Welcome back to the Pear Healthcare Playbook!
Today we're thrilled to sit down with Othman Laraki, Co-founder and CEO of Color Health, a company reinventing cancer care through a virtual-first, end-to-end model. Othman has spent his career at the intersection of technology and healthcare—from helping build Chrome at Google to leading product at Twitter to founding Color, where he now focuses on expanding access to high-quality cancer prevention, screening, and treatment.
In this episode, we explore how Color got started, what the team learned transitioning from genomics into full-stack care delivery, and why reducing friction across the care pathway is critical for improving outcomes. We dive into how Color’s model works across the entire cancer journey, how the company thinks about system-level change and distribution, and how AI—through collaborations with OpenAI and Google Cloud—is powering new capabilities for patients and clinicians.
