Her.9 is a Direct-To-Consumer (DTC) female technology brand that caters to the needs of women during pregnancy. It cites research arguing that up to 40% of women taking prenatal vitamins may not be able to absorb the folic acid within the UK’s leading pregnancy brand. Her.9 aims to resolve this by employing DUOCAP technology. The company asserts that DUOCAP is a capsule-in-capsule delivery system which contains solubilised prebiotics in the outer capsule and probiotics in the inner capsule. The prebiotic releases immediately and the probiotic releases later allowing for targeted supplement delivery in the body. The prenatal supplements market is set to be worth $56 billion globally by 2024. Her.9 aims to be a notable contender in this segment. The company is raising investment to build its already established partnerships and execute its marketing strategy effectively.
