The U.S. healthcare system is incredibly complex and frustrating to navigate. It's impossible to know what your insurance will cover and how much care will cost. Bills and claims are confusing and unexpectedly high, and 40% of them contain errors or are incorrectly denied. Yet most people are left to figure it out on their own. We're using AI to make access to healthcare and insurance experts 500x more efficient and their services 10x better by turning into a product that can be connected to all your healthcare data, is instantaneous, and runs proactively in the background. As a result, we can go direct to consumers - you! - with a very affordable product and a free tier accessible to anyone. Granted works and advocates for you - not your employer, insurance, or healthcare providers. We'll help you throughout your entire family healthcare journey - no matter your insurance or life phase. We're in stealth mode with exceptional user satisfaction and are working hard to scale and make this available to anyone later this year. We're looking for hyper-talented and ambitious individuals looking to do the best work of their lives and help bring this to 100s millions of Americans. wellfound.com/blog/from-the-founder-or-julien-nakache-founder-of-medbill-ai

Parker is the AI creative director built to produce the highest-performing ads on the internet. Every company needs to grow. That's not new. What is new is that AI is about to create more companies than the world has ever seen, and every single one of them will eventually need to find customers. That problem isn't going anywhere. If anything, it's getting bigger. There are thousands of ad agencies built to solve it. A handful are great. Most are honestly pretty bad. And none of them scale past the people who work there. The idea behind Parker is simple: what if there's one agency that's as good as the best in the world, except it runs in software instead of people? We launched. We went viral. We've grown 10x since January. Top brands like LiquidIV, Gruns, and Legends now rely on Parker to create ads that actually win. We're not building just another AI tool. We're building the default answer to the question every company eventually asks: who's going to help us grow? We're a small team of people who deeply love their craft. Engineers who love to build, creative strategists who live for a great ad, and marketers obsessed with growth. We don't just work on this. We love what we're working on. If that sounds like you, we'd like to meet you.
