With the recent announcement of Function Health closing 53M in Series A funding, we thought it appropriate to write a post comparing Thrive and Function Health. Both Thrive and Function Health are committed to helping individuals achieve optimal wellness, but our approaches and the breadth of services offered differ quite significantly. As we at Thrive believe in empowering individuals with comprehensive information, let's explore how these two services compare, to help you make an informed decision about your health journey.

If you're looking for advanced blood testing and expert analysis, Function Health offers a solid solution. But if you're seeking a more comprehensive, personalized, and actionable approach to your health - one that combines cutting-edge diagnostics with ongoing medical care and support - we at Thrive are ready to partner with you on your journey to optimal wellness.
