Modern medical reference app for providers

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built a website and mobile app that helps healthcare providers prescribe, dispense, and educate patients about their medications more effectively. Our product organizes prescribing information and clinical references tailored for clinicians, making it easier to manage and access drug info in practice.

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

We live in Minneapolis, MN, with some team members remote. After YC, the company will remain based in Minneapolis with remote work.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Minneapolis is our home and the core of our team. It's a good hub for healthcare IT, and we've already established operations here. Remote work allows us flexibility without moving.
