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.
