Things I Think About My Kid’s Health
I talk a lot about Summer Health but I'm also the mom of 3 kids under the age of 5. In case you're wondering, being a…

Ellen D. shared thisI wasn't feeling great this morning. My kids have been sick all week, and so I knew it was going to come for me, too. But instead of panicking about how I was going to squeeze a telehealth visit into my chaotic day, I seamlessly used Doctronic while I sat down for my team onboarding. It was a magical experience, and one I want for everybody. How can we make that happen? Well, we need to expand the reach of the business. We're hiring the most ambitious, forward-thinking people to join us on our mission to bring AI care to everyone. You will have a chance to work with the best team in healthcare on frontier models and applications of technology. https://lnkd.in/g7vw4ptE

Ellen D. reposted thisEllen D. reposted thisI have to admit: it feels weird waking up and not heading to the Publicis offices this morning. After six years at Heartbeat and Publicis Health, I’m incredibly grateful for the people, experiences, and lessons that shaped such an important chapter of my career. I’m excited to share that I’ve started a new role as Partnerships Operations Manager at Doctronic! This is an exciting new chapter for me, and I’m looking forward to learning, growing, and contributing in a completely new environment. A huge thank you to everyone at Heartbeat and Publicis who made the past six years so meaningful — I’ll always be grateful for the relationships and memories. Excited for what’s ahead!

Ellen D. reposted thisEllen D. reposted thisThere is a ham somewhere in Spain right now that is older than some junior engineers. Just hanging from the ceiling. No urgency. No roadmap. Nobody asking the ham for an ETA. The ham is simply becoming more valuable by remaining completely motionless in a dark room. Imagine trying that at work. “What did you accomplish this quarter?” “I continued to be ham.” “And next quarter?” “More ham.” Incredible. Nobody tells the ham to move faster. Nobody asks whether the ham can take on a little more. Nobody puts the ham in a meeting. They just periodically walk into the room, inspect it, nod thoughtfully, and leave. The ham has achieved something the rest of us never will: complete professional authority through stillness. I think the ham has figured something out. Patience. Conviction. Salt. Anyway Doctronic is hiring. We cannot promise you the lifestyle of a Spanish ham. But we can promise interesting work with very good people. DM me. Ham mentality preferred.

Ellen D. shared thisWant to sell the most talked-about product in healthcare? Here's why you would be crazy not to join Doctronic right now: 🚀 You're selling something nobody else has. We're is the first and only AI legally authorized to practice medicine. 📈 Buyers are already calling. We have insane traction and more inbound dealflow than we know what to do with. 🏗️ You write the playbook. We're young and scrappy and you can own any/every account. 💥 Your deals change healthcare. Every contract you sign puts an AI doctor in front of millions of people who can't get a doctor's appointment today. You'll close big deals, and those deals will matter. ⚡ The timing is right. We're Series B, well-funded, and growing fast. It's early enough that you'll shape the company, and we're already big enough to win serious deals. Come join us - LFG!!! https://lnkd.in/gAJnD6tb

Ellen D. reacted on thisEllen D. reacted on thisI was in the Bloomberg News studio in London this morning. Q3 was the most hectic quarter in Legora's history. We added 800 new customers in three months and now work with more than 2,300 across 80+ countries. We also added more ARR this quarter than our total ARR at the end of 2025. I was asked the jobs question, and my answer hasn't changed: our customers are hiring more lawyers. Legal is supply constrained. If you could review every contract, you would. If you could run full diligence on every asset before it goes to investment committee, you would. Better tools mean more of that work gets done, and a lawyer still owns the judgment. We talked about junior lawyers wondering whether they need to learn to code. With large language models, the programming language is English. I'm not especially good with words. Lawyers are, and they turn out to be some of the best drivers of our product. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I think this is the best time in history to be a lawyer. Thanks Tom Mackenzie for having me on The Opening Trade. Full interview below.

Ellen D. reacted on thisEllen D. reacted on thisBeyond thrilled to announce that I've been promoted to CLO (Chief Linkedin Officer) to fill our 19 Open Roles, or until someone in HR asks me to stop. It's been a wild journey. Two hours ago I was just a designer who occasionally mentioned hiring and dabbled in color theory. Today I've fully evolved into someone who actually posts on Linkedin unironically. I couldn't have gotten here without my team, my ADD pulling me away from my designs and responsibilities, and honestly, the roles themselves, which are just really good: Senior AI Engineer, Senior Product Engineer, anyone good with computers, and 16 more. Grateful, humbled, and slightly concerned about myself. Comments have the list. Onward and upward, and mostly upward!

Drift is instantly the world's most technologically advanced luxury travel agency, built on the foundation we spent the last 5 years perfecting at Safara. As part of this evolution, we're sunsetting Safara so we can be all in on Drift. Never fear my fellow Safarans: your Safara profile, bookings, and balance are all waiting for you across the rainbow when you log in to Drift for the first time (links below). The app will feel quite familiar... A few highlights of the superpowers Drift gives travel advisors: 🤖 Create your own AI virtual assistant: give it a name and a personality, set the rules for how it handles clients and hotels, and decide what it does on its own versus what needs their approval 🧠 Watch trips, itineraries, your CRM, etc all update automatically thanks to your personal AI agent 🏝️ Invite clients to self-book via a beautiful web portal and iOS app ⚡ Book any hotel globally in seconds, including all preferred hotel programs and consortia ✈️ Send bookable quotes connected to live pricing (no more manual requoting) Drift is for experienced travel advisors only. If you're an experienced advisor interested in learning about what we're building, give me a shout: doug@godrift.com Drift Client App: https://lnkd.in/gSEgu6Pe Drift Web: https://www.godrift.com Huge shoutout to 😸 Ruo Hong Anna Wangler for all their hard work developing Drift in stealth, and to Madeline Butler who's fingerprints are all over this launch as well.

New founder Q&A on our site! Love what Ralph Betesh is building at Coverdash! Anyone who has insured a small business knows the drill: a phone call, a PDF, and a week of waiting. Coverdash turned that into a few clicks — and then put it inside the platforms small businesses already use, so coverage gets offered at the moment of need instead of chased down later. That last part is what got our attention. Insurance is a distribution business more than a product business, and owning the point of sale is a durable advantage in a market this fragmented. Link below — worth a few minutes.

At Bread and Butter Ventures, we're in our 7th year of investing in digital health. I've been hearing a lot of feedback lately from both funds and founders alike that VC funding for tech-enabled care delivery is fewer and far between these days. I'm super bullish on tech-enabled care as a component of a digital health portfolio because I believe that true, lasting innovation will be driven by bottoms-up early stage innovation responding to top-down industry pain points, and that to innovate we must have distribution through the incumbent plumbing of the healthcare system - and that includes care at the center. Yes, the margins are lower than pure software, but the distribution network of healthcare is very different than pure B2B. We're super interested right now in: ✅ Applications of AI to in infrastructure and operations of health care systems, provider networks, health plans to reduce manual work and enable everyone to operate at their best and highest use ✅ Applications of AI to clinical decision support and ultimately care delivery ✅ Solutions that address population health and help with access to care in both rural and urban settings (both from a care & cost perpspective), cardiometabolic health, women's health (still wildly uninvested opportunities to serve half the population), eldercare ✅ Insurtech, fintech and the payments layer of healthcare We would love to connect with more co-investors at all stages (pre-seed, seed, later stage) who are actively investing in digital health and specifically at tech-enabled care solutions to drive the next generation of healthcare innovation. Please DM us or tag a firm/investor here!
