About the company

Clasp provides education financing using Income Share Agreements to fund students for college, coding bootcamps, and vocational programs, and also offers financial planning resources and employer partnerships. It works by giving funding in exchange for a share of the student’s future income for a set period, with repayments based on earned income rather than fixed payments. Clasp differentiates itself from traditional lenders by tying revenue to student outcomes through ISAs, emphasizing employer partnerships and a mission-driven approach to support inclusivity and success. Its goal is to help learners fund their education without heavy debt, improve career outcomes, and strengthen workforces by supporting funded graduates toward sustainable employment.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Series B closed March 26, 2026, adding $20 million and lifting capital to $50 million.
  • Clasp says employers use its platform across 1,140 programs and 10,000 students.
  • July 2026 federal loan caps intensified healthcare hiring demand and student-debt pressure.

What critics are saying

  • Healthcare revenue concentration exposes Clasp to budget cuts and hiring freezes at health systems.
  • Loan-repayment incentives expire when employees quit, so weak retention breaks unit economics.
  • Vemo Education, GradFin, and staffing firms can copy the perk and undercut pricing.

What makes Clasp unique

  • Clasp sells retention, not recruiting: employers repay loans only while clinicians stay.
  • Boston Children’s, Northwestern Medicine, and Memorial Sloan Kettering anchor Clasp’s healthcare credibility.
  • By March 2026, Clasp had committed over $130 million in loan repayment.

Clasp raises $20M to tackle healthcare worker turnover with loan repayment incentives

Clasp, a healthcare retention recruitment platform, has raised $20 million in Series B funding led by Crosslink Capital and Digitalis Ventures, bringing total capital raised to $50 million. The company replaces traditional sign-on bonuses with loan repayment programmes linked to employee tenure. Clasp works with major health systems including Boston Children's Hospital and Memorial Sloan Kettering. The company claims its approach drives retention rates 2.5 times higher than traditional hiring models, with over $130 million in employer commitments made to date. The funding comes as new federal loan caps take effect in July, limiting graduate students to $20,500 annually and $100,000 aggregate borrowing. Healthcare employers have quadrupled over the past year, as clinician turnover costs organisations up to $500,000 per physician.
