Hims & Hers Raises $1 Billion to Build AI-Powered Healthcare Platform

Hims & Hers just raised up to $1 billion through convertible notes to fund AI expansion and acquisitions. The telehealth company hired Mo Elshanawi as CTO from autonomous driving company Cruise. CEO Andrew Dudum says he picked someone from self-driving cars because "safety is paramount in that business" and that mindset fits healthcare.

The AI strategy focuses on:

  • End-to-end patient experience from intake to treatment
  • Personalized workout and nutrition plans alongside prescriptions
  • Custom AI servers for HIPAA compliance instead of using ChatGPT
  • Global expansion of their technology platform

Hims & Hers wants to become the "Netflix of healthcare" by aggregating demand. This forces suppliers like Novo Nordisk to work with them to reach customers. The company needs to scale fast before competitors catch up, similar to Uber's strategy in ride-sharing.

Prompt of the Week

This week we're doing things a little differently. As you probably know, Claude 4 is here. And Anthropic just released their official prompt engineering best practices for the new flagship model. Inside, they say Claude 4 needs more explicit instructions than previous versions to get "above and beyond" behavior.

Key techniques include:

  • Tell Claude what TO do instead of what NOT to do
  • Add context explaining WHY you need specific behavior
  • Use XML tags to control response format
  • Match your prompt style to desired output style

For business applications, Claude 4 excels at parallel tool execution. The guide recommends this prompt: "For maximum efficiency, whenever you need to perform multiple independent operations, invoke all relevant tools simultaneously rather than sequentially."

The models also have new "thinking capabilities" for complex multi-step reasoning. Anthropic suggests being bold: "Don't hold back. Give it your all" produces better results than basic requests.
