Vara is a provider of an AI breast cancer screening platform for radiologists, enabling them to focus on finding cancer early.

Vara's mission is to make high-quality screening available and affordable for everyone.

Vara was founded in 2018 by Jonas Muff and Stefan Bun. The company is headquartered in Berlin, Berlin, Germany.

 

Vara’s AI-powered software platform mitigates much of the human subjectivity associated with reading mammography results—and reduces the repetitive work screening physicians are routinely subjected to.

 

Vara's platform assesses more than 80,000 mammography examinations per month, and 30% of all screening centres in Germany work with Vara. Through this integration, the system has access to more than 10 years of clinical and pathological follow-up data from 9 million+ mammograms.

 

Vara now powers five screening centres across Mexico in partnership with Mamotest. Vara has also partnered with MITERA, the largest Private Hospital in Greece. Large employers, such as the automobile company JAC or Latin American food company GAT are purchasing screenings offered by Mamotest and Vara, as are large NGO organisations such as ProMujer.

 

Vara is backed by Omers Ventures, EQT Foundation, Merantix, Think Health, Soleria Capital, Plug and Play, VI Partners, Med 360, AI Venture Studio, and others. The company raised an additional $4.4M Series A financing on Oct 25, 2022. This is an extension of its previous $7M raised in Jun 2020, bringing the Series A total to $11.4M, and overall funding to $15.1M to date.
