Los Angeles Residents to Gain Faster Access to New Affordable Housing through Health Net’s $10 Million Investment in “Guarantee Fund”

Partnership with LA4LA will accelerate construction of affordable and mixed-use housing across LA County

SACRAMENTO, Calif., April 22, 2026 — Health Net, one of California’s most experienced Medi-Cal managed care health plans and a Centene Corporation (NYSE: CNC) company, announced a $10 million investment in LA4LA’s “Guarantee Fund,” which will support the expedited construction of affordable and mixed-income housing across Los Angeles County.

The “Guarantee Fund” offers subsidies to help housing developers secure financing quickly for affordable rental projects, reducing start-up times and making new housing available faster for communities in need.

“Safe, stable housing is one of the most powerful prescriptions for better health — we’ve seen it change lives,” said Dorothy Seleski, Medi-Cal President at Health Net. “This investment won’t just finance projects — it will unlock homes, restore hope and give thousands of Angelenos healthier tomorrows. That means a sense of stability — stronger connections to care, fewer trips to the emergency room and a little more breathing room each day for people to work, learn and heal.”

In Los Angeles County, there are:

Health Net’s investment is designed to help address these gaps by supporting housing developments that include a mix of low-income, voucher-supported, and middle-income units, with up to 30% reserved for voucher holders.

“This investment will help continue the progress we’ve made accelerating the production of affordable housing and decreasing homelessness across Los Angeles,” said Mayor Karen Bass. “I want to thank the LA4LA and Health Net teams for their continued partnership and for supporting innovative solutions to bridge gaps and build more affordable, stable housing citywide.”

When lenders are confident that subsidy payments like Section 8 or VASH vouchers will be made reliably, they can provide larger loans and finance more projects. LA4LA helps lenders provide larger loans and move more housing projects forward, particularly in neighborhoods near jobs, parks and schools and where residents will also have access to community resources. This closes financing gaps that can stall approved developments and encourages broader participation from property owners.

“We’re grateful to Health Net for their commitment to innovative housing solutions,” said Sarah Dusseault, Lead Strategist for LA4LA. “Their investment in the Guarantee Tool will transform how projects approach financing and increase the viability of affordable housing. As developments are completed and no longer require guarantees, Health Net’s capital can be redeployed — creating a sustainable cycle that supports additional projects over time.”

Health Net’s investment can be deployed across multiple sites countywide and, when combined with public subsidies and private lending, helps unlock significantly more housing development in the region.

This investment builds on Health Net’s broader commitment to addressing housing and homelessness across California. Since 2020, Health Net has dedicated a total of $93 million in investments related to housing and supportive services for unhoused individuals.

Courier Health Raises $50 Million Series B to Revolutionize the Biopharma Patient Experience

NEW YORK, April 22, 2026Courier Health, the leading technology company for managing patient experiences, today announced it has raised a $50 million Series B funding round led by Oak HC/FT, with participation from existing investors including Norwest and Work-Bench. This latest investment will fuel continued product innovation and solidify Courier Health’s position as the leading solution to orchestrate and personalize patient journeys across the life sciences industry.

Despite immense clinical innovation across life sciences, efforts to engage and support prescribed patients still fall short due to siloed data, disparate systems, and poor coordination. According to the 2026 State of Patient-Centricity report, nearly 60 percent of biopharma companies consider their data fragmented or inactionable, and less than 10 percent have sufficient data maturity to leverage AI in a meaningful way. Courier Health solves these pain points by connecting data and systems related to the patient experience, applying intelligence to surface insights and proactively identify at-risk patients, and orchestrating seamless experiences across the patient journey.

“Our vision is to re-write the patient experience in healthcare, starting with simplifying and coordinating complex patient journeys for those who depend on innovative medicines,” said Danny Sigurdson, Founder and CEO of Courier Health. “Our partnership with Oak HC/FT provides the strategic support and capital to accelerate our mission, scale our platform and agentic AI capabilities, and continue investing in our world-class team to ensure our customers are successful. When our customers are successful, patients achieve better health outcomes, and that is our north star.”

