Can AI Fix Housing and Healthcare Affordability?

Erik Torenberg, Alex Immerman, Minna Song, Tony Stoyanov

The firm has invested in Elyse AI, a 2017-founded startup led by Minna and Tony, to deploy autonomous building technology across the housing and healthcare sectors. This solution addresses a 5-million-unit US housing deficit and soaring administrative costs by doubling employee productivity, reducing lease cycles to under two weeks, and expanding into medical intake and patient engagement. By targeting a future where these two sectors consume only 20% of household income, the initiative aims to replace manual inefficiencies with AI-driven operations that unlock latent supply and lower long-term living expenses.
