The Lens Magazine
Long-form editorial from inside private medtech.
Founder profiles, category deep-dives, and the context that data alone can’t give you.
The Compass Platform
Every private-medtech signal, in one workspace
Verified companies, investors, and deals — plus an AI agent that reasons over all of it and cites its work. Everything an analyst needs, without the manual stitching.
01 // The data layer
Four connected databases,
one verified source of truth.
Companies, investors, deals, and LSI Insights are cross-linked and analyst-verified — so every filter, sort, and export holds up in a diligence meeting.

02 // The AI agent
Ask in plain language.
Get output you can defend
Three modes, one agent — all grounded in verified LSI data, never the open web.
Deep Research
Multi-step questions across the whole dataset — comparisons, landscapes, and trend analysis with citations.
Company Report
A structured, sourced profile on any company — markets, funding, relationships, and status in one page.
Ask
Quick, conversational answers with links back to the exact records they came from.
03 // Works in your stack
Bring Compass into the AI tools you already use — over MCP.
Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and your own agents call Compass directly — answering with LSI’s verified data instead of guessing.
04 // Context around the data
Editorial, summits, and lists,
the story behind the numbers
Video Library
Keynotes & fireside chats from LSI summits.
Hundreds of sessions from USA, EU, and Asia — searchable by theme and event.
Reports & Lists
Curated lists and
funding reports.
Hot 25, Soon-icorns, and the Funding Report — refreshed as the market moves.
Primary research
Original, first-hand medtech data built over decades — never scraped, never resold.
Direct relationships
Sourced straight from the companies and investors actually shaping the field.
LSI summits
Gathered where medtech’s decision-makers convene — across the USA, EU and Asia.
Analyst-verified
Every profile and figure checked by a working analyst before it ever reaches you.
