Explorys’ technology is based on a system called MyResearch that Jain piloted at the Cleveland Clinic, which is an equity investor in the company.

The company recently added three Northeast Ohio hospital systems to its emerging member network — MetroHealth System and University Hospitals in Cleveland, and Summa Health System in Akron. Cleveland Clinic was its inaugural member.

Explorys has curated more than one billion clinical records from participating healthcare providers in a privacy-protected and HIPAA-compliant platform for high-speed search and analytics.
