Co-Founder and CEO at @clara_health: Building Palantir for Healthcare
Tel Aviv, Israel
Joined July 2016
Highly bullish on this approach! This is why we’re building a healthcare-focused, forward-deployed AI transformation company.
Enterprise AI today is $$$ wasted on stalled pilots + decks. Percepta is GC’s new arm to actually operationalize: frontier research (LLMs + RLHF + optimization), data readiness, workflow redesign, and CEO-level buy-in. Already live across F500, gov, healthcare.

Probably the most helpful investor you could have on your cap table! Always reads the updates, always makes time to help, no matter how busy. If you’re building something exciting, you should talk to Ben!
I’d love to angel invest in a few more companies before 2025 ends. If you think I’d make a good addition to your cap table, reach out, DMs are open.

Can't keep up with all the new models coming out? We'll handle performing the best parsing for you, so you don't need to spend time testing and evaluating. Thanks @talhof8 and @clara_health for the shoutout!
One of the more annoying parts of building healthcare AI is how often you end up switching vendors and retesting models. For PDF parsing alone, we’ve had to bounce between GPT-4o, Mistral, Gemini, classic OCR engines, and dedicated hybrid models - until we finally settled on

If an investor gets spooked by you doing manual Collison installations, they’re probably not the kind you want on the cap table anyway.

Medical breakthrough in Israel! At Ichilov Medical Center, on July 21, doctors performed Israel’s first-ever minimally invasive brain surgery through the eye socket – removing a rare skull base tumor without opening the skull. Thanks to the teamwork of neurosurgery,

סיפור מעניין, לכאורה, על תפקידה של Onavo הישראלית לאחר שנרכשה על ידי פייסבוק:
Facebook once bought a VPN app for $120M and turned it into a surveillance tool that spied on 33M+ users' entire phones for years. This app helped Zuck buy WhatsApp for a whopping $19B and break Snapchat's encryption. Thread

Linus used to speak to engineers in 2012 the way I speak to LLMs now.

Who knew doing things that don’t scale… well, don’t scale. Good trouble though, as usage and demand keep growing.

Herd mentality among investors is a glaring red flag IMO. Investors who can’t think for themselves land on our shared blacklist spreadsheet. Bring genuine conviction, even when it’s a ‘no’, and you earn our lasting respect.
