"Driftly uses route optimization to make home health clinicians 10-15% more productive"
Founded by Toby Hirsch & Victor Lin
Meet Toby and Victor. They are building Driftly to make home health agencies more efficient.
Driftly is Toby and Victor’s third startup together. In high school, Victor started Umpcast, a scheduling tool for little leagues that is still in use today across the Bay Area, and Toby was the first hire. Then, they built Probook, a dispatching tool for HVAC and plumbing companies, before leaving to pursue Driftly.
Toby (right) previously worked at Yale New Haven Health, where he used machine learning to analyze EEG signals for seizure detection and classification, and as a quantitative trader at Jane Street. He graduated from Penn's M&T program with degrees in computer science and statistics.
Victor (left) previously worked at Jane Street, Figma, and Bytedance. He was also involved in the Neo startup community as a Neo Scholar and working at Relay.app. He graduated from UCLA with a bachelors in computer science.
The Problem: Home health clinicians drive too much
Clinicians spend 30% of their time driving, while agencies are struggling to meet demand. 75% of referrals to home health are rejected, and with the 85+ population doubling in the next decade, this is only getting worse.
Incumbent software is not built for scheduling–instead, agencies rely on Excel and printed territory maps.
The Solution: Route optimization
Driftly makes home health clinicians 10-15% more productive by optimizing their routes to cut driving time in half.
With Driftly, schedulers can make efficient decisions for a patient’s entire plan of care in just a few clicks.
This simple change cuts clinician travel time by 30-50%, allowing agencies to see more patients and increase revenue by 10-15%.
