DOGE for the private sector is here. @Special co-founders @natecavanaugh & @jfox___ spent worked at DOGE in 2025 and left motivated to extend the ethos of DOGE back into the private sector. We asked them what they're actually building: "We're not planning on replacing nurses with robots. We're focused on human-centric industries... give superpowers to the nurse." "On an hour-long home visit, a nurse might have to type up notes for one or two hours after the visit." "If we can streamline that so the administrative work is replaced, all of a sudden the job is a little bit easier. The nurse just spends face-to-face time with the patient." "The patients are happier. The nurse gets more visits done, services more Americans, this is one of those spaces where it's just a win-win for everybody if we can use AI in the right ways."

Let’s go!🫡🇺🇸
10,000 Americans turn 65 every day. There's a nursing shortage of 300,000. The businesses serving them are massively underoptimized. @natecavanaugh left DOGE and built SpecialOS to fix it, starting with senior care. @mantisVC is proud to back this team, let's build! @AlexPallNY @MilanKoch

“The name Special pays tribute to those we believe are the greatest movers of society: the builders, the creators, the people who put it all on the line and just go for it. Special pledges allegiance not only to the United States, but to those in the arena— the ones courageous enough to move the world forward.” Proud to back Nate Cavanaugh, Justin Fox, Finnegan McNinch and the entire team at @Special. 🇺🇸💪🚀 @natecavanaugh @jfox___ @FinneganMcNinch
