The Back Office Behind One in Five American Doctor Visits
athenahealth doesn't see patients. It runs the billing, charts, and reminders for the clinicians who do - and it's betting the whole network on AI.
Perspectives Health
Perspectives Health builds AI agents that take on the paperwork behind behavioral health care. Its software reviews patient charts every night, flags documentation that would trigger an insurance denial, writes clinical notes, and assembles utilization-review packets - so addiction and mental health programs get paid and clinicians spend less time on forms. Founded in 2024 and backed by Y Combinator's Summer 2025 batch, the company reports piloting across a dozen-plus clinics and reaching $250K in committed ARR within four weeks of launch.
Ritivel
Ritivel is an AI-native workspace for regulatory and medical writing teams at life sciences companies. Its AI agents draft dense regulatory documents - CTDs, CSRs, INDs, and BLAs - directly in Microsoft Word, following FDA formatting rules and pulling from a company's own clinical data and prior submissions, with every claim cited back to its source. The goal is to compress work that normally takes weeks of manual synthesis into minutes, helping drugs reach patients sooner.
Corti
Corti is a Copenhagen-based healthcare AI company that builds clinical-grade models and APIs helping developers and health systems automate medical conversations. Its Symphony model powers speech-to-text, medical coding, clinical note generation, and agentic workflows, serving roughly 100 million patient interactions a year across providers, insurers, EHR vendors, and public-safety dispatch centers - including the NHS. Corti positions itself as privacy-compliant, healthcare-specialized infrastructure that outperforms general-purpose models on medical tasks.
Laguna Health
Laguna Health is a healthtech company building conversational AI for care teams. Its platform, anchored by the Laguna Companion co-pilot, the Laguna Insight analytics layer, and the LISA family of AI agents, listens to member calls, automates clinical documentation, and surfaces context so care managers - typically nurses - can spend less time on paperwork and more time supporting patients recovering after hospital stays. Founded in 2020 by Yoni Shtein and Yael Adam, the company serves health plans, payers, and virtual care organizations from offices in Tel Aviv and New York.
medaptus
medaptus is a Boston-based healthcare software company that automates the mid-revenue cycle for hospitals and physician groups.

Founded in 2000 by two physicians, the company has been trusted by hundreds of hospitals for more than two decades and was acquired by Volaris Group in 2020.
Regard
Regard is a New York-based healthcare AI company that builds a clinical insights platform acting as an AI co-pilot for physicians.

The company automates medical coding, clinical documentation, claim scrubbing and denial recovery across 25+ specialties, has raised about $11 million including an $8 million Series A led by Accel, and grew roughly sixfold in its first year.
DeepScribe
DeepScribe is a San Francisco-based health-tech company building an ambient AI medical scribe that listens to natural doctor-patient conversations and turns them into complete, structured clinical notes in real time. Founded in 2017, the company has narrowed its focus to oncology, where it says it serves roughly 90% of U.S. community oncology organizations, and layers on tools for coding, pre-visit prep, and specialty-specific customization. The pitch is straightforward: let clinicians look at their patients instead of their keyboards, and cut the after-hours documentation that drives burnout.
Sully.ai
Sully.ai is a Mountain View healthcare technology company that builds a 'superhuman team of AI employees' for hospitals and clinics - autonomous AI agents that handle front-desk reception, triage, ambient clinical scribing, medical coding, prescriptions and clinical decision support. The agents plug into existing EHRs like Epic and Athenahealth, aiming to cut administrative load and clinician burnout while keeping documentation HIPAA-compliant. Founded in 2023 and backed by Y Combinator, the company reached seven-figure ARR within ten months and raised a ~$21.8M Series A in January 2025.
Theator

Its platform reads the operative note, codes the case, validates each charge against more than 80,000 payer rules with a tri-engine system, and generates a submission-ready claim in under 30 seconds - leaving humans to review and submit. Founded in 2024 by Athena Doshi and a clinician-and-engineer team, the company positions itself as access-to-care infrastructure rather than billing software, aiming to recover the revenue that denials and documentation gaps quietly drain from surgical facilities.
IO Health
IO Health is a Pasadena-based healthcare technology company building an AI-powered workflow intelligence platform for home health and hospice agencies. Rather than replacing an agency's electronic medical record, its software sits on top of the existing EMR as a real-time overlay, catching documentation errors, OASIS inconsistencies, and compliance gaps at the point of care - before they reach a QA reviewer or a Medicare auditor. Founded in 2023 by home health operators and led by CEO Dr. David Bell, the company closed a $2 million seed round led by Nina Capital in October 2025.
Quadrant Health
Quadrant Health builds AI voice and agentic workflows that run natively inside the electronic health records clinicians already use - Epic, athenahealth, eClinicalWorks and Medent. Founded in 2021 out of Y Combinator's Winter 2021 batch, the company started by analyzing EHR and messaging data to predict disease before it occurs, then pivoted into AI agents that handle the operational grind of a medical practice: an AI scribe that drafts EHR-ready notes in real time, and administrative agents that answer calls 24/7, book appointments, collect intake, process refill requests and close care gaps in 20+ languages. Led by co-founder and CEO Anin Sayana, Quadrant sells HIPAA- and SOC2-compliant software to providers, payers and life sciences organizations.
Canvas Medical
Canvas Medical builds programmable EMR infrastructure for the companies reinventing how care gets delivered. Its ONC-certified electronic medical record pairs a FHIR API and a Workflow SDK so clinicians and developers can extend the chart like software, then layers AI agents - led by the open-source Hyperscribe ambient copilot - that listen, document, place orders, and prep claims in real time. Founded in 2015 in San Francisco, Canvas powers primary care, behavioral health, weight loss, longevity, and other modern clinics that want their EMR to bend to their workflows instead of the other way around.
David Bell
David Bell is the founder and CEO of IO Health, a Pasadena-based AI startup building a real-time workflow intelligence layer that sits on top of existing EMRs to help home health and hospice clinicians document care accurately at the point of care. Before IO Health he spent roughly a decade as owner-operator and CEO of GrandCare Health Services, which he grew into a 5-star-rated Southern California home health provider before it was acquired by The Pennant Group in 2025. An engineer-turned-operator with degrees spanning physics, business, and rehabilitation robotics, Bell raised a $2M seed round led by Nina Capital in October 2025 to scale IO Health's compliance and quality platform.
Avora
Avora builds AI agents for dental operations. Its agents listen to appointments, draft clinically accurate chart notes, coach providers in real time on treatment-plan communication, and surface practice-level analytics for dental practices and DSOs.

Founded by physician Joshua Reischer, MD, its platform collects patient information before an appointment through conversational texting and AI voice agents, then turns that data into structured EHR documentation and pre-written clinical notes. The goal is to cut the paperwork and phone-tag that drives physician burnout, shorten check-in times, and let care teams spend more time with patients and less with screens.
Olli Health
Olli Health is a Madison, Wisconsin healthtech company that runs an AI-powered managed service for home health coding and OASIS quality review. It pairs proprietary clinical AI with certified human coders to turn raw patient charts into accurate ICD-10 diagnosis codes and reviewed documentation - reportedly at 98%+ accuracy, roughly 4x faster turnaround, and about half the cost of traditional coding vendors. Founded in 2023 by Eric Steege, Joe Freudenthal, and Jeremy Gordon, Olli serves home health agencies that collectively care for hundreds of thousands of patients, and raised a $10M Series A in late 2025.
