C the Signs
Early cancer detection decision-support for primary care
Health data & AI platforms
London platform using validated clinical datapoints to flag likely cancer cases in primary care within around 60 seconds, founded by a practising GP.
The read
C the Signs analyses GP-entered patient data against validated clinical criteria to flag likely cancer cases in primary care and recommend the appropriate referral pathway within roughly 60 seconds, aiming to shorten the time between symptom presentation and specialist referral.
Founded by practising GP Dr Bea Bakshi, the company has run live studies with several NHS ICBs, including Somerset, and continues to raise from health-focused venture investors including Khosla Ventures and Google for Startups.
The Bridgehead view
A founder who is also a practising NHS GP gives C the Signs a credibility angle most AI-diagnostics vendors in this cohort can't claim, and its editorial story should lean on that clinical authenticity rather than compete on funding-round size alone against much better-capitalised peers.
