Problem
The U.S. healthcare system lacks price transparency, making it difficult for patients to understand and compare costs for medical procedures. Patients often face unexpected medical bills and struggle to make informed financial decisions about their care due to the absence of clear pricing information.
Solution
Finestra is a platform designed to provide patients with transparent pricing for medical procedures. It aggregates and analyzes verified medical bills from other patients to create a database of real-world costs. By accessing this information, users can compare prices for specific procedures across different providers and locations. This enables them to make informed decisions about their healthcare spending and avoid unexpected bills.

Finestra's primary target audience is patients in the United States who are seeking greater price transparency in healthcare and want to make informed financial decisions about their medical care.
