About
Certainly Health is a San Francisco-based healthcare price transparency marketplace — backed by Y Combinator (S23) with $2.3 million in seed funding in December 2023 from Pacific 8 Ventures, Y Combinator, institutional investors, and angels — providing patients with a doctor booking platform that shows upfront out-of-pocket costs using machine learning to predict and guarantee healthcare spending before appointments, addressing the surprise medical bill crisis where 57% of Americans have received unexpected bills and 38% delay care due to cost uncertainty. Founded in 2023 by Daryl Sew and Kevin Chiu (Stanford graduate, former Uber engineer, and Uber Health founding member who grew that program to $100 million in 2 years), Certainly Health enables patients with insurance to book doctors while seeing the actual cost they will owe — not the sticker price.

About
Alphabet Inc. is a Mountain View, California-based technology conglomerate — publicly traded on the NASDAQ (NASDAQ: GOOGL, GOOG) as an S&P 500 Information Technology component — operating as the holding company for Google (Search, YouTube, Google Ads, Gmail, Google Cloud, Android, Chrome, Maps, Play Store, Workspace), and Other Bets (Waymo autonomous vehicles, DeepMind AI research, Verily life sciences, Wing drone delivery, Google Fiber) through approximately 183,000 full-time employees. In fiscal year 2024, Alphabet reported revenues of $350 billion (+15% year-over-year), with Google Services (Search, YouTube, Google Play, subscriptions) generating $307 billion, Google Cloud generating $43.2 billion (+30%), and Other Bets $2.0 billion, while generating $100 billion in net income — reflecting Alphabet's position as one of the highest-profit companies in history, funded by Google Search's advertising monopoly (processing 8.5+ billion searches daily, commanding 90%+ global search market share). CEO Sundar Pichai has prioritized Alphabet's AI-first transformation: the 2024 launch of Gemini Ultra 1.0, Gemini 1.5 Pro (1 million token context window — largest at launch), and Gemini 2.0 Flash positioned Google as a competitive AI frontier model lab alongside OpenAI, following the ChatGPT disruption that temporarily threatened Google's search advertising dominance in 2023. Google Cloud's Vertex AI platform (enterprise AI model deployment with Gemini, Llama, and third-party models) and Google Distributed Cloud (air-gapped government cloud) compete directly with Microsoft Azure AI and AWS SageMaker for enterprise AI workload contracts. Waymo's commercial robotaxi operations in San Francisco, Phoenix, and Los Angeles (Waymo One — fully driverless rides, generating revenue and operational data) represent Alphabet's highest-upside long-duration investment.
