Zack Scott, CTO Trustate
Scott most recently served as Director of Product and Customer Integration at Edgility, where he played a key leadership role in scaling the company’s AI-powered healthcare technology platform. He was instrumental in Edgility’s successful acquisition by ABOUT Healthcare, a transaction that combined advanced predictive analytics with care orchestration infrastructure to create a powerful, enterprise-grade solution across the patient journey.
Prior to Edgility, Scott held leadership roles at IBM Watson Health, where he led strategic advisory and integration initiatives for healthcare systems, clinically integrated networks, and enterprise organizations. In this role, he helped design and implement large-scale data integration, governance, and AI-driven solutions, experience that directly aligns with Trustate’s mission to modernize fragmented, data-heavy workflows.
He later built on this foundation in senior product and innovation roles at University Hospitals and University Hospitals Ventures, where he drove analytics, innovation, and portfolio strategy across one of the nation’s leading healthcare systems.
“Trustate has reached an inflection point,” said Leah Del Percio, CEO and Co-Founder of Trustate. “We’ve built a platform trusted by thousands of firms and proven its impact by helping uncover billions in assets and liabilities. Zack has repeatedly demonstrated his ability to build, scale, and commercialize complex technology platforms, including helping lead a company through a successful acquisition. His experience makes him the ideal person to lead Trustate into its next era of innovation.”
Trustate has experienced rapid growth in recent years, helping legal and financial professionals uncover more than $3.32 billion in previously unknown assets and liabilities while also building advanced technology that allows professionals to draft and automate complex legal documents. With the recent launch of Foxhound by Trustate, its standalone asset and liability discovery platform, the company is expanding into adjacent markets including bankruptcy, divorce, and wealth management.
As CTO, Scott will lead Trustate’s engineering, product, and data strategy, with a focus on scalability, security, and continued innovation across its AI-powered platform.
“Zack brings exactly the kind of leadership we need at this stage,” said Tara Faquir, Co-Founder and COO of Trustate. “He has successfully operated at the intersection of AI, data, and complex system integration, from IBM Watson Health to helping lead a company through acquisition at Edgility. As we scale Trustate into a category-defining platform, his ability to translate technical complexity into real-world impact will be a major advantage.”
“Trustate is solving a massive, overlooked problem with real impact for professionals and the families they serve,” said Scott. “I’m excited to join a team that is not only building powerful technology, but fundamentally changing how critical legal and financial processes are handled. There is an enormous opportunity ahead.”
Scott’s appointment reflects Trustate’s continued investment in enterprise leadership as the company accelerates product development, expands into adjacent legal markets through Foxhound, and scales its platform for the next generation of legal technology.
