ABOUT RAO SCOUT
A personal reason. A shared purpose.
RAO SCOUT began with a loss that changed our founder’s life. After losing a close family member to cardiomyopathy, Jeanette Ortegon wanted to help people better understand their heart health and recognize changes that might otherwise go unnoticed.
That purpose became RAO SCOUT—a wearable physiological sensing platform under development that brings together a sensor-enabled garment, a removable electronics module, and a companion mobile app. Our vision is to make meaningful health information easier to access during everyday life.

POWERED BY WAVERLY TECHNOLOGY
A veteran-led small business.
RAO SCOUT is an initiative of Waverly Technology LLC, a Maryland-based, woman-owned and service-disabled veteran-owned small business.
Led by Jeanette, a U.S. Navy veteran, Waverly brings experience in information technology, cybersecurity, systems engineering, and program management. We apply that experience to coordinate RAO SCOUT’s development, work with technical and clinical collaborators, and plan for secure, connected technology.
OUR MISSION
Helping people stay better informed.
Our mission is to help individuals and those who care for them stay better informed through comfortable, connected wearable technology.
We are developing RAO SCOUT to explore how cardiac signals and other physiological measurements can provide a clearer picture of changes over time. Our long-term goal is to support earlier awareness, more informed conversations with healthcare professionals, and greater confidence in managing personal health.
EXPERIENCE BEHIND THE VISION
A multidisciplinary team.
RAO SCOUT draws on a multidisciplinary team and advisors with experience in engineering, cardiac care, critical care nursing, electrophysiology, life sciences, and military medicine.
Our founder brings more than 20 years of experience managing complex programs and technical teams across military, government, and business environments. Together, these perspectives guide our approach to sensing technology, usability, security, and future user needs.
CONNECT WITH US
Help us bring that vision to life.
RAO SCOUT is currently under development. We welcome conversations with research collaborators, healthcare organizations, pilot partners, and supporters who share our vision.
