Today we're thrilled to share our interview with Vikas Sabnani, Co-founder and CEO of Marit Health, a free, AI-powered career community platform built for physicians and advanced practice providers. Clinicians share their own compensation data and in exchange get access to tens of thousands of real peer-reported salaries across every specialty and state, including the details that actually matter like base pay, bonuses, call schedules, hours worked, PTO, and benefits. Think of it as a Glassdoor for medicine. Marit also runs an AI powered jobs platform that matches clinicians to roles based on their specific preferences. In just fifteen months since launching, more than 100,000 clinicians have joined, making Marit one of the fastest growing community platforms in medicine [1]. Before Marit, Vikas spent seven years at Glassdoor and then joined Transcarent as head of product. In this conversation, Vikas walks through his path from Glassdoor to healthcare, how Marit's co-founder started the company on a Google Sheet, the anonymization architecture that protects physicians in small specialties, and how the platform is turning transparency into a business.
