Cylinder Health acquired by Hinge Health for $105m, marking Big Pi’s third portfolio exit

We are pleased to share that Hinge Health (NYSE: HNGE) has completed its $105m acquisition of Cylinder Health, marking Big Pi’s third portfolio exit, following Accusonus’s acquisition by Meta and our exit from balena.

We first backed Cylinder, then known as Vivante Health, in January 2020, co-leading its $5.8m Series A1. Over the past six years, the company has grown into a leading provider of virtual digestive healthcare in the US, serving nearly 100 clients covering two million lives and having treated more than 150,000 people.

The acquisition brings together Cylinder’s clinical expertise and Hinge Health’s technology platform, with an integrated gastrointestinal care programme expected to launch in 2027.

We are proud to have supported Cylinder on this journey. Congratulations to the entire team whose hard work and commitment to improving digestive care made this milestone possible.
