We are building HaploHub, a SaaS platform for genetic testing labs, concierge medical practices, and payer/providers. It predicts disease risk based on genetic models, securely manages patient genetic data, and runs common genetic inference algorithms - all without requiring users to write code.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

I live in San Francisco, CA, and the company is based here with a remote team.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where the healthcare and genetics innovation ecosystem is concentrated, and being remote-friendly lets us tap into talent outside the area.
