About Neon

The USA spends 20% of our GDP on healthcare. And 1 / 3 of that is administrative workflows : like phone calls, data entry, and endless back-and-forth between doctors, insurance companies, and patients.

That's $1,500,000,000 of spend on mundane jobs that can now be automated.

Neon is building the automation platform for healthcare : tackling this $1,500,000,000 of administrative bloat.

We're started by tech veterans, YC and MIT alums , and backed by top Silicon Valley investors .

We're profitable and growing fast with 7+ figure customer contracts.

Our vision is to become the AI automation platform for healthcare. We wont stop until weve become a company on the scale of Palantir ($200B+ market cap), selling advanced automation solutions massive enterprises.

In the future, when a hospital, health insurer, or pharma company exec wonders, how can I automate this administrative function? they will immediately think of Neon.

Team Personality

Were a rare blend of mission-driven capitalists .

Working like an athlete

Were incredibly ambitious. We are sprinting at this market opportunity playing to win.

We believe this cadence is optimal for modern knowledge work. Remote work is not for us.

Frequent offsites

We spend one week every month offsite in beautiful places like Tahoe, Squamish, Mendocino, the Santa Cruz mountains, and Monterrey. We ship an incredible amount of product on these offsites. And we have a blast climbing, swimming, surfing, and otherwise enjoying these beautiful places.

Rediscover the magic of coding late into the night, in the zone. Side by side with a team that through their example of excellence is inspiring you to reach your potential.
