The Staffing Company Trying to Turn Hospital Chaos Into a Control Panel

Stepful
Stepful is a New York-based healthcare education company that trains people for entry-level allied-health jobs - medical assistants, pharmacy technicians, surgical techs and more - through fast, affordable, AI-supported online programs. Roughly four months and about $2,500 replace a two-year, $20,000 community-college track, and graduates are funneled toward clinical hours and full-time jobs through a network of partner clinics and hospitals. The company pairs a B2C learner business with a growing B2B arm that helps health systems build their own talent pipelines, positioning itself as an end-to-end answer to the U.S. healthcare worker shortage.
