About

Exactics is a biotech startup committed to developing rapid, reliable, and cost-effective at-home diagnostic technologies for infectious diseases. Our flagship product is TiCK Test, the first ever fully at-home screening test for Lyme disease. This lab-free rapid test detects Lyme disease presence in ticks, delivering results in just 10 minutes and enabling swift, informed treatment decisions for anyone who’s been bitten, whether it’s you or your pet. We are also currently expanding on TiCK Test with screening tests for other tickborne diseases. In addition to TiCK test, Exactics is building AVA, a modular and reusable diagnostic tool that will bring lab-quality diagnosis and subsequent care fully into the home, beginning with sexually transmitted infections. AVA enables efficient, effective, and discreet testing and treatment, with capabilities for expansion to other STIs, respiratory infections, and more. For inquiries or to learn more, please reach out to our team at contact@exacticsbiotech.com. We look forward to connecting!
