Develop Health

Develop Health is a San Francisco Bay Area healthtech company building AI that removes the paperwork between a doctor writing a prescription and a patient actually getting it. Its EHR-integrated platform uses more than a dozen purpose-built large language model pipelines to verify insurance coverage in real time, assemble and submit the correct prior authorization package, track status, and draft appeals for denials - work that normally consumes hours of a care team's day. Founded in 2022 by former Canvas Medical and Rupa Health operators, the company raised a $14.3M Series A in August 2025 and says it cuts medication-access admin work by roughly 83% while supporting hundreds of thousands of patients a month.
