BLEAN

Menstrual cups and discs are designed to make periods more sustainable and friendly, until it’s time to rinse one away from home. Blean is developing a portable cleaning system that allows users to rinse their reusable menstrual products privately inside a public restroom stall, without relying on sinks, water bottles, wipes, or toilet paper. It makes on-the-go menstrual care simpler and more comfortable, so users can choose reusable products without sacrificing privacy or confidence.

CAREHOME TECHNOLOGIES

CareHome Technologies helps senior care facilities spot medication adherence trends before it's too late, prolonging resident room stays and improving staff turnover. This is done by providing admins with real-time analytics derived from smart pill dispensers connected to a scheduling app for caregivers. 

COMPLIANCY

Minimize effort. Maximize growth. Compliance as a service. Built for scale-ups.

SOC 2 has become table stakes for selling to enterprise customers, but early-stage scale-ups often lack the time, resources, and expertise to manage compliance without huge opportunity costs. Compliancy is purpose-built for scale-ups, combining Compliance as a Service with a process-driven approach that manages the complexities of compliance while minimizing the effort required from the customer—so growing companies can stay focused on building their business.

IRB TRIALS LINK

Clinical trial eligibility criteria read at a postgraduate level, so sites waste time and money screening unqualified patients. It's expensive! IRB Trials Link screens patients by phone, in plain language, before a site ever gets involved. Sites pay only for qualified leads: less wasted time and money, resulting in faster-filling trials.

OURBOROS PHOTONICS

Power is now one of the biggest costs of running an AI datacenter, and moving information between chips with electricity is a large culprit.​ The fix is to move data with light, but the lasers today that are capable are made from a scarce, expensive material with only a few suppliers. Our chip starts with a commodity laser and transforms light to the color datacenters need. We don't depend on scarce materials, and our design wastes less power getting there.

REAL OB

Ultrasound is essential to pregnancy care. Every clinic, regardless of location, should have access to it. Real OB develops and implements AI ultrasound tools that enable frontline providers to perform accurate prenatal ultrasound assessments at the point of care.

THERATAS

Post-mastectomy and lumpectomy recovery has always meant waiting on the next appointment. We put purpose-built support in patients' hands: a hand-held massage device designed for the breast line, chest wall, and armpit, so patients can find relief at home, on their own schedule, and feel more like themselves again.

TRIALON

TrialON is an AI-powered platform for end-to-end clinical trial startup orchestration. It helps hospitals and health systems automate workflows, coordinate teams, and use operational intelligence to open trials faster and improve research performance.
