Roon

Roon is thrilled to partner with Olympic Gold Medalist Tara Lipinski on Roon Fertility. After her own experience with infertility, she teamed up with Roon to make sure other individuals on the fertility journey have trusted answers to all of their questions. "Lipinski says Roon, a platform that contains expert answers to thousands of questions for those navigating fertility with short-form videos, is a resource she wishes was available to her during her own struggle...'It’s just a place that you can go so there's no more rabbit holes and searching on Google, and that's where I was for years.'"

Roon gives people around the world a chance to hear directly from world class doctors who would otherwise be hard to get an appointment with. Today they’re launching in the fertility space, adding tons of expertise from health experts like Brian A. Levine, MD, MS, FACOG of top fertility clinic CCRM. And it’s all done in easy-to-understand, bite-size, Q&A style videos, like TikTok from doctors. Kudos to Roon founders Vikram Bhaskaran, Arun Ranganathan, and Rohan Ramakrishna, MD.

Announcing...Roon Fertility!

When Reid Hoffman and his team invited us to the “Masters of Scale” podcast, we were thrilled and honored. Often referred to as the 'Philosopher-Entrepreneur,' he provides a refreshing contrast to the focus on technology for its own sake. Reid has been interested in the possibility that one day everyone could have a useful and empathetic medical assistant in their pockets. In this episode Arun Ranganathan and I workshop (we show up around minute 4) some of the key questions we're tackling such as trust, access, scaling medical time & expertise and placing the right guardrails around AI in medicine. The discussion highlighted a tension between AI's emerging role in healthcare and traditional trust-building methods. Reid sees AI as a promising tool for physicians, potentially serving as real-time scientific peer review or aiding in patient triage. However, he emphasizes that accelerating trust in AI must be anchored in time-honored, often offline elements that people continue to hold in high regard (doctor credentials, real academic medical training and affiliation with trusted institutions). This is a sentiment also shared by my co-founder Rohan Ramakrishna, MD At Pinterest, we built a graph of people's offline interests by letting real people create collections of things they loved and we used computer vision technology and AI to scale human curation. At Roon we are also starting with a similar premise but with an eye on medical curation  – real trusted doctors answering questions at the core and AI to scale doctor access and time. While building a new network from the ground up is challenging, we look to Pinterest and LinkedIn (which Reid built) as north stars. They demonstrated the gaps in traditional social media and the potential for new, purpose-built platforms. For healthcare, we need a clean slate to prioritize curation and trust from the outset.