Courier Health’s system includes deep data integrations, intelligent workflows driven by context-rich AI, intuitive user interfaces designed specifically for market access and patient services teams, and AI agents that can execute key tasks for reliable automation and scale. Courier Health manages the end-to-end patient journey from education to patient enrollment, benefits and prior authorization, through therapy initiation and adherence. This equips biopharma teams with the visibility, control, and intelligence they need to ensure high-quality interactions with providers, pharmacies, and, most importantly, patients and their families.

“Healthcare, especially life sciences, has long lacked a dedicated, purpose-built platform to manage patients,” said Billy Deitch, Partner, Oak HC/FT. “True patient-centricity is often promised but rarely delivered, and Courier Health changes that narrative. They provide essential infrastructure and an incredibly thoughtful AI strategy that biopharma is excited to adopt at a rapid pace. Oak is proud to partner with Danny and his team as they redefine the standard for the patient experience.”

In 2025, Courier Health increased the number of customers and therapies supported on its platform by over 400% and more than doubled its headcount to meet market demand. The funding will accelerate investment in its team and product to bring its innovative technology to more customers.

About Courier Health

Courier Health is a New York City-based technology company on a mission to improve the patient experience for hundreds of millions of people living with a chronic condition or rare disease. The company develops and delivers the fastest-growing patient experience solution for the life sciences industry.

Schematic Raises $6.5M, Launches Stripe App to Solve Entitlements as a First-Class Primitive

Runtime monetization platform brings total funding to over $12M as AI-driven pricing breaks legacy billing architectures

BOULDER, Colo., April 22, 2026 — Schematic, the runtime monetization platform for SaaS and AI companies, today announced $6.5M in new funding, bringing total funding to over $12M. The company will launch its Stripe App on stage at Stripe Sessions next week.

The round was backed by S3 Ventures, MHS Capital, Active Capital, NextView Ventures, and Ritual Capital, with angel participation from the founders of LaunchDarkly, CrowdStrike, and Salesloft.

Schematic sits between a company’s application and its billing system, decoupling pricing and packaging logic from code and enforcing entitlements in product at runtime. Engineering instruments one entitlement check per feature. The plans, limits, and exceptions live in Schematic, controlled by product and commercial teams and synced automatically to Stripe for billing.

“Software used to be deterministic. AI changed that. Value and cost now accrue at runtime, non-deterministically,” said Fynn Glover, co-founder and CEO of Schematic. “Pricing has to be enforced at runtime too. A shadow enforcement system catching webhooks from a billing provider can’t keep up.”

For most of the last decade, B2B software pricing was seat-based and static. The shift to usage-based, hybrid, and AI-driven models has made that architecture untenable. Billing platforms generate invoices and manage subscriptions, but they do not enforce limits and access inside the product. That enforcement is left to engineering teams who build it in-house, often hard-coded, and then maintain it permanently.

“Entitlements is one of the hardest problems in Billing,” said Wisam Hirzalla, a senior product leader at Stripe Billing, welcoming Schematic as an official Stripe App.

Customer Traction

Schematic’s customer base includes Plotly, Automox, Florence, Blackcloak, Sema4.ai, Uniqode, OneCrew, Zep, and Pagos, with zero churn over the past year.

Plotly implemented Schematic in three weeks and launched two new AI products with credit-based pricing in half the time originally budgeted. Five thousand users signed up on the new AI plan.

“Without Schematic, feature entitlements, limits, and access logic is just technical debt waiting to happen,” said Ben Postlethwaite, VP of Engineering at Plotly. “Maintaining this infra in-house slows down product and sales.”

The new funding supports three priorities: deepening the Stripe partnership, building out the monetization control plane for go-to-market teams, and expanding developer tooling and SDKs.

