Ali Sadat grew up doing homework in the dentist office where his mother worked. Now, many years later, Sadat believes his young startup can solve the back-office problems necessary to clear the path for faster insurance payouts to dentists.
Retrace Labs Inc., backed by Intel Capital and SoftBank Ventures Asia and supported by an artificial intelligence-driven technology that scours oral images and other documents, aims to turn around insurance claims reviews more quickly and efficiently. What’s more, Sadat said San Francisco-based Retrace promises to cut dentist offices’ costs for filing those claims.
