Rovi Health is a New York-based digital health startup (Y Combinator F25) that gives employer health plans an AI-powered, text-first care concierge. Members text a nurse-guided clinician who treats common conditions virtually, then steer them to high-quality, in-network providers using terabytes of price and quality data - catching expensive care before it is scheduled. Founded in 2025 by brothers Santosh and Tarun Vallabhaneni, Rovi claims employers can cut 10-20% of annual healthcare spend while employees get concierge-level care.
