About Us
Healthcare is in crisis: all new medicines need to undergo clinical trials to show they’re safe and effective. But today’s clinical trial infrastructure is stuck in the past, and the cost of developing new medicines has skyrocketed as a result. Patients have to wait longer and pay more for new treatments.
Our mission is to fix this; we use software to help innovative companies run faster, more reliable, and patient-friendly clinical trials. We’re still a young company, but we’ve already had a big impact. Since founding the company in March 2021 we’ve helped run over 70 clinical trials involving tens of thousands of patients, earning over $4m in revenue.
We raised a $6m seed round from some great investors including Firstminute and Seedcamp to power the next stage of our growth.