About Schematic

Schematic was founded in 2023 by Fynn Glover, Gio Hobbins, and Ben Papillon. The company builds runtime monetization infrastructure for SaaS and AI companies, decoupling entitlements and pricing enforcement from application code. Schematic is built natively on Stripe Billing and is headquartered in Boulder, Colorado. For more information, visit schematichq.com.

Amperos Health Secures $16M Investment as it Launches Industry’s First AI-Native Denial Management and Revenue Recovery Platform

Helping providers resolve denials five times faster and cut denial rates by 70%

NEW YORK, April 22, 2026 — Amperos Health, the first insurance revenue recovery partner capable of working denials end-to-end entirely with AI, announced today that it has closed a $16 million Series A funding round, led by Bessemer Venture Partners, with participation from Uncork Capital and Neo.

The raise comes as Amperos launches the industry’s first AI-native denial management and revenue recovery solution for healthcare providers. Amperos’ agentic capabilities provide end-to-end denial and collection automation, while a team of subject matter experts provides judgment and expertise for complex and difficult-to-recover claims. Amperos then delivers detailed insights into how providers can optimize their billing and collections processes to prevent future denials. To date, Amperos has served over 3,000 clinical locations across all 50 states, driving nearly $700 million of revenue recovered per year across over 500,000 claims. 

“Complexity in healthcare revenue cycle management (RCM) should not be the norm, and that’s why our mission at Amperos is to streamline the denial and collections process so providers can focus on what matters most – operating their practices and serving their patients,” said Michal Miernowski, CEO and Co-Founder of Amperos Health. “I’m thrilled to announce our most recent funding round, which will be critical as Amperos accelerates its growth to serve more providers, expands its analytics capabilities and launches new agentic capabilities in other RCM workflows.”

Denials are rising in healthcare today, with 12% of claims denied in 2024, representing a $262 billion loss in revenue to providers. Providers then spend more than $26 billion annually in recovering these denied claims, of which 70% end up getting paid. And yet, 63% of RCM teams are understaffed, while healthcare administration teams face a 32% annual turnover rate.

These statistics exemplify why Amperos has built a new product that can fill gaps in the RCM workforce while recovering more value in denied revenue. The product manages the full denial management process, from following up through insurance portals and calls, to submitting corrected claims, medical records, and appeals.

“Denials are one of healthcare’s fastest-growing pain points: a growing portion of claims denied, hundreds of billions in lost revenue, and RCM teams that are chronically understaffed. It’s a broken process ripe for AI transformation,” said Sofia Guerra, Partner at Bessemer Venture Partners. “What sets Amperos apart is that they’re the first truly agentic AI platform we’ve seen to automate this workflow end-to-end, from portal follow-ups and calls to corrected claims and appeals, with no handoffs and no gaps. We’re excited to see Amperos continue to grow its impact for customers. The results speak for themselves: 22% more recovered per claim at up to 50% lower cost, creating real financial relief for providers who are already operating on razor-thin margins.”

While other solutions on the market typically automate only part of the denial management process – like calling, writing appeal letters, or navigating payer portals – Amperos is the first and only product in the market to automate end-to-end workflows for denial teams. Amperos uses state-of-the-art LLMs across voice, computer use, and more to complete entire collections workflows and maximize reimbursement at the lowest cost to collect.

“Our partnership with Amperos has helped ease the workload that comes with recovering unpaid claims and insurance collections tremendously,” said Valerie DeCaro, Vice President of Revenue Cycle Management at DOCS Dermatology. “By helping my team work through time-consuming tasks faster and focus on more complex needs, we’ve been able to recover 24% more claims without increasing headcount. DOCS Dermatology is a provider-first organization, and Amperos Health ensures that our providers are properly compensated for the care they give.”

