Our story

Factually Health has one mission - to empower the world with factual health information.

Today, the entire Factually Health team shares the same vision and mission: to enable health-focused companies and organizations to share factual health information with their patients, and customers and communities.

Put simply: Bad info is bad for people, and it’s bad for businesses and organizations.

Factually Health’s founding team included Lina Forcier, a Ph.D. in epidemiology, with years of experience leading valuable and impactful work globally, and understanding people’s health journeys; Genevieve Poliquin, a seasoned professional in startups and enterprises; Leo Hartman, Ph.D. in computer science and AI; and Lucas Nogueira, a specialist in big data and AI. They envisioned an AI-powered driven platform that could provide factual, easily accessible health information.

The founding team transitioned into various active roles, and, in 2021, Pascal Soucy joined the company as CTO, bringing a wealth of experience in enterprise AI to work alongside the team, and Lina Forcier, who continues to lead as CEO.
With rapid advances in technology, the amount of health information and misinformation has become an accelerating threat, leading to confusion, mistrust, and significant negative impacts on health outcomes and costs. Factually Health leverages modern AI technology to face these challenges, combat misinformation, and ensures everyone can easily access factual health information.
Today, the entire Factually Health team shares the same vision and mission: to enable health-focused companies to share factual health information with their staff, patients, customers and communities. We would love for you to join us in our mission to empower the world with factual health information.
