Our mission is “providing public benefit through usable technology interfaces, easing access to information and services available through government agencies and for-profit and other nonprofit non-governmental organizations, with a special focus on underserved communities” to be accomplished by “designing, implementing, and facilitating the use of, and access to, technology in various aspects and potentially through the provision of various services.”
We formed out of winning a 2021 Civic Hackathon with a solution to simplify scheduling of appointments in mass vaccination drives during the supply-constrained portion of the Covid-19 vaccine rollout, so that especially the most vulnerable groups in our population wouldn't have to spend hours a day in user-unfriendly systems trying to find appointments, only to give up or be left standing in line outside for many hours on the coldest days of the year.
After that original challenge was better solved with an abundance of vaccines and the rollout of vaccines.gov, we entered a period of dormancy but reactivated in 2024 with a new project called MedHound, a Crowdsourcing Community to Diminish Drug Dialing. It's a more general solution to the problem of having to waste so much time calling around to various pharmacies for hard-to-find medications. A live demo is up at demo.medhound.org!
