About

Most people who build health apps have never sat across from a patient. My wife Dagmara has, over 600 times, with a clinical trichoscope, in her salon. She kept seeing the same thing. People whose blood results looked "fine" on paper but whose scalp told a completely different story. Nobody had built anything to connect those two pictures. I've spent 30 years in medical diagnostics, AI models for skin microbime, EU regulatory pathways, an IPO, a $55m exit. When Dagmara described the gap, I recognised it immediately. Órga Hair is our answer to that problem. "A trichologist in your pocket", built by the people who couldn't leave the problem alone.

The biggest insight from talking to 50+ enterprise AI leaders this quarter

Spent a chunk of the last quarter talking to AI leads at mid-market and enterprise companies. The dominant insight surprised me.

The thing they're most worried about isn't model choice, cost, or compliance.

I retired early from a 30-year career in medical diagnostics. My wife's data pulled me back out.

I'm Gerry, co-founder and technology partner of Orga Hair, which we launched here two days ago.

Before rga Hair existed, my wife Dagmara, a Digital AI Trichology Expert running a trichology salon in Poland, spent 18 months building a custom salon app to capture medical-grade trichoscope data at four magnification levels across 600 clients. The kind of imaging used in clinical dermatology, inside a hair salon.
