Why We Built Upstreamed

Riley Konara, MD

TRIPLE-BOARD CERTIFIED PHYSICIAN

Co-Founder, Upstreamed Inc.

U.S. ARMY VETERAN

During the pandemic, I watched brilliant physicians struggle to share critical insights — delayed by journals, ghosted by peer reviewers, and ignored by the people who needed their expertise most.

They did the work. Others took the credit — and the revenue.

We built Upstreamed to fix that.

Our mission is simple: to help evidence-based expertise get published, seen, credited, and compensated.

No gatekeepers. No inbox spam. Just real impact — and ownership.

Post. Discover. Earn.

Share your expertise with credibility, grow your audience, and earn from your work — without waiting on journals.
