Accelerate the future of medicine

Forus is building an AI-powered network that connects doctors, pharmacies, payers, and biopharma to bring new science to patients.

0Open roles

We use AI to get people life-changing medicine. Forus abstracts the complexity of insurance, affordability, and supply chain — free for doctors and patients. The network this creates helps biopharma companies develop and launch new drugs faster.

Why you should join us

Forus is a generational opportunity to rethink how new medicines reach society. We have exceptional product-market fit, with rapid organic adoption. Our business gets stronger — not commoditized — as AI improves, and the network effects compound: every new connection makes the platform more valuable and durable.

If we succeed, science will be the only limit to medicine.

Scientific progress in medicine is accelerating, but getting breakthroughs to patients remains slow and unreliable. Bringing a new drug to market takes 10 to 15 years and costs $2.6 billion on average. Even after FDA approval, too many eligible patients never receive treatment – caught in a system that wasn't built for the complexity of modern medicine. Most promising drugs never make it to market, and those that do reach only a fraction of the patients who could benefit.

Forus is embedded into physician workflows, automating all steps between a clinical decision and a patient starting treatment — insurance authorization, financial assistance, and fulfillment routing — across every drug, payer, and pharmacy in the country, free for doctors and patients. Because we play an unprecedented role in moving prescriptions through the system, we provide life sciences companies unmatched insight into how medicines perform — enabling them to design better research, launch new drugs more effectively, and invest in harder-to-treat conditions.

Our number one priority is scaling to market demand. We are looking for individuals who are high horsepower, high throughput, and hyper resourceful to help us unlock capacity and drive growth. We move fast and need to move faster.

Hear from the team

"I'm building the product and infrastructure that is driving our shift to an agent-first operation. A system that can handle the challenges of new specialties, new health systems and millions of patients."

DJ

Engineer, ex-Stripe

"I work across engineering, clinical intelligence, and provider experience to drive the product decisions and automations that make prior authorization submissions faster and more accurate — all to get patients medication sooner."

Judy

Strategy & Ops, ex-Bain & Company

“I work directly with our life science partners to turn new product ideas into reality — scoping provider experiences and custom apps, then shipping them with our engineering and design teams."

Ethan

Engineer, ex-Palantir

"My work sits at the intersection of research and product, constantly experimenting and running evals to ship models that are state-of-the-art and reliable when a patient's medication is on the line."

Isabel

ML Research, ex-Microsoft Research

“Navigating insurance authorizations involves a web of complexity. From clinical reasoning to evals, I develop the ML research and systems that handle this challenge.”

Anirudh

ML Research, ex-Scale AI

"Everything at Forus is cross-functional. I work across product, strategy, and ops on patient access programs — the financial assistance, support, and education that helps patients afford and stay on their medication."

Richard

Strategy & Ops, ex-McKinsey

"I work across product, strategy, and operations on patient access programs - helping patients access medications, financial assistance, and support. Partnering with engineering, ops, and life science teams, I advance the roadmap and ship tooling that improves patient outcomes and provider experience."

Ishaan

Strategy & Ops, ex-DoorDash

"The data science layer tells us what's actually working: from running the experiments behind every model launch to using millions of patient outcomes to answer questions no one in healthcare has had the data to answer before."

Daria

Data Science, ex-Oscar

“Forus' RAG-based appeal generator is leading to more overturned denials. Everything I build is aimed at using AI and automation to knock down the barriers between patients and the medicine they need.”

Elliott

Applied AI, ex-Galileo AI

"As a practicing physician, I know firsthand how arbitrary denials feel when you've made the right clinical call. At Forus I translate how physicians think into the logic our AI uses, from clinical scoring to denial prediction, so more of those calls end with patients getting their medication."

Adam

Clinical Intelligence, Practicing Physician at NYU Langone

We run a high trust, high autonomy environment based on our core principles.

  • Do the math

    Be rigorous, assume nothing. Break problems down and reason from the ground up.

  • Expand the solution space

    Be resourceful and audacious. Resist false constraints and push beyond the obvious before committing.

  • Spit it out

    Speak directly, invite critique, avoid equivocation. We want right answers, not comfortable ones.

  • Raise the bar together

    Hold a high standard for execution, push each other directly, and win as a team.
