XRlabs, a London-based Surgical Intelligence company founded by neurosurgeon Dr. Ali Haddad in 2024, has raised €7.48 million ($8.4 million) in Seed funding to bring AI into the operating room. The round was led by Palo Alto-based venture firm Playground Global, with participation from London-based HealthTech investor Eka Ventures.
Omar Ishrak, former Medtronic CEO and Intel board chairman, has joined XRlabs as Chair of its Board of Directors. The company's modular, device-agnostic software sits as an external AI layer across existing surgical systems, using computer vision and deep learning to transform live video from surgical scopes, navigation telemetry, and pre-operative CT and MRI imaging into a single real-time, anatomy-aware view of each procedure.
XRlabs offers two core products - SIM for patient-specific planning and rehearsal, and SurgicalOS for intraoperative intelligence. The company's platform has been deployed across over 100 surgical cases in three continents, and it aims to expand its AI surgical understanding infrastructure in every operating room.
