When we first met @colintluce and @basistheory, they had a vision for tech that could create a *new* transaction lever for payments: modular, portable, payment tokens.
Processor-agnostic payments has arrived with the advent of AI commerce; they are capturing the opportunity.

Rare to get to back a founding team again after a successful partnership. We are thrilled to return to back @Varunkrish_ and @RahulShivkumar in the seed of @WithAssured.
🚀 Assured has raised a $6M seed round led by @firstround, with @KindredVentures, BragielBrothers, and the founders of Atria & Grow Therapy.
Our AI platform automates credentialing, licensing & payer enrollment, cutting delays that sideline providers and keep patients from care.
honored to back you @iScienceLuvr, @humanscotti, and @SophontAI!
the sophont team are training open medical science models for research scientists, clinicians, and developers - along with learning/education, this is one of the most immediate and important uses of AI for all people. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Pumped to share that we are leading a $9.2M seed round into @SophontAI, a company designing open knowledge systems for medical data.
Led by @iScienceLuvr and @humanscotti!
In the past few months, @SophontAI is already delivering SOTA performance in their first medical specialty modalities, and working to bring it all together systematically.
We are excited by the open approach and commitment to increasing transparency and access in healthcare.
The human body is not independent, siloed systems, but a highly interconnected organism. Only today can we design knowledge systems that are open, multimodal, and multi specialty.
@SophontAI will empower researchers in med tech, pharma R&D, clinicians, and developers to deliver better, more proactive care.
This is a hard problem, and the @SophontAI team is uniquely up to the task.
The founders worked together as researchers at Stability AI, where they led the Neuroimagjng and AI division and founded @MedARC_AI, a leading open medical research initiative.
An open, multimodal medical foundation model can synthesize data across specialties into a single holistic model.
@SophontAI is delivering on this opportunity.

Tomorrow in NYC, we’re teaming up with @CompanyVentures and founders from @heartbeat, @joinsummer, and more to talk about the AI stack
Healthcare has gone from a laggard in digital transformation to one of the fastest-moving sectors
