H1 raises $40M led by CVS Health Ventures
H1, a nine-year-old healthcare data platform, raised $40 million in a round led by CVS Health Ventures. CEO and co-founder Ariel Katz said H1 — which licenses detailed physician data to pharma companies, hospital systems and insurers — turned cash-flow and EBITDA profitable last year and is forecasting over 40% growth this year. Katz argued that being a data-first provider makes H1 less vulnerable to AI replacement and could make it a supplier to model makers. H1 was last valued at $750 million after a $100 million round in November 2021 led by Altimeter Capital, and the company has grown through acquisitions of smaller competitors and complementary businesses.
FirstClub Doubles Valuation to $255M After $55M Series B
FirstClub, a Bengaluru-based quick-commerce grocery startup founded in 2024, raised $55 million in a Series B co-led by Peak XV Partners and Sofina, valuing the company at $255 million. Existing backers Accel, RTP Global and Paramark Ventures participated, bringing FirstClub’s total funding to $86 million. The startup operates a curated grocery platform (~4,000 SKUs), conducts quality checks and lab-tests on certain staples, and has crossed 1 million orders and 170,000 households since launch. FirstClub reports annualized gross market value of about $50 million, average order frequency of over four per month, average order value ~₹1,200 (~$13), and about 220 direct employees. The company plans geographic expansion beyond Bengaluru (21 stores) and deeper presence in Hyderabad (3 locations), and to broaden product categories.
Angle Health raises $600M at $2.7B valuation
Health insurance startup Angle Health announced a $200 million Series C round and a $400 million tender offer, giving the company a $2.7 billion valuation. The round was led by Vitruvian Partners with participation from Town Hall Ventures, Blumberg Capital, Portage Ventures, PruVen Capital, and Y Combinator. The tender offer permits employees to cash out shares, and the transaction is expected to close later this month. Angle Health, a Winter 2020 Y Combinator alum, helps small businesses manage level-funded health plans, offering a middle ground between fully insured and self-funded options. The company's AI-powered platform integrates with payroll and HR systems, serves over 5,000 businesses, and is reportedly profitable. This funding round is notable as it comes from a non-AI-agent startup founded in 2019.
