Certified Problem Solver

Gaia Family is a legitimate, high-growth InsurTech company that recently closed a $14M Series B (Jan 2025) and previously a $20M Series A (2022). The project solves a critical, high-cost problem (IVF access) with a predictive financing model. While the submission itself was low-quality (claiming 'everyone' as the audience and 'most people' as users), independent verification confirms significant market traction, regulatory approval, and substantial venture backing. The score reflects the high real-world utility and financial viability of the business, adjusted slightly downward for the poor quality of the submission data.

Project Details

Description
Infertility affects 1 in 5 couples and yet only a small fraction of the eligible population currently has the awareness and the means to undergo fertility treatment. Gaia’s first product is an innovative financing and insurance product to redesign access to fertility treatments, starting with IVF. \n\nWe developed a proprietary fertility predictive model using historical data but the aim is to further harness large quantities of complex data around fertility, associated treatments and outcomes. The objective is to remove all ambiguity with regards to information, predicting chances, treatment decisions and quality of care for fertility patients.
