Together, the companies aim to connect biomarker testing, imaging, clinician guidance and supplement recommendations, linking health insights with actionable interventions.
“Function’s lab testing, MRI and CT, clinician-reviewed results identify the gaps and create action plans,” explained Jonathan Swerdlin, CEO and co-founder of Function. “SuppCo’s independent supplement evaluation and TrustScore verify what’s worth taking. The result is a system that recommends based on your biology, verifies what you’re putting in your body and measures whether it’s working.”
SuppCo’s consumer app helps guide supplement choices, with ratings across 35,000+ products and analysis of 500,000+ routines.
Function has always focused on helping people understand what is happening inside their body through labs, imaging, and longitudinal health data, Swerdlin said, adding that SuppCo adds an action layer to that ecosystem.
“They built deep expertise around supplement organization, product quality analysis, and personalized routines, alongside an independent system designed to help consumers navigate a highly fragmented category,” he said.
AI health operating system
The acquisition is part of Function’s vision for an “AI health operating system,” which spans lab testing, imaging and clinician guidance and now incorporates what the company describes as an independent action layer through supplements. Swerdlin said the goal is to move beyond isolated snapshots of health toward a system that continuously learns from an individual over time.
“Over the next few years, the focus is on making that system more intelligent through AI,” he said. “That includes helping identify patterns earlier, delivering more contextual recommendations and creating clearer connections between daily behaviors and measurable outcomes.”
Swerdlin described the goal as building an infrastructure that enables a more personalized, proactive and data-centric approach to health management.
“One of the biggest opportunities ahead is helping people move from information to action in a way that is clear, measurable and personal to them,” he said. “Right now, people are overwhelmed by conflicting health advice and forced to navigate important decisions without enough context or trusted infrastructure.”
In March, SuppCo launched TESTED by SuppCo, an independent certification program that anonymously purchases off-the-shelf supplements and tests them to verify their active ingredients. The program debuted in partnership with brands including Momentous, Thorne, Metagenics, Gaia Herbs, Designs for Health, Fatty15, Solaray, Niagen, Integrative Therapeutics and Pendulum.
The company noted that it does not directly profit from supplement sales and said that, combined with Function’s testing and clinician-guided protocols, the platform will provide supplement recommendations based on biological data rather than marketing claims.
Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
