In today's digital age, Software as a Service (SaaS) has emerged as a cornerstone of cloud computing, transforming how businesses and individuals access and utilize software applications. 

This cloud-based software deployment model has become increasingly popular due to its accessibility, cost-effectiveness, and scalability. Now, SaaS is making significant inroads in the pharmaceutical and life sciences industries, offering solutions to longstanding challenges and driving innovation.

The pharmaceutical industry faces a daunting challenge: it takes an average of 12 years and $3 billion to bring a new drug to patients, with the FDA approving an average of 50 new therapies yearly. 

This pace is inadequate to address humanity's needs and our own future goal of helping the industry produce ten times the number of treatments it does today. 

A significant bottleneck is the lengthy clinical trial process, where Phase 3 studies alone can span three years or more. However, a critical factor compounding these timelines is the difficulty in recruiting sufficient patients for these crucial studies, often adding up to 2 years to the already protracted journey.
