What Nightingale does
Nightingale is the clinical decision support solution for evidence-based interventions. We're committed to ensuring that service providers for individuals with autism and related disorders are equipped to administer high quality, personalized treatment. According to the CDC, 1 in 68 children in the U.S. are now diagnosed with autism, contributing to an estimated 1.5 million Americans living with the condition. Although autism has no known cure or scientifically proven pharmaceutical treatment, its symptoms can be abated and maintained through rigorous evidence-based interventions like applied behavior analysis, speech-language pathology, and occupational therapy. Nightingale provides these practitioners with a suite of tools for HIPAA-compliant data collection,reporting, and analytics that can be customized to any curriculum and used in any setting. By equipping service providers with a convenient and user-friendly solution for data management and analytics, Nightingale frees up more of their time for creating high-quality curriculums and working with clients.

App for managing care of autistic students
We are building Nightingale, a clinical decision support app that helps practitioners for autistic individuals manage evidence-based interventions. It offers HIPAA-compliant tools for data collection, reporting, and analytics tailored to therapies like applied behavior analysis and speech therapy, so providers spend less time on paperwork and more time delivering personalized treatment.
We live in San Francisco, CA and plan to base the company here after YC as well.
We chose San Francisco because it's where we live and it's a hub for healthcare and education tech innovation. Being here also helps us connect directly with practitioners and institutions serving autistic students.
