# About Us

## Our Mission

Tea Leaf Health is on a mission to fill the trust gap in healthcare. Every day, we build technology to ensure equitable access to patient engagement — especially for rare disease, underrepresented, and other patient communities around whom the U.S. healthcare system was not designed. We combine the power of AI with human intelligence to make equitable access a reality.

## Why Our AI?

Based in our Data Science roots, Tea Leaf Health believes the low cost and speed of AI make it a useful tool for addressing complex problems in healthcare. But we built something special: our AI amplifies rare disease and diverse patient voices — which commercial AIs simply can’t do.

## Why "Tea Leaf" Health?

Inspired by the ancient art of tea leaf reading to reveal fortunes, our team uses AI and human intelligence to predict a patient’s healthcare fortune — and then works to improve it.
