Founder Austin Walker on Building the AI Layer for Chronic Illness

Austin Walker sold his last company in 2020, then got COVID and never recovered. He spent 9 months bedridden, saw 20+ doctors who all dismissed it as stress. He eventually got better by joining online patient communities, collecting what was working from other people, and running self-experiments on himself.That experience turned him into a patient trying to solve this for complex chronic illness, and he's been working on turning what he learned into a product:  Atlas. In this episode he shares his story of getting sick, learning our heal care system isn't designed for complex patients, finding his path back to being largely better agian, and now being back to work as a founder creating Atlas.   Website:  https://theatlasnetwork.ai/ Link to signup: https://chat.theatlasnetwork.ai/Link to the Atlas Discord: https://discord.gg/YR8MKs3py If you liked this episode, we hope you will click subscribe so that you don't miss an episode.