Amperos Health continues to serve as a partner to providers, building upon the company’s $4.2 million seed funding announcement in June 2025. By empowering teams to challenge the notion that healthcare RCM is inherently complex, Amperos is leading a new standard in healthcare where providers can navigate RCM with ease.

About Amperos Health:
Amperos Health is healthcare’s first AI-native denial management and revenue recovery solution designed specifically for healthcare providers to combat denials and streamline claims collections for revenue cycle management (RCM) teams. Fully HIPAA-compliant and equipped with bank-level security, Amperos empowers teams to resolve more denials, recover more revenue, and significantly improve RCM team productivity and recovery rates.

Mosaic Raises $18M Series A To Build AI-Driven Operating System For Deal Makers

Mosaic is building the operating system for the world’s most sophisticated investors and their advisors by automating the deal modeling analyses historically built and maintained manually in Excel. Mosaic combines deterministic, rules-based calculations with AI-driven ingestion and agentic workflows to help deal teams move faster, reduce spreadsheet errors, and focus on applying investment judgment rather than performing mechanical tasks.

Today, Mosaic is used by leading private market institutions including Warburg Pincus, Bridgepoint, CVC, New Mountain, and Evercore. Customers report up to 20x faster completion of core deal analyses such as LBOs and DCFs while completely eliminating spreadsheet “mis-link” errors through Mosaic’s rules-based modeling engine.

In 2025, Mosaic was selected by five of the top ten global private equity firms as their AI-driven deal modeling platform of choice, and by two of the world’s most prolific investment banks to reimagine how they model and analyze transactions for clients.

“Before Mosaic, thousands of investors (myself included) spent hundreds of hours iterating on generic spreadsheet templates to rebuild and refine the same calculation scaffolding for each new investment opportunity,” said Ian Gutwinski, Founder & CEO of Mosaic. “Yet all those hours do nothing to improve investment outcomes. We built Mosaic so investors and bankers can spend less time linking and more time thinking. Our platform gives users the speed of automation and the reliability of deterministic calculations, so they can trust the analysis every time.”

Unlike Excel copilots and other probabilistic approaches, Mosaic’s modeling engine is designed to produce replicable, audit-ready outputs that teams can standardize across workflows, creating a foundation for institutional memory and better decision-making over time. As all models are created and stored in a centralized, standardized database siloed to each client, firms can increasingly analyze underwriting patterns across their proprietary deal data and benchmark assumptions against actual outcomes.

Mosaic Autopilot: Agentic Modeling From a Single Email

Mosaic’s flagship agentic AI feature, Mosaic Autopilot, enables users to kick off model creation via an emailed prompt to Mosaic’s agent, “Mo,” who ingests supporting documents (including CIMs), applies firm-specific defaults, and generates an “MD-ready” model in an email reply within 5 minutes.

“When I worked in Investment Banking and Private Equity, I was always shocked at how much time some of the most expensive talent in the world spent trying to fix broken models with sheer brute force”  said Ryan Shannon, Partner at Radical Ventures, who himself used to spend hundreds of hours updating deal models as an Associate at Private Equity giant TPG. “With Mosaic, that same expensive talent can instead spend their time thinking about the crucial decisions that separate good investments from great ones.”

Use of Funds

Mosaic will expand its New York-based team across:

  • Engineering & product, to expand workflow coverage and scale enterprise deployments
  • Customer enablement, to support training and adoption across enterprise clients
  • Go-to-market, to expand Mosaic’s presence across private equity, private credit, and investment banking firms

Mosaic currently has 16 employees and expects to grow to 40+ by the end of 2026.

Board Updates

As part of the Series A, Ryan Shannon, Partner at Radical Ventures, and Troy Pospisil, Founder & CEO of legal tech leader Ontra.ai (and Mosaic’s first investor), will join Mosaic’s Board of Directors. John Megrue, Vice Chairman of Radical Ventures and former CEO of Apax, will serve as a strategic advisor to Mosaic’s CEO.

