Tim Hwang has spent his career moving between politics, policy, and startups. He worked on Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign, studied public policy at Princeton, and took his first company, FiscalNote, public before he turned 30.

Nitra is an AI-native operating platform built specifically for medical practices.

The company targets the administrative layer of healthcare—the back-office work that consumes enormous time and costs inside clinics—and automates it end to end, from expense management and accounting to patient communications and claims filing. It is, in Hwang's words, designed to replace the fragmented patchwork of software that most practices currently rely on just to keep the lights on.
