£2.8M
Oto secures £2.8m in seed investment led by Octopus Ventures to develop its digital tinnitus platform.

The oversubscribed seed round was led by Octopus Ventures with backing from Goodwater Capital, Y Combinator, Calm Storm Ventures and Bethnal Green Ventures.
"Tinnitus currently affects around 50 million people in the US and UK, of which 20 million have intrusive tinnitus, a condition that can severely impact an individual’s life. For many this is a condition that they have little choice but to ‘learn to live with’. The Oto team, however, refuse to habituate and instead are providing a 10x cheaper and more convenient way to help people manage their condition. Though they probably don’t complain, we all know someone who suffers from tinnitus and have seen the effects it can have on an individual’s life. This is one of the reasons we wanted to support George, Ed and the entire Oto team as they tackle the market and provide an innovative digital solution to a long overlooked issue"
