Topography

Topography (Topography Health, Inc.) was a full-stack clinical trials platform that empowered community and private-practice physicians to run clinical drug trials in their local communities across North America, reducing the administrative burden of becoming a clinical trialist. Founded in 2020 by Alexander Saint-Amand, Mac Parish, and Andrew Kirchner and based in New York and Los Angeles, the company launched in January 2022 with $27.5M in funding, including a $21.5M Series A led by Bain Capital Ventures and Andreessen Horowitz (a16z). In 2026 Topography Health's Site Business Unit was acquired by FOMAT Medical Research, and the company's public site is now a single-page acquisition announcement. Topography was a B2B clinical-research SaaS, not a developer-facing API company: no public developer portal, API documentation, OpenAPI, SDKs, or other machine-readable API surface was ever published, and none exists today.

Topography is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Clinical Trials, Clinical Research, Healthcare, and Life Sciences.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Health regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/.
