Taqtik Health Launches BariPal: AI-Powered Support Agent for Post-Bariatric Surgery Patients

San Mateo, California

June 23, 2025 — Taqtik Health, a global leader in remote patient monitoring and post-operative care, proudly announces the launch of BariPal, an always-on, AI-powered support agent designed to guide bariatric surgery patients through their recovery journey with empathy, consistency, and clinical intelligence.

Developed at Taqtik’s innovation hub in San Mateo, California, BariPal delivers 24/7 personalized guidance, emotional support, and behavior coaching tailored for individuals who are one week or even one year post-surgery. The platform provides daily check-ins, grocery and coaching suggestions, medication reminders, and real-time insights to help patients stay on track. It also assists with clinic communications by generating summaries of patient activity, sleep, and mood to share with care teams.

“Meet BariPal, your smart companion after bariatric surgery. This week, it is helping one user get back on track with gentle support, just when they need it,” said Yasuhiro Hashimoto, President and Co-Founder at Taqtik Health. “It is more than an assistant. It is a continuous care touchpoint.”

Why BariPal Matters

  • Rising global demand for bariatric surgery and GLP-1 therapies has highlighted the need for better long-term support
  • With thousands of patient inquiries in recent years, Taqtik identified consistency and post-op follow-up as critical gaps
  • Clinics and surgeons benefit from enhanced patient outcomes, better engagement, and reduced readmission risk

Investor Opportunity

Taqtik Health invites investor discussions on expanding BariPal across global markets through remote patient monitoring platforms, employer health partnerships, and surgical aftercare ecosystems.
