On April 25, 2022, Signal 1 announced strategic collaborations with Unity Health Toronto, a leading health network in Ontario, and TD Bank Group (TD) and its world-leading applied AI division, Layer 6. Signal 1 launched with US$10 million in Seed financing led by iNovia Capital. Other investors in the round include TD, AI pioneer Geoffrey Hinton and Radical Ventures.
