The company offers a membership-based fitness service that employs a one-on-one coaching model. The infusion of capital is expected to help fuel the company's marketing and product development efforts. The company also plans to add new categories of health coaching in the future.

The organization also announced the launch of its API service for healthcare organizations. Getlabs created a platform that allows patients to request a specialist to come to home or office.

Digital MSK company Formus Labs scored $5 million for its 3D joint-replacement-surgery planning tool. GD1 led the funding round, with participation from Punakaiki Fund, Icehouse Ventures, Pacific Channel and Flying Kiwis.

The New Zealand-based company plans to use the cash to expand its products and move into the U.S. market.
"Our goal is to make orthopedic surgery as simple as it can be by arming surgeons with the latest cutting-edge technology, so every joint replacement has a Formus plan that reduces the need for revisions, instills confidence and facilitates better outcomes for patients, at a lower cost," Dr. Ju Zhang, founder and CEO of Formus Labs, said in a statement.
