For a patient or family, Nome delivers a free therapy eligibility assessment in 1–2 weeks, followed by an execution-ready action plan. For clinicians and foundations, Nome functions as an intelligent scientific program manager — handling the orchestration complexity that has historically made personalized drug development inaccessible outside of elite academic medical centers.The platform is modality-agnostic, with current focus on antisense oligonucleotides and gene therapies. Nome also operates as a preclinical CRO, offering target design, toxicology studies, and pre-clinical manufacturing services for rare genetic diseases.Founded by Steven Ringel — a rare disease patient, former Sema4, GeneDx, and Tempus operator, and founder of the Kizuna Foundation (foundation to develop retinal gene therapies) — Nome emerged from stealth in October 2025 backed by Twelve Below, Refactor Capital, and Inflect Health. | $2.7M | Seed | Oct 15, 2025 |  |

| Ivy Clinicians | Ivy Clinicians is the first to map the entire US emergency medicine employer market. We have made that information searchable and filterable so emergency clinicians can connect with the right in-house recruiters.Ivy is led by physicians, PAs, and entrepreneurs dedicated to improving the healthcare job market. Prior to Ivy, it was difficult forclinicians to find out which group staffs an ER, who the right contact person is, and what the working conditions are at the site. For recruiters, finding clinician matches was difficult because providers don’t have a simple, secure way to indicate interest in particular jobs and to communicate their priorities. Ivy is designed to connect clinicians with in-house recruiters so both find what they’re looking for, spam-free. Ivy Clinicians is free for physicians, PAs and nurse practitioners. Ivy charges employers less than 2% of first year salary when a clinician is hired from an Ivy match. Ivy keeps costs low, is free until a clinician is hired, and has no hidden (eg: retention) fees.Ivy is where clinicians go first. | $310K | Pre-Seed | Oct 07, 2023 |  |
