Sunfish

Thank you Business Insider for putting us on the list: "Top Fintechs of 2024!" ?? More and more, building a family requires the support of science, but an IVF baby costs about $70,000. Today, we estimate as many as one in three couples will turn to IVF, surrogacy, egg/sperm donors, or egg freezing. Sunfish is here to help patients protect, pay for, and navigate their journey. And most importantly, per BI: "Sunfish is using new types of fertility data to pave the way for new financial tools to be developed using ML/AI". ?? We wouldn't be here without an incredible team and supporters: Michael Pigott, Bryan Rubeo, Angela Rastegar, Dev Sethi, Ego Faylona, Lydia Fehrenbacher, Donny Chin, Margaret Orenstein, Jessica Karr, Jessica Peltz-Zatulove, Michael J. Miraflor, Kate Beardsley, Alana Podrx, Leila Yari, MPH, Amanda Holland, Heather Hund, Robin Bot-Miller, Jordy Albert, Josh Diamond, Dan Titcomb, Tommy Nicholas, Russ Heddleston, Giancarlo Stanton, Andrew Sherman, Michael Perry, Laura Spiekerman, Alana Podrx, Alex Furmansky, Marcos Fernandez, Drew Glover, Alex Harris, Dina Burkitbayeva, Kyle Daley, Kate Adamson, Amber Cooper MD, MSCI, FACOG, Jason Yeh, Lora Shahine, MD, FACOG, Mark Leondires, Vicken Sepilian, MD, FACOG, and many more! https://lnkd.in/gFMaGDdd

What an event! Our CEO got to speak at #SFTechWeek yesterday alongside Fiat Ventures and Coyote Ventures to discuss how we make fertility care and assisted reproduction more accessible. Our software helps patients move forward with care, and navigate the logistical and financial elements of family building. We've now seen patients at over 50 clinics around the country request the novel "IVF Success Program" to help navigate #IVF! Thank you to our team - Michael Pigott, Bryan Rubeo, Margaret Clark, Dev Sethi, Giancarlo Stanton, Lindsay Donnelly, Aixa Silva, Ego Faylona, Donny Chin, and many more!

We are so happy every time we get to hear of a new success story from our patients. What we do is hard work and we are thankful the VC community and Business Insider recognized what we do!

The Pacific NW Fertility Team has been wonderful to work with and we are so excited to share the IVF Success Program is live in Seattle! Thank you Susan Christofferson and the rest of the team, as well as the Sunfish team members that made this happen - Bryan Rubeo, Dev Sethi, Margaret Orenstein, Giancarlo Stanton, Michael Pigott, Donny Chin, Ego Faylona, and many more!

I'm excited that Sunfish is partnering with Evvy and many other female-focused companies for #EqualResearchDay, a campaign highlighting the major gaps in medical research related to women's health. As we help women and families better understand their gestational age and chances of success through #IVF - we are pushing for more data and clarity on #fertility!

Male factor infertility is increasingly impacting couples, with declining sperm counts posing significant challenges. ???? Our latest article delves into the causes and implications of this trend, offering insights and financial guidance to support those on their journey to parenthood. ????

What is going on with women's health? ?? As the demand for fertility services grows (for women, men, and LGBTQIA+ families) we are seeing a rapidly evolving set of solutions to help people pay for IVF, surrogacy, egg freezing and more. But - the US still has far less coverage for family building compared to other western countries. ?? We are so excited to share this podcast episode ?? hosted by Dr. Lora Shahine, MD, FACOG featuring our CEO Angela Rastegar on how Sunfish is creating solutions and leading the way to protect families using IVF, with our IVF Success Program! Listen in to learn how Sunfish helps patients and medical providers offer payment solutions and solves for high, unpredictable costs. ?? Rastegar shares our story and our solutions on this episode, "The Real Price of Fertilty Treatments". #IVF #fintech #financing #startup #healthtech https://lnkd.in/dxd5vsBD

Egg freezing is a growing option and great backup plan - but it's not a guarantee. ?? Success rates are highly correlated with the age at which you freeze, with <30 working best. Yet, most women start at 35-37. I'm excited that Finish Line Features and director Robin Hauser are covering this important discussion with their documentary, 'Thaw', and am so honored to be a small part of it - last week I got to sit with them to discuss the cost and financial resources for women (esp those in their 20s- early 30s!) who wish to put their fertility on ice. ?? This was my first time being interviewed for a full film -- I was so nervous but the team did an amazing job asking thoughtful questions about Sunfish, our new IVF Success Guarantee, and #fertility financing! Stay tuned for the release! ?? #fertility #eggfreezing #IVF #healthtech #fintech #famtech
