With over 10,000 known rare diseases, a staggering 95% lack FDA-approved therapies. This results in patients and caregivers contending not only with limited treatment options but also grappling with the daily stress of navigating complex healthcare systems and making critical decisions for their well-being.

Through Citizen’s direct relationships with patients, they gather their lifetime health records and entire medical histories, which allows them to craft detailed and personalized patient and disease profiles seamlessly integrated into the Citizen platform. Their patient and disease profiles are easily accessible and shareable, helping doctors, patients, and caregivers make informed and timely treatment decisions and providing researchers with the richest real-world information to develop novel therapies.

Healthcare continues its journey towards truly personalized medicine. If you truly believe in precision medicine, everything is a rare disease. These patients and families are leading a transformation that will define how all patients should be treated in the future: precise therapies and information for the right patient at the right time no matter where they are in their journey.

Over 400 million people worldwide are impacted by a rare disease, yet fewer than 5% of the 10,600+ diseases have therapies. Patients and caregivers often know more about the disease than those providing care, and their journey is constantly documented through mountains of data generated through their care. We have built the first truly patient-focused platform that connects patients with information and resources to support their care and, through the power of their collective patient journeys, brings life-changing therapies to patients faster. We see a future where every patient, regardless of their condition’s stage or nature, has immediate access to exceptional guidance and personalized options available at that precise time. Transformation Capital has been an incredible partner that thinks long-term and truly partners with us as an extension of our team. I have rarely seen an investment partner understand the businesses they support so deeply. It enables them to use their vast network and years of experience as investors and operators to open the right door for us at the right time while staying focused on what matters most for the business.Farid Vij, Co-Founder & CEO
