  • Inner Logic

    Participated · Seed · Jul 2026

    Inner Logic develops a simulation and data platform that allows device manufacturers to design, test, and validate procedural devices across thousands of virtual patients grounded in real clinical and procedural data. The company’s infrastructure aims to shift exploratory device development from physical prototypes and cadaver labs into in silico testing to accelerate iteration and broaden patient coverage. Founders include CEO Tito Porras, MD; CTO Mathias Unberath, PhD; and Chief Robotics Officer Axel Krieger, PhD, who collectively have authored over 400 peer-reviewed publications and are named inventors on more than 40 patents. Inner Logic has demonstrated its technology by training AI in simulation for orthopedic trauma and deploying it successfully on real hardware and patient anatomy, and by completing key steps of an autonomous gallbladder removal in a live animal model. The company is positioning its platform to support the development and validation of intelligent and autonomous procedural systems as they move toward clinical deployment. The announced financial position includes an $11.5 million seed round to advance product development and scaling.

  • Greatly Health

    Participated · Seed · Apr 2026

    Greatly Health offers a virtual platform that delivers evidence-based supportive therapies—live expert-led group sessions in exercise, yoga, tai chi, and mindfulness—alongside personalized care planning, symptom tracking, and ongoing coaching. Its program was developed and clinically validated at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, where a randomized trial led by the company’s co-founders demonstrated substantial improvements in outcomes, including a 16% absolute survival benefit at two years and large reductions in hospitalizations and treatment disruptions. Greatly serves patients directly and via sponsored programs, including a partnership with a global life sciences company and a patient advocacy group supporting roughly 200 metastatic breast cancer patients. The company aims to expand access through partnerships with health plans, oncology providers, and life sciences firms, and to shift integrative oncology from out-of-pocket or philanthropy-funded care to a reimbursed component of standard cancer treatment. Financially, Greatly recently raised a $4 million seed round to support team growth, technology enhancements, and expansion of its clinical offerings.
