Why we started
Studies can only answer their questions if enough people take part, and many of them close late or come up short. Meanwhile, plenty of people would happily volunteer if someone simply told them a suitable study was nearby.
Origin sits in that gap. You tell us your ZIP code and the area of health that matters most to you. We read the requirements that recruiting studies publish, compare them with what you shared, and send you a text when a study near you looks like a fit.
We also write plainly about research itself, because a good decision needs good information. Our guides cover screening, placebos, your data and what happens when a study ends.
