The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Ro uS-only service - Ro's own help center states it cannot serve individuals residing outside the United States, including US territories; Therapixel european and American regulatory positions were established under different regimes, and under the EU Medical Device Regulation this class of diagnostic AI faces a higher classification and notified body scrutiny, so European buyers must verify the current MDR certificate and expiry rather than relying on a legacy CE reference.
  • They diverge on capability: Ro covers Video Consultations, Therapixel covers MammoScreen 2D.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Ro

  • US-only service - Ro's own help center states it cannot serve individuals residing outside the United States, including US territories
  • Care is limited to Ro-affiliated, US-licensed providers - users cannot choose an outside doctor
  • Treatment and medication availability varies by US state
  • Focused on a narrow set of conditions (weight loss, ED, hair loss, skincare, fertility) rather than general primary care

Therapixel

  • European and American regulatory positions were established under different regimes, and under the EU Medical Device Regulation this class of diagnostic AI faces a higher classification and notified body scrutiny, so European buyers must verify the current MDR certificate and expiry rather than relying on a legacy CE reference.
  • MammoScreen does mammography only, so a hospital wanting AI across head CT, chest and breast needs several vendors and several PACS integrations, or an orchestration layer bought from someone else.
  • Therapixel is a small French company competing against Hologic and iCAD, which have incumbency inside the mammography reading workstation, so integration into an American breast centre is more work than it is for the workstation vendor own AI.
  • Detection performance is sensitive to the mammography unit vendor and acquisition protocol, so published results do not transfer between estates and each site needs local validation it must fund itself.
  • Whether AI can substitute for one of two human readers is a national workforce and liability question, not a product capability, so the labour saving that justifies the purchase in one country is not permitted in another.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Therapixel: Is MammoScreen FDA cleared?

Yes. It holds 510(k) clearance K192854 for two dimensional mammography from July 2020, a November 2021 clearance for digital breast tomosynthesis, and two further clearances in October 2024 for later versions.

Therapixel: Is it CE marked?

Yes, but European buyers should ask specifically for the current certificate under the Medical Device Regulation and its expiry date, because this class of diagnostic AI moved to a higher classification under MDR.

Therapixel: What does the one to ten score mean?

It is a graded suspicion score per finding and per study, designed to be integrated alongside a radiologist BI-RADS assessment rather than treated as a positive or negative result.

Therapixel: Does it cover anything besides mammography?

No. It is a mammography product only, including tomosynthesis. Other body regions need a different vendor.
