Solace is a healthcare advocacy marketplace that connects patients and families to experts who help them understand and take charge of their personal health
By harnessing the power of human connection through technology, Solace is transforming healthcare in the U.S.
Healthcare in the U.S. is fundamentally broken. The system is so complex that 88% of U.S. adults do not have the health literacy necessary to navigate it without help. By helping people work with health advocates, Solace serves as an integral, personal support layer that helps individuals and families make informed decisions and achieve better outcomes.
Using proprietary technology to match patients with experienced advocates, Solace cuts through the red tape of healthcare and helps people get the clarity and confidence they deserve.
Solace is a Series B startup founded in 2022 and backed by Inspired Capital, Craft Ventures, Torch Capital, Menlo Ventures, and SignalFire. We are a lean, fully remote U.S. team distributed coast-to-coast.
