True Ventures led the most recent Series A financing. Social Capital joined the Series A, along with investors from the seed round. Jon Callaghan has joined the Murj Board of Directors with the closing of the Series A.

Founded by former Apple product manager and top-performing Medtronic sales representative Todd Butka, Murj aims to liberate device clinics from paper processes and other ineffective device management tools, freeing clinicians to focus on what truly matters - caring for patients.

Today's implantable cardiac devices such as pacemakers, loop recorders and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) continually generate important patient health and technical data. Current data management tools are inadequate and clinicians are overwhelmed by the burden of managing device data, both remotely and when patients visit the office. The lack of effective tools makes it difficult for clinics to track patients and capture reimbursements, and an unexpected event such as a device recall can create an enormous paperwork burden.

"As a field representative working with electrophysiologists for over a decade, I was dismayed by the inefficiency of monitoring cardiac devices," said Todd Butka, CEO of Murj. "From my experience at Apple, I saw the tremendous potential for well-designed technology to impact the care of patients with cardiac devices. Our solution dramatically improves clinic productivity, while providing clinicians with previously unavailable insight about their clinic and patients."

Murj is a cloud-based, HIPAA-compliant application accessed via a secure web browser. Murj consolidates data from all implantable cardiac device types and manufacturers into an elegant, robust platform that delivers rapid clinical care and deep patient insight. Murj will be on display in booth #331 at the Heart Rhythm Scientific Sessions (HRS) conference taking place May 10-13 in Chicago, Ill.

"At True, we invest in entrepreneurs that show dedication to long-term market leadership and desire to have a broad, lasting impact; Murj fits this profile perfectly," said Jon Callaghan, co-founder of True Ventures. "As implantable and wearable cardiac devices proliferate, the need for advanced tools to manage the data flowing from these devices is paramount."

"True Ventures has been a terrific partner to help us uncover the potential of our technology. We couldn't be happier to have their participation in our growth," added Butka.
