As Jimmy Buffett once said - 'we are the people your parents warned you about.' Just feel like getting a drink. Not sure whom to call or tired of the BS.

Bunkerhill Health is a Sequoia-backed company on a mission to facilitate and streamline the AI development efforts of academic researchers and to increase the adoption of AI in healthcare in order to help doctors catch deadly diseases earlier. We have built a consortium of research institutions (Stanford, Johns Hopkins, UCSF, Harvard, etc.) whose researchers develop and validate AI algorithms seamlessly under our legal umbrella (weeks of setup time for a new project when using the Bunkerhill consortium, versus a year or more for projects outside the consortium). Bunkerhill then manages the FDA clearance and commercial sales process for the algorithms that these institutions develop and validate through the consortium. We’ve signed commercial contracts and deployed algorithms with some of the world’s leading health systems — UCSF, Mayo Clinic, Georgetown/MedStar, and several others. These algorithms help doctors identify patients earlier than has otherwise been possible, leading to better treatment outcomes (early clinical screening for heart disease, pancreatic cancer, etc.). We’re backed by world-class investors, including Sequoia, Felicis, SVAngel, Max Levchin (co-founder of PayPal and Affirm), and Y Combinator.

UnVale is where the next generation of storytellers develop entire worlds of content, grow their audience, and publish the next big hit. Aspiring writers, illustrators, and animators can grow their fanbase from day one as they build the next Star Wars, Game of Thrones, or Marvel Comic Universe. While social media platforms prioritize short-form video content created by influencers, we will be the new community for creatives to do the time-consuming work of worldbuilding and story craft in public. By breaking down long-form content into easy-to-digest pieces, they can grow an audience with every release from day one. A fanbase is the most powerful tool a creator can have. Growing a following is key to successfully self-publishing your work, and it signals to publishers that what you’ve created has captured an audience’s attention. UnVale provides this growth as you develop content, making your creative process a way of being discovered–while keeping you motivated as you develop the next culture-defining story.
