What’s Promptly in a nutshell
We answer the question – is this patient treatment the best it could possibly be?
Promptly is building the first patient-centered global evidence network, offering real world data sharing and monetization capabilities. Together with a selected network of Partners, we generate new knowledge from harmonized datasets, augmented with the collection of longitudinal patient-reported data and patient-generated digital biomarkers within a secure and privacy-preserving environment. We deliver valuable insights to leading health systems, payers and life-science companies across multiple therapeutic areas, including cardiometabolic, oncology, and immunology. Operating in 10 countries, we promote better healthcare at lower costs for thousands of new patients every day through the use of Real World Evidence.
What’s our purpose
We exist to empower every patient and every health organization on the planet with evidence on the outcomes of care!
Why do we get up in the morning? Well, most healthcare professionals have chosen to work in healthcare driven by their desire to make a difference in patients’ lives. And so have we! We have chosen to follow this calling by addressing the biggest problem in healthcare: the lack of real-world evidence on the outcomes of care.
For us, society denying patients better care due to lack of access to data is unethical, in a world where technology improved so many aspects of our world. Making the right evidence available to healthcare organizations to help prevent one lost life, one care complication, one failed treatment is the moral obligation that big tech companies have – it’s our Hippocratic Oath.
At Promptly, everything we do is driven by our core purpose: to promote better healthcare at lower costs for patients every day, by making health outcomes available.

Our Culture & Values
Empathy
If there is 1 rule at Promptly, this is the one – before making any judgement, put yourself in the shoes of another.
Empathy is the courage to choose to actively understand what the experience of another person could have felt like, without necessarily have experienced it ourselves.
Empathy is not a one-day journey, it is a mindset that must be continuously developed – it is an everyday choice to fight for kindness and, by doing so, to help change people, organizations, and society for the better.
If you embrace this mindset, you are a true leader @ Promptly, you are a true leader in our society.
Ownership
At Promptly, we don’t foster fixed hierarchies or top-down decision making. If you want to hit the ground running in our team, do not wait for someone to “tell you what to do”.
Acting like an owner means that you should align with our core purpose and find the best way to deliver on it, every day.
Starting a new project, analyzing new data, reaching out to a new client, there is no area of the company you cannot have an impact in, because there is no such thing as “someone else’s problem”.
Responsibility
Working to improve healthcare is a great responsibility and what inspires us to not settle for less.
You have the responsibility to be a leader within our company. A leader is not a title. A leader is someone who delivers on our core purpose and inspires others to follow our cultural values. It is a “great power, and a great responsibility”.
Leadership comes with the awareness of one’s own strengths and weaknesses and the responsibility to use these to deliver on what you promised. It comes with the responsibility to understand the context, ask for help when needed (teamwork), and be accountable for the quality of what we produce (excellence).
Teamwork
Our team is our greatest asset, and we are fortunate to attract great people. We go the extra mile to find the best person for every role – making our team diverse in backgrounds, personal experiences, skills and knowledge.
If you are not contributing – or worse, actively destroying – teamwork, you are derailing us from our core purpose and ultimately hurting patient care.
Excellence
At Promptly, we’re recognized by society as thought leaders, contributing to research and evidence generation through technology and data science.
We put on ourselves a very high pressure to keep delivering on this role to our customers, patients and society.
Excelling at our work is a continuous process of improvement, it is not an end state. We're committed to continuous learning and self-development. so, if you have just finalized delivering a great work, rest, enjoy and go improve your work further.
