It reads wellness signals that are associated with the hormonal transition (facial signals, cognition, hearing, vision and symptoms) and combines them into one picture you can follow over time. For hormone levels, speak with your own clinician.

The science

How the check reads your signals.

Does menopause change your face? +

The perimenopause transition is associated with gradual changes across the face, including skin texture and tone, the area around the eyes, facial volume and the hairline. These shifts are usually too slow to notice in the mirror. From a single selfie, MARKABLE reads this set of facial signals and follows them over time. It describes patterns associated with the transition; it does not diagnose anything.

How does the selfie work? +

You take an ordinary selfie with your phone. MARKABLE reads a set of facial signals (skin texture and tone, the region around the eyes, facial volume and the hairline) that are associated with the hormonal transition, and turns them into wellness indicators you can follow over time. The most informative part is the trend across repeated checks, not any single photo.

What are the five signals? +

MARKABLE brings together five independent wellness signals:

  • Facial signals: a single selfie reads skin texture and tone, the region around the eyes, facial volume and the hairline.
  • Cognition: short, game-like tasks look at attention, memory, word retrieval and processing speed, domains associated with hormonal change.
  • Hearing: brief sound tasks look at auditory processing, one of the sensory systems associated with the transition.
  • Vision: quick contrast and color tasks look at visual processing, a second independent sensory signal.
  • Symptoms: a structured log across dozens of symptom domains, in your own words.

Each signal captures something the others miss. Together they make a fuller picture than any single one.

How accurate is MARKABLE? +

In an early, observational pilot the fused model reached an AUC of 0.87 (95% CI 0.72 to 0.97). This is internal research, not peer-reviewed, and a paper is in preparation. Like any wellness tool, results are best read as general trends rather than precise measurements, and things like lighting, camera and time of day can affect a single reading.

The value is in the trend over weeks and months, which is why repeated checks matter more than any one result.

Does MARKABLE replace blood tests? +

No. MARKABLE is designed to work alongside the care you already have. It is non-invasive, takes about seven minutes on your own phone, and is easy to repeat, so it builds a picture over time that you can bring to your own clinician. Blood work stays valuable, and MARKABLE is meant to complement it, not replace it.

Privacy & data

Your face is your data.

Is my data private? +

Yes. Your individual wellness data is yours, and it is never sold. It is not shared with anyone without your explicit consent. If you choose to share a summary with your own clinician, only the clinician you designate receives it. If you use MARKABLE through an employer or health plan, that organization sees only aggregate, de-identified trends, never your individual results.

Is my selfie stored? +

Your photo is processed to produce wellness indicators, and the original image is not kept unless you explicitly opt in to photo storage. Your face is your data, and you control what happens to it.

Who can see my results? +

Only you, unless you choose to share. You decide whether to keep your results private or send a summary to your own clinician. Employers and health plans that offer MARKABLE receive only aggregate, de-identified group trends and never see your selfie, your scores or your individual results.

Is MARKABLE designed for GDPR alignment? +

Yes. MARKABLE is designed and operated to align with GDPR and UK GDPR: health-related data is processed only with explicit consent, data-subject rights (access, deletion, portability, correction) are supported, and appropriate safeguards apply to international transfers. Israel holds a European Commission adequacy decision for data protection.

For detail, see our Privacy Policy.

How does MARKABLE handle HIPAA? +

MARKABLE is a general wellness tool and is not a HIPAA covered entity, and it voluntarily aligns its data practices with HIPAA standards. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with access controls and breach-notification procedures. Where a clinic or health plan requires a Business Associate Agreement, we can put one in place.

For clinics & employers

How organizations use MARKABLE.

How do clinics use MARKABLE? +

When a patient completes a check and chooses to share it, the clinician receives a structured wellness summary by email or secure web link. The summary leads with an at-a-glance overview and covers current therapy and adherence, the focus of the visit, the symptom landscape, reported bleeding and cycle changes, and functional signals across cognition and facial wellness, with any patterns worth a closer look flagged. There is nothing to install and no EHR integration required to begin.

It is intake context, not a diagnosis, and clinical decisions remain entirely the clinician's.

Can a clinic run a pilot? +

Yes. Clinics can start with a free pilot of a few patient checks, at no cost and no commitment. You share a link with your patients, they complete their checks at home, and you receive the summaries. Most clinics can start within a day. Email [email protected] or see the For Clinics page.

Can MARKABLE connect to my EHR? +

Today MARKABLE delivers summaries by email and secure web link, so there is nothing to install. Deeper EHR integration is on the roadmap. If it matters for your practice, tell us at [email protected] and we will scope it to your workflow.

Can my employer see my individual results? +

Never. When MARKABLE is offered through an employer or health-plan program, the organization receives only aggregate, de-identified trends. Your selfie, your cognition and sensory results, your symptom log and your indicators are never visible to your employer.

How is MARKABLE rolled out at a company? +

Simply, and with no IT setup. Employees receive an invitation link, create their own private account and complete checks on their own phone at home. The organization receives a periodic aggregate wellness view. There is nothing to install, no VPN and no access to company systems.

Regulatory & safety

Where MARKABLE sits, and where it does not.

Is MARKABLE a medical device? +

No. MARKABLE is a general wellness product, in line with FDA, MHRA (UK) and Israeli MOH general-wellness guidance. It is for personal awareness and self-monitoring. It does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease, and it is not a diagnostic service.

Does MARKABLE have CE marking? +

MARKABLE does not require CE marking because it is a general wellness product, not a medical device. General wellness products that make no claim to diagnose, treat or prevent disease fall outside the scope of medical-device regulation in the EU and UK.

Can MARKABLE tell me if something is wrong? +

No. MARKABLE describes wellness patterns that are associated with the hormonal transition and helps you follow them over time. It does not diagnose, and it is not a substitute for professional care. If something concerns you, or your summary prompts a question, bring it to a qualified healthcare provider.
