Pharos, a San Francisco, CA – based hospital quality reporting platform, closed a $5M seed funding round.
The round was led by Felicis with participation from General Catalyst, Moxxie and Y Combinator.
The company intends to use the funds to grow its engineering team, allowing customers to report to new clinical quality registries and measure a wider range of process metrics.
Founded in 2024 by a team of clinicians and AI researchers, and led by Felix Brann, CEO, and Matthew Jones, CTO, Pharos automates clinical quality reporting for hospitals, enabling submission to state and national quality registries without manual abstraction. Additionally, by enabling automatic extraction of custom process metrics, the solution helps quality teams identify the process failures that are contributing to patient harm, enabling action on issues like sepsis mortality, hospital-acquired infections, and pressure ulcers.
The team is also joined by Dr. Alex Clarke, Head of Research, an MD with a PhD in Artificial Intelligence from Imperial College London.
