Nimbus Health: Plenty of Demand, Nothing to Buy
Nimbus Health runs a digital health marketplace in US, live in 11 cities.
Last month: 303,355 active buyers, 15,668 active sellers, 645,360 searches, and an overall fill rate of 70%.
That average conceals a wide spread. The three largest cities fill at about 80%. The bottom half of cities fill at around 27%.
Growth marketing has been buying buyer-side installs, because buyer acquisition is cheaper and the install numbers look good in the board deck. Supply acquisition is manual and slow.

Advise the general manager. Your answer should provide:
- Analysis — which side is constrained, where, and what the fill rate really says.
- Risks — what happens if you keep acquiring on the current side.
- Recommendation — which side, which cities, which mechanism, and the metric that proves it.
State any assumptions you make.

Liquidity is local. Find the constrained side per geography, stop acquiring on the long side, and concentrate supply until density crosses the threshold.
