Kavian Mojabe is the Founder and CEO of MediScan AI, the AI back office for independent medical evaluators. These are the licensed physicians whose opinions decide the outcome of workers' compensation, personal injury, and disability cases.

MediScan's best-in-class record review engine does in minutes what used to take weeks, helping physicians optimize chart reviews to help patients faster and more effectively. 

Before MediScan, Kavian was a founding engineer at two startups acquired by Amazon and Adobe. But this one is personal—his father is an independent medical evaluator in Southern California, and Kavian grew up watching the toll the busy work took on a doctor who just wanted to practice medicine. MediScan is his answer: give that time back and let people like his father stay independent.

 Victoria Thain Gioia is the Co-Founder and CEO of Perelel, the first OBGYN-founded vitamin company offering doctor-formulated, research-backed supplements designed to meet the unique needs of women at every stage of their hormonal journey.

Before founding Perelel, Victoria worked in investment banking and private equity, then moved into finance and operating roles at The Honest Company, Olive and June, and Carbon38.

In 2018, while pregnant with her second child, she learned her daughter would be born with a cleft lip—often linked to nutritional deficiencies—despite taking all of the recommended vitamins. That experience led her to partner with OBGYN Dr. Banafsheh Bayati to bring real medical rigor to prenatal nutrition.

Perelel launched in 2020 as a direct answer to the one-size-fits-all model that had dominated women's healthcare for far too long.
