A Personal Search for Answers Became a Shared Solution

The Story

Dragan grew frustrated with the limits of traditional sequencing and wanted a better way. Matthew searched for answers to his own health issues and hoped for a simpler approach. Together they discovered the potential of VOCs in urine to reveal early signs of disease. They founded TOBY to build noninvasive, AI-powered tests inspired by Sherlock Holmes’s scent-tracking bloodhound.
