First time I am seeing this or autoresearch in general. Incredibly cool. I can think of plenty of use cases this can apply to (e.g., drug research, trading).

The last few months have witnessed significant pressures on payers. Despite a common belief, payers tend to play a critical role in managing the overall cost of the health system, often running the thinnest margin compared to most other stakeholders (e.g., Hospitals, PBMs)

As a founder, there is another angle here that is worth mentioning. Not only does AI B2B SaaS allow insourcing, it also allows there to be 10x (imaginary number) the number of companies building SaaS for the same use case. What we see in healthcare or finance for example is executive fatigue from demos, in many cases mostly vibe coded frontend UIs that entrepreneurs are using to test the market. This creates friction for businesses / SaaS companies that are unable to show how their solution is unique, well built or has a clear moat over the many others they have seen.

Thank you! Yah it really is sad, I always joke (but really half seriously) that the goal would be to make the platform unnecessary one day.

I built https://nofone.io . I ingest health insurance policies and provide insights to insurers on how to improve them and doctors to know what insurers expect to see in documentation and evidence. My hope is to improve the denial situation and standardize medical necessity criteria down the line.

Totally agree - this is what I'm saying also. Reality is hospitals still have an incentive (which we see them exercise a lot esp. in rural areas) to stay out of network where they can so that they can bill claim amounts freely.

100% this. Non participating providers a big reason patients have gotten massive bills when going to an ER or an inpatient setting, esp. in rural settings, where a non-pariticipating provider is part of your care and you end up with 5/6 digit bills for that one provider. This actually protects the patient and creates an incentive for health systems to care about it.

I realize a lot of the comments here are pessimistic, but this is a pretty obvious monetization path that they just can't not take. This is actually a huge angle IMO. ChatGPT is on a path to become a real entry point to the internet - why use Amazon or Google Search when you can embed results and checkout in the

I agree there's a real bias issue, but that is consistent through out any large company - e.g., Google, Facebook, Amazon, etc have sponsored results
