Draft Message

Hi Erik,

I'm Thomas, co-founder of DaisyAI. We're building AI for healthcare utilization review.

Your experience at Hellman & Friedman and Stanford GSB is impressive. I'm curious how healthcare PE thinks about AI-enabled services companies. What metrics matter? How do you evaluate defensibility?

Would love to get your perspective if you have time.

Notes

• Senior PE advisor = strategic M&A perspective
• Stanford GSB lecturer suggests openness to mentoring
