When you’re building an AI-native company, compute isn’t just infrastructure, it’s fuel. And like fuel, it’s expensive, essential, and often determines how fast you can go.

That’s why I’m excited to share that we’ve been awarded $350,000 USD in Google Cloud credits through their startup program. This kind of non-dilutive support doesn’t just help us scale faster, it sends a signal: that some of the world’s most trusted platforms in AI infrastructure believe in what we’re building.

This moment brings back a familiar sense of momentum. In 2018 my startup doc.ai was selected to join the NVIDIA Inception program when there were just 2,800 startups in the ecosystem. Today, there are more than 8,000. That early validation, from a company at the heart of AI’s compute revolution, meant a great deal to us. It was a sign that we were building something meaningful. And now, receiving this free and non dilutive amount of compute feels like a continuation of that journey, another milestone, another moment of alignment with the future of AI.

With my team we're building an Agentic AI platform to help solve the trillion dollar bottleneck in healthcare operations. To do this well, we need to run both large and small -scale models in real-world conditions, fine-tune intelligence across fragmented workflows, and build systems that get smarter as they operate. That requires experimentation, scale and serious compute.

These credits give us the freedom to move faster, train smarter, and deliver real-time value to our customers, without slowing down to solve infrastructure challenges first.

But the bigger story is about trust. Programs like this are selective. They’re not just handing out access, they’re placing bets. On teams. On vision. On execution.

And for investors and customers alike, it’s a powerful signal that we’re building something that matters, on foundations designed to scale.

To our customers, this means more resilient, reliable performance from day one.

To our investors, it’s technical validation and non-dilutive runway. Special thanks to Claritas Capitaland Graph Ventures.

To our team, it's fuel. And we're just getting started.
