Promptly Health
Full-time
Remote
Portugal

About Promptly Promptly is building the first patient-centered global evidence network, focused on real-world data sharing and monetization. By partnering with a select group of organizations, we generate new knowledge from harmonized datasets, using patient-reported data and patient-generated digital biomarkers in a secure and privacy-preserving way. We provide valuable insights to leading healthcare providers, insurers, and life-science companies in various therapeutic areas, such as cardiometabolic, oncology, and immunology. Operating in 10 countries, we strive to improve healthcare while lowering costs for many patients every day using Real World Evidence.

🎯 Our Purpose We aim to empower every patient and healthcare organization globally with evidence about care outcomes. We believe that denying patients better care due to limited data access is unethical in today's technologically advanced world. We feel that tech companies have a moral obligation to make the right evidence available to healthcare organizations to help prevent lost lives, care complications, and treatment failures. Our mission is to promote better, more affordable healthcare for patients every day by making health outcomes accessible.

🚀 The Momentum We're experiencing rapid growth and expanding quickly, with support from well-known VC investors. Our plan in the coming years includes entering new markets in Europe and Latin America, reaching more patients with diverse healthcare needs. It's an exciting time to join us!