“There’s a ton of noise in the financial services world right now when it comes to AI tools. Unfortunately, the vast majority of these offerings overpromise and underdeliver, and are not delivering real value to firms,” said John Megrue. “Mosaic is a rare exception of a team that deeply understands what the top investment banks, private equity funds, and private credit funds need, and is one of the few products actually delivering value today.”

“I’m excited to be joining Mosaic’s Board after backing the company early as a personal investor,” said Troy Pospisil. “Mosaic is tackling a complex problem for a market I care deeply about, and I believe Ian and the world-class team he’s assembled around him possess the unique mix of industry experience, technical depth, and relentlessness to actually change embedded behavior that hasn’t evolved in 50 years. Amidst an AI hype cycle, Mosaic is sticking to the first principles of entrepreneurship that I admire: being customer-obsessed and using every available technology and resource – whether AI, workflow, or world-class support – to deliver outcomes that its customers truly value.”

Realm Raises $4.5M to Bring the ‘Cursor Moment’ to Enterprise Sales

HELSINKI, April 22, 2026 — Realm has raised a $4.5 million Seed round to speed up enterprise sales cycles. Its platform gives AI the structured context needed to automate deal-defining materials like RFP responses. The round was led by Frontline Ventures, with participation from HubSpot Ventures, Slack Co-founder Cal Henderson and Deel Co-founder Alex Bouaziz.

Realm CEO Mikko Mäntylä believes revenue work is next to undergo the agentic revolution that has already transformed software development.

“Tools like Cursor and Claude Code have fundamentally changed programming. Developers now manage fleets of agents, often running five to ten simultaneous tasks in different terminal windows,” Mäntylä says. “The best revenue teams are starting to replicate this approach, offloading RFP responses, security questionnaires, and other customer-facing materials to AI.”

However, the shift is still held back by a fundamental constraint. Unlike in software development, where the codebase provides structured context for AI, revenue teams work with fragmented systems and unstructured data. Critical information, such as why a deal was won, has to be pieced together from subtle, scattered signals.

Realm solves this by turning raw information into a structured representation of a company’s market, products, pipeline, and strategies. This purpose-built context graph mirrors how human sellers are onboarded and gives agents the foundation they need to contribute effectively.

“Our customers use Realm to draft their most important deliverables, from multi-million dollar bids to business cases that will make or break months of work,” Mäntylä says. “Typically, 70-80% of Realm’s work is approved as-is. Any edits feedback into Realm’s context, creating a compounding record that everyone in the organisation benefits from.”

That institutional memory extends beyond Realm’s own application. The platform integrates with Slack, CRMs, and AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT, allowing teams to leverage Realm’s context and agents wherever they already work.

“The GTM stack has been built to record and report on what has already happened,” says George Radford from Frontline Ventures. “The emerging paradigm is tools that actually do the work, and Realm is building at the forefront of this shift. The team’s exceptional execution velocity and the rate at which customers are expanding usage convinced us Realm is the right team to back.”

The company will use the fresh funding to triple its team by the end of the year and accelerate its entry into the US.

About Realm

Realm builds a structured understanding of a company’s go-to-market and turns it into execution. As a result, work like RFPs, security reviews, and deal coordination happens in the background, not at the expense of time with buyers. Founded in 2023 by former Slush leaders Mikko Mäntylä and Miika Huttunen alongside Johan Jern, Realm is headquartered in Helsinki, Finland. Realm’s customers include Visma, Aiven, and Hostaway.

About Frontline Ventures

Frontline Ventures backs the most ambitious tech companies across the US and Europe, and positions them to win the transatlantic market. Frontline Seed backs European Seed startups when early US traction is critical to hyperscale. Frontline Growth backs US scaleups at Series B-D when European revenues are essential to IPO-readiness. Frontline Ventures’ portfolio includes companies like Navan, Lattice, and Vanta. Learn more: https://frontline.vc/
