What they shipped
- From its YC profile: Denta is dental insurance. As a full stack carrier, Denta makes insurance 30% cheaper by selling plans directly to employers and processing claims instantly with AI. I grew up in the back office of my dad’s dental practices, spent my high school years answering patient calls, and built software for over 300 dentists during college. I'm now solving the industry's biggest problem: insurance. Everyone knows how bad health insurance is, dental insurance is worse. In the US, dental insurers collect $100B per year. (source)
- Its own site describes it as: "Denta, Inc. administers self-funded dental benefit plans for US employers. Set up a plan for your team in minutes, with claims paid in seconds." (source)
Who is behind it
- Jack Beecher, Founder/CEO: Dartmouth dropout, studied CS & Math. Dentistry is my life's work so I'm solving its biggest problem: Insurance. (source)
