Photon

☃️ For Days 8 and 9 of #Photonmas, we shout out the 8 new members who joined Photon in 2024, the same year we secured $9 million to invest in our team and growth. Sophie joined to lead and supercharge our operations. Scott joined as our first sales hire, bringing us from founder-led to founder-managed sales. Shannon joined to support customer experiences and operations. Jason, Rita, Bill, and Nick joined our rockstar engineering team. And Melinda joined as our first marketing hire (she writes these posts). At our holiday party last night, we celebrated a challenging yet successful year, grateful to play the long-term game with long-term people. 🫶 And, a few months after our fundraise, we continue to expand our team with this core value in mind. (If you're interested, find our open roles in the comments below. 😊 ) #StartupTeams #HealthTech

We built Photon because we need it too. As patients, we know the pain of a bad pharmacy experience. ❤️🩹 Making multiple calls to your doctor's office or pharmacy, waiting for 30 minutes on hold, traveling far and wide to different pharmacies, pacing near the pharmacy counter, sometimes walking away empty-handed, all while trying to squash your anxiety of not knowing the status of medications–or possibly having to go without them. 😣 In our latest blog post, we share how our teammates Diya and Alexis navigated pharmacy issues--and how we built Photon to make patient experiences much better than what they had to go through. 💪 🔗 Read about it in the comments below! #PatientExperience #Pharmacy #HealthcareInnovation #DigitalHealth

☃️ On the 4th day of #Photonmas, we reminisce on bringing some fanfare to all 4 days of #HLTH2024 in Las Vegas. 🎊 We threw the best happy hour party (we think), connected with old friends and new, and pulled together the most talked-about booth of #HLTH. 🍿 (You can find out why we built a Blockbuster booth in the comments below.) Massive shout-out to our team, who spent countless hours prepping and sharing what we’re all about every day at HLTH from 8am 'til late. 🙌 Otto, Diya, Scott, Sophie, Jomi, Stu Let's run it back next year!

☃️ On the 3rd day of #Photonmas, we appreciate the 3 of every 10 patient texts we get that say “thank you.” Helping patients feel taken care of in their prescription experiences motivates us every day, and we can’t wait to enable that experience for millions of people to come. (Because yes–we *do* want to be who your patients turn to when they’ve run into issues getting their meds ASAP and need help. ☺️) #PatientExperience #Pharmacy #DigitalHealth

☃️ On the 2nd day of #Photonmas, we look back at 2 memorable team on-sites in New York City! As our team grew quickly in 2024, we appreciated this time to bond, jam on ideas, and... ⛵️ Host a sunset cruise for 10+ customers 🧑💻 Run 2 team hackathons (with 1 on #AI of course) 🏀 See the Nets play in a packed stadium 📸 Do a photo walk around Williamsburg 🍹 Understand each other better over delicious food 'n drink We can’t wait to reconvene at our next *off-site* in the new year. 🎷 #BrooklynStartups #StartupTeams #Photon

☃️ On the 1st day of #Photonmas, we celebrate having reached 🌟 1 million 🌟 prescriptions routed. We like to see it as 1 million opportunities for Photon to help patients fulfill their medications with greater ease and transparency (or perhaps: 1 million headaches saved 😄). Stay tuned as we count the days of #Photonmas and celebrate an eventful year. #DigitalHealth #HealthcareStartup #PharmacyInnovation #PatientExperience

💫 Introducing... Photon Wrapped: a few 2024 insights, #SpotifyWrapped style. Before next year's #PhotonWrapped, you'll see us expand our impact by tenfold--if not more--and we hope you join us for the ride. 🏄

Texts like this one remind us at Photon: this is why we do what we do. With Photon, this parent: ✅ Easily transferred the Rx to a new pharmacy ✅ Got a text that meds were ready for pick-up  ✅ Reached the pharmacy right before it closed, ~30 min after our text 💚 Took care of their kid's pain ASAP 30% of patient texts we receive say “thank you,” and throughout this Thanksgiving weekend, we couldn’t help but to feel just as grateful that we get to serve folks in this way every day. 😌 #Pharmacy #PatientsFirst #Pediatrics #MedicationAccess #Gratitude #Healthcare #HealthTech
