A cancer test that runs inside a cup. Taken at home, with results sent to your doctor in 30 minutes. Built in a San Francisco lab by a team that started in a shipping container.

What it actually takes to build it:

“If we spend ten, 20, 30, 40 years working on this, that’s okay. The outcome will be worth it.”

Cleancard (YC S23) combines synthetic biology and artificial intelligence to make at-home cancer screens that are as easy to use as a pregnancy test.
