One Million Metrics Corp., or Kinetic, is an industrial analytics company, that is developing devices for preventing workforce injury. The company develops wearable device for material handling workers that monitors and analyzes their lifting posture and provides notifications when that posture becomes unsafe. Its device monitors various lifting postures ranging from dead-lifts to shoulder raises and anything in between; and diagnoses problems and receives actionable insights. Lifting related injuries are the number one drivers of workers compensation costs in the US. Last year, US companies spent over $70bn on these injuries. Most of these injuries are preventable. KINETIC makes smart wearable devices that can significantly reduce these costs.
