While people are dying, they’re navigating broken websites, calling disconnected numbers, and getting trapped in advertising funnels. This isn’t a technology problem — it’s a values problem.

Our Story

Why we exist

We’ve lived through the hell of trying to find treatment for someone you love. The broken systems, the false hope, the precious time lost while someone’s life hangs in the balance.

We built Rize because we believe that in someone’s darkest hour, the healthcare system should work for them, not against them. No more calling fifty facilities only to find they’re full. No more navigating marketing funnels when you need medical care.

This is personal. This is urgent. And this is exactly why we refuse to accept the status quo.

Healthcare shouldn't be a treasure hunt when someone's life is on the line.
Rize Founding Team
Our Philosophy

Our belief

Recovery should be about healing, not hunting for help. When someone is ready to take the hardest step of their life, the system should meet them with clarity, honesty, and immediate support.

Radical Transparency

Real-time availability. Actual costs. Genuine reviews. No hidden agendas, no marketing manipulation, no false promises. Just the truth you need to make informed decisions.

Immediate Action

When someone is ready for help, they need it now. Not tomorrow, not after a week of phone calls. Our platform connects people to care in minutes, not days.

Product Vision

What we’re building

A recovery platform that treats people like humans, not leads. Where transparency replaces manipulation, and where finding help is as simple as it should be.

Smart Matching

AI that actually understands your needs, insurance, and location to connect you with the right care immediately.

Live Availability

Real-time bed counts that update every day. No more calling full facilities or getting your hopes up unnecessarily.

Verified Providers

Every facility is licensed, vetted, and regularly audited. We stake our reputation on the quality of our network.

Direct Connection

Skip the middlemen. Connect directly with intake coordinators who can admit you the same day.

Precision Matching

Match based on your specific needs: co-occurring disorders, trauma-informed care, LGBTQ+ affirmative treatment.

Outcome Tracking

We track real outcomes, not just admissions. Providers in our network are accountable for results.

Who we serve

People in Crisis

Individuals ready to take the hardest step of their lives deserve immediate, honest support — not a sales process.

Families

Parents, siblings, and loved ones who need clear information and immediate action, not false hope and runarounds.

Healthcare Providers

Hospitals, case managers, and clinicians who need reliable placement options for their patients, not marketing pitches.

We're not building another directory. We're building the platform the recovery industry should have had from the beginning.
Our Values

Our line in the sand

No Advertising Revenue

We will never take money to promote one facility over another. Our recommendations are based on your needs, not who pays us more.

Real-Time Truth

Every facility in our network updates their availability in real-time. No more ghost listings or outdated information.

No Lead Generation

We don’t sell your information. We don’t pass you around to sales teams. Your crisis is not our business opportunity.

Outcome Accountability

Facilities in our network are accountable for patient outcomes, not just admissions. Quality matters more than quantity.

The story

The recovery industry has lost its way. While millions of Americans struggle with addiction, the systems designed to help them have become riddled with advertising, lead generation, and profit-first thinking.

We’ve watched families spend precious hours calling facilities that don’t have beds. We’ve seen people in crisis navigate marketing funnels instead of getting immediate care. We’ve witnessed the gap between what people need and what the system provides.

That gap isn’t a bug in the system — it’s the business model. And we’re done with it.

Rize exists to prove that healthcare technology can serve people instead of exploiting them. That transparency beats manipulation. That urgent care for urgent needs isn’t too much to ask.

Ready to be part of the solution?

Whether you need care, provide care, or want to fix this broken system alongside us — there’s a place for you at Rize.
