Mission
For providers:
Cybele Health is a one-stop shop for doctors who want a centralized platform to better manage their time, improve patient satisfaction, and scale their care beyond clinic.
For patients:
At Cybele Health, our mission is to bridge the gap between providers and patients and provide more integrative care.
Vision
Cybele Health will be the intelligent infrastructure layer for healthcare.
An AI-based program that provides check in and resources to patients in between sessions. We are the online accountability partner that delivers better results by freeing up time for doctors to better serve their patients. Built for clinicians, guided ethically by clinicians, with the goal of treating providers with respect and honoring their value. Our platform will empower healthcare professionals with customized AI tools based on each practice's specific pain points.
Ultimately, our platform will enable clinicians to scale their care beyond the clinic with a fully integrated view of their patients encompassing all pillars of health and wellbeing. 90% of therapy happens outside of the office and our software will help patients achieve their goals without constant provider oversight.
Cybele Health uses customizable AI assistant to keep patients engaged between sessions, helping them apply what they learned and make real progress. We aspire to credential more providers with insurance to increase access to care and help providers obtain maximum reimbursement for their work.
Founding Story
Cybele (pronounced sai - bel) was the ancient Phrygian mother goddess and the "Great Mother" (Magna Mater) associated with fertility and wild nature.
Origin: The goddess originated in Phrygia, an ancient region in Anatolia (modern-day Turkey).
Titles: She is known as the "Great Mother" (Magna Mater), the Mother of All Gods, and the personification of the Earth. Central symbol and provides nurturing life. Main branch is fertility but she also provides nutrients for all through her branches…energy and life to everything else.
That's what we want to do with Cybele Health - create a centralized platform for everything related to health and wellness.
Domains: Her worship centers on fertility, nature and motherhood.
Hi - I'm Zara! I started Cybele Health after years of working in AI at Apple and working on my PhD dissertation, where I saw the transformative potential of intelligent systems.
The dissertation title was Predictive Health Modelling for Senior Care - NIH Grant. I was fortunate enough to win several awards.
At the same time, as a mother and a woman navigating career and family, I experienced firsthand the gaps in healthcare: inconsistent follow-ups, lack of continuity, and the overwhelming noise of unverified information online.
More broadly, I saw the transformative power of AI across the healthcare system - and why a one-size-fits-all approach is outdated.
Solution to problem
The more I spoke with providers, the clearer it became: clinicians wanted to stay connected with patients and scale their expertise, but were constrained by time, admin burden, and limited tools.
Patients, meanwhile, wanted trusted guidance tailored to their bodies and life stages - not one-size-fits-all solutions or influencer advice.
In 2024, Cybele Health was born to bridge this gap: a platform where providers can extend their care, scale their impact, and be fairly compensated - while patients receive continuous, holistic support at every stage of life.
In particular, our AI agentic workflow enables providers to stay connected with their patients outside of office visits - fully customized per patient & provider.
