GraphQL Saving Lives - Leveraging Federation and Domain Experts to Help People Beat Addiction

Health Tech comes with unique challenges, from data privacy laws, mission-critical uptime, to clinical validation. Further complicated by an industry resistant to change, weighed down by complex legacy enterprise systems and data silos.

Learn valuable insights from our journey as an addiction care startup, transitioning from a monolith MVP engineered in isolation, to GraphQL Federation built alongside clinicians.

By involving domain experts in design thinking exercises, we not only constructed subgraphs with build-in clinical validation, data governance, and security, but also transformed our clinical end-users into champions for change.

A founder's journey from success to homeless - reimagining addiction care to help people heal.

As a bullied kid, I found refuge in computers and taught myself to code at 8. By 26, I had two successful tech exits and moved to NYC. A weekend party habit led to daily drug use and a spiral to heroin and homelessness. In 2016, after a friend’s overdose woke me up. I checked myself into rehab and understood I was there for a bigger purpose.

Healthcare is very broken. From legacy systems, inefficiencies, and poor customer experience. What if we could dramatically improve care models by leveraging data, personalizing treatment, and creating beautiful patient experiences?
