Solace
Patient-advocacy unicorn — connects Medicare members with 2,000+ expert health advocates covered by insurance. $1B+ valuation.
What is Solace?
Solace is a Redwood City-based digital platform that connects patients with expert healthcare advocates covered by insurance. Founded in 2022 by Jeremy Gurewitz (CEO) and Sara Sargent (CPO), the company has built a network of 2,000+ experienced advocates currently serving Medicare and Medicare Advantage members. Solace closed a $130M Series C (February 2026) led by IVP at a $1B+ valuation — following a $60M Series B (April 2025) led by Menlo Ventures with Craft Ventures, Inspired Capital, Torch Capital, and SignalFire, plus an earlier $14M Series A. The thesis: healthcare-advocacy-as-a-standard-of-care across the US — meeting patients at the point of confusion with someone whose job is to navigate the system on their behalf.
Mission & values
Make patient advocacy a standard of care in the United States — every patient deserves an expert advocate covered by insurance, especially Medicare and Medicare Advantage members.
Qualifications
Solace hires across engineering (full-stack, platform, infrastructure, ML), product, design, growth/marketing, operations, finance, and clinical operations (recruiting and onboarding the 2,000+ advocate network). The Solace Advocate Network itself is the largest hiring lane — RNs, social workers, and other healthcare professionals serving Medicare members remotely. Most corporate roles are remote within the US; advocate roles serve specific state markets where Solace is active.
