Business Development Representative

TL;DR/OVERVIEW:

Alleviate is the AI platform built for clinical research sites to recruit and enroll patients faster than ever before.

Our AI agents recruit, screen, and intelligently route patients across every trial a site is running — taking enrollment conversion as high as 4x by routing disqualified patients into the next-best protocol instead of losing them.

We’re raised $4.3M, backed by Andreessen Horowitz and other investors like Jack Altman (Co-Founder of Lattice), Sajith Wickramasekara (Co-Founder of Benchling), Ali Rowghani (Former CFO & COO of Twitter), Trey Holterman (CEO & Co-Founder of Tennr) and many others who’ve built category defining healthcare & pharma tech companies.

CONTEXT:

Conducting a clinical trial is the most complex and broken — but also the most high‑stakes and capital intensive — problem of our era.

To bring a life-saving medicine from the lab bench to patients, pharma companies spend tens of billions a year on trials in which hundreds of research sites qualify & screen hundreds of thousands of patients and stay in contact with those patients over years.

This enormous, labor-intensive struggle of screening, recruitment, and retention of patients across hundreds of small research sites in every single trial is the foundational bottleneck in clinical trials.
