Why Pathmarker
The care you promise happens between appointments.
Three problems every membership practice runs into, followed through one illustrative member, Ana.
Sep 2 · A plan is agreedAna, 52, and her practitioner agree a 12-week plan. Ana is illustrative, not a real patient.
The thought every owner has had
I don't know if they're following the plan, or if it's working, until I see them again.
You don't need more data. You need to know which patients may need your attention.
See what's working and step in when it isn't.

Around every appointment
Admin eats the practitioner's day.
Better care can't depend on finding more hours in the day.
Cut the busywork around every appointment.
Rereading the chart. Researching the patient's issues. Piecing the full picture together. Writing the note. Pathmarker assembles and drafts; a practitioner reviews, edits and signs.

Why memberships get fragile
Patients stop feeling the value between visits.
Patients stay when they can feel the value between appointments.
Make the membership something they feel every week.
The care plan shouldn't disappear into a note until the next appointment. Ana's effort produced something she can see and understand, and the plan keeps living in her app between visits.
Members hear from the practice every week.
A check-in prompt, a follow-up, a note when something changes — none of it written by hand.
Goals, next steps and check-ins live in the app.
What was agreed in the room stays in view, so Ana works with the plan rather than remembering it.

What that's worth to the practice
$100K/yr
is what ten renewals are worth to a 200-member clinic at a $10,000 average annual fee. Hold on to ten members you would otherwise have lost and that is the money back in the practice. Illustrative math on a reference clinic. Your practice, your numbers.

Studies in a systematic review found higher continuity of care linked to significantly lower mortality.2
Why it holds
Continuity is the mechanism under both: members who feel the practice between visits stay with it, and the relationship compounds rather than resetting each appointment.
1Sandvik H et al., “Continuity in general practice as predictor of mortality, acute hospitalisation, and use of out-of-hours care.” Br J Gen Pract. 2022;72(715):e84–e90.
2Pereira Gray DJ et al., “Continuity of care with doctors — a matter of life and death?” BMJ Open. 2018;8:e021161.
Both findings are observational: an association, not proof that continuity causes the outcomes, and they measure health rather than renewal. They are third-party research on continuity of care, not a study of Pathmarker.
Founder
Built by a practitioner who runs a longevity practice.
Dr. Mary Pines runs a longevity practice and co-founded Pathmarker. The product follows the shape of her weeks: the plan agreed in the room, the stretch of ordinary days that follows, and the moment a check-in or a result says something has changed.
“The visit was never the hard part. It was everything around it. Between appointments, I couldn’t easily see whether a patient was following the plan or whether it was working. Then, before the next visit, I’d be piecing their story back together from notes, labs, symptoms, wearables and everything that had happened in between.
I wanted one place where I could see the whole patient, with AI helping me get up to speed quickly instead of spending my time reconstructing the chart.
I wanted to walk into every appointment already knowing. That’s why we built Pathmarker.”
Dr. Mary Pines
