- Milestone Tax Solutions
Legal, Fintech
Milestone Tax Solutions, LLC is a tax resolution firm that provides representation and guidance for individuals and businesses facing challenges with the IRS and state tax authorities. The firm was established in March 2025 and is managed by Thom Hipke and Dave Evans. It operates with a team of tax attorneys and enrolled agents who specialize in navigating the complexities of the tax system to resolve client liabilities. The company's business model centers on acting as an intermediary between the taxpayer and the IRS. Milestone Tax Solutions focuses on clients with significant tax debt, typically starting from $10,000. The firm leverages technology to access IRS files and communications more efficiently, aiming to develop and implement resolution strategies faster than traditional methods. The process begins with an investigation phase to understand the full scope of a client's tax situation, followed by a resolution phase where the firm negotiates directly with the IRS on the client's behalf. A core service is the Offer-In-Compromise (OIC) program, where the firm negotiates with the IRS to reduce a client's tax debt based on their financial situation. For clients who do not qualify for an OIC, Milestone Tax Solutions works to structure manageable payment plans, which can include negotiating for penalty abatements or a temporary pause in payments. The firm also assists clients in disputing tax liabilities they believe are incorrect, helps stop aggressive collection actions such as wage garnishments and bank levies, and prepares delinquent tax returns to bring clients back into compliance.

- Mindplane
Enterprise software
Mindplane provides a decision control plane designed for automated operations. The system is built for Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), Platform, Operations, and AI/ML teams who utilize automation or agents in a production environment. It addresses the challenge of reconstructing events when automated or AI-driven processes fail by creating deterministic and queryable "decision receipts" for every action. The platform functions by sitting between the intent of an action and its execution. It captures the intent, assembles the context, runs validators, and then decides to either allow or deny the action. This entire process is recorded as a decision receipt on a tamper-evident, hash-chained ledger. These receipts contain details of the intent, context, validators, and the final outcome, all queryable by a unique Run ID, which provides an auditable trail across different tools and environments. This process is designed to make automated decisions explainable, reviewable, and traceable, thereby reducing ambiguity during incidents. Mindplane's architecture is structured in three layers: the Signals layer, which ingests raw events; the Runs layer, where the decision control path operates; and the Trust Ledger, an append-only, immutable record of all decisions. The current version of the product focuses on visibility and auditing, with features like deterministic decision receipts and integrations with GitHub and Slack. Future developments are planned to include enforceable approvals and action blocking.

- Mindset Medical
Health
Headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, Mindset Medical operates within the digital health sector, providing a virtual health platform for healthcare providers. The founding team, which includes several members from the surgical robotics platform Excelsius Surgical, brings extensive experience in medical technology. Foster's background includes leadership roles at GE Healthcare, Synthes, and as CEO and co-founder of Excelsius Surgical, which developed a robotic technology for spine surgery. Dr. Theodore is the Director of the Neurosurgical Spine Program at Johns Hopkins. The company's core business revolves around its software as a medical device (SaaS) platform, which aims to enhance virtual care by integrating objective physiological data into telehealth interactions. Mindset Medical targets healthcare provider offices, hospitals, clinics, and long-term care facilities, offering its solutions on an annual subscription basis. The business model is designed to address challenges such as physician shortages and an aging population by enabling remote care and monitoring through patients' own devices. The primary product is the Informed Vital Core (IVC) App, a software-only medical device that transforms smartphones, tablets, and laptops into contactless vital sign measurement tools. This is achieved using proprietary signal-processing algorithms and remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) technology, which analyzes video to detect subtle changes in skin color caused by blood flow, thereby measuring vital signs without physical contact or dedicated hardware. Patients receive a secure, encrypted link via text message, eliminating the need to download an application. The platform facilitates patient intake, assessments, triage, virtual exams, and remote patient monitoring. A key milestone for the company was receiving its first FDA 510(k) clearance in November 2024 for its contactless pulse rate measurement feature. This was followed by a second FDA 510(k) clearance in June 2025 for contactless respiratory rate measurement. The company plans to pursue further FDA approvals for additional measurements, including blood pressure. Financially, Mindset Medical has secured funding through multiple rounds. In 2018, it raised over $1 million to expand its initial patient-engagement platform, 'Informed'. More recently, the company closed a Series A financing round in June 2024, led by Grayhawk Capital and Questa Capital, with participation from Amgen Ventures and others, to fund further development and clinical studies. Tracxn reports a total of $9.85M raised over 7 rounds.
