Company

Company overview

Spectral AI is developing DeepView to help clinicians assess whether burn wounds will heal. The system captures wound images across several wavelengths of light, then uses AI software to distinguish tissue predicted to heal from tissue predicted not to heal. Burns are its current focus.

The company has not earned revenue from product sales or licensing. Almost all revenue comes from BARDA, a U.S. government agency that funds DeepView research, testing and development, with smaller contributions from other government awards. Payments depend on reimbursable research spending and, for some awards, completed milestones. Continued funding also depends on contract milestones and government decisions to exercise further options.

After obtaining the necessary market authorizations, Spectral AI plans to sell DeepView devices to hospitals and other care sites and charge software licensing fees that include maintenance, image hosting and algorithm updates. U.S. marketing requires FDA De Novo authorization, and the company may promote only regulator-permitted uses. Commercial sales would also depend on clinicians adopting the system.

Spectral AI’s results currently hinge on BARDA-funded development, while future DeepView product revenue depends on regulatory authorization and burn-center adoption.

  • Avita Medical, Inc. offers a read on the specialist burn-care sites Spectral AI hopes to sell to: AVITA sells RECELL to treat thermal burns, while Spectral AI is developing DeepView to assess burn healing. Watch RECELL adoption at those sites for signs of their willingness to use new burn-care technology, though DeepView still needs regulatory authorization.
