Vera Health - Accelerating evidence-based healthcare

TLDR: We're empowering doctors and researchers with instant access to up-to-date evidence-based answers. Our platform cuts through the noise to deliver trustworthy medical information 10x faster, revolutionizing clinical decision support and accelerating research breakthroughs. If you're interested, we'd love to connect. You can also sign up for our waitlist here.

The Problem

  • Medical knowledge doubles every 73 days, creating massive information overload for healthcare professionals. This exponential growth impacts doctors' ability to provide the most current, evidence-based care.
  • Despite AI's potential to address this challenge, healthcare lags in adoption due to a lack of trust in existing solutions and challenges in data collection.

Our Solution

We tackle the core issue: access to current, trustworthy medical evidence.

Our system:

  • Maintains a vast, weekly-updated repository of over 250 million documents from authoritative sources.
  • Employs a network of specialized AI models to retrieve and synthesize the most accurate data.
  • Implements rigorous safeguards to ensure the highest level of reliability.

The Team

We're Taieb and Maxime, recent Yale & MIT alumni passionate about transforming healthcare through technology. Our combined expertise spans healthtech, bioengineering, and data science, providing us with a unique perspective on both the technical and medical aspects of our solution. This has allowed us to build the most robust and trustworthy solution in the market.

Fun fact: We did our YC interview during the MIT Commencement ceremony, wearing our graduation regalia. (Pro tip: Don't postpone the YC interview, even for graduation!)

Next Steps

We've rolled out a closed beta to specialty physicians and biotech researchers, and the feedback has been exceptional. Users are consistently amazed by the accuracy of sources retrieved and the reliability of the insights provided.

We're now expanding our beta program and seeking partnerships with leading healthcare and research institutions. If you're a healthcare professional interested in streamlining your access to medical knowledge, we'd love to connect. You can also sign up for our waitlist here.
