Who We Are
Mission & Team
A small team building something we believe matters —
patient access to clinical trial discovery.
Our Mission
Tidera Health exists to help patients discover and understand clinical trial opportunities that might otherwise be invisible to them. We believe every patient deserves to know what options exist — including trials — without needing specialist connections or hours of research.
Our goal is simple: make the clinical trial discovery process less opaque, more accessible, and genuinely useful for people navigating serious health conditions.
Why We Built This
The core problem is a navigation problem. Over 400,000 clinical trials have been registered on ClinicalTrials.gov. Tens of thousands are recruiting right now. Yet most patients — even those with serious, treatment-resistant conditions — never know a relevant trial exists near them.
The existing tools are built for researchers, not patients. The official registry is accurate but difficult to navigate. The eligibility criteria read like legal documents. The distance filters are clunky. The fit scoring doesn’t exist.
We built Tidera Health to fill that gap — a patient-first interface on top of the same authoritative data, with AI to bridge the language barrier between trial documentation and plain English.
✅ Tidera IS
- An independent, educational trial-discovery platform
- A patient-first interface to ClinicalTrials.gov
- A plain-English explanation tool
- A starting point for patient–doctor conversations
- Free, private, and no account required
❌ Tidera is NOT
- A medical provider or AI doctor
- An eligibility-determination tool
- Paid per enrolled patient — our results are never for sale
- A replacement for your physician
- Affiliated with NLM, NIH, or any trial sponsor
How we stay independent — and how we keep the lights on
Tidera is not owned or funded by any pharmaceutical company. Sponsors can pay for clearly labeled placement and for de-identified, aggregate demand insights — but payment never changes which trials you see, how they're ranked, or what our AI says about them. We are never paid per enrolled patient. Your search results answer to you, not to a sponsor.
The Team
Tidera Health is built by a small team passionate about patient access and health information equity. We are independent: not owned by any pharmaceutical company, not paid per enrolled patient, not incentivized by enrollment volume. Sponsors who work with us do so on clearly disclosed, fair-market terms — and that relationship never changes what patients see in their results.
We believe the best technology in this space is transparent technology. That means explaining our ranking methodology publicly, publishing clear limitations, and never pretending AI explanations are medical determinations.
