Admin automation for healthcare

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We build software that automates administrative work for behavioral health clinicians. Our product reduces the manual tasks around documentation, billing, and care coordination so clinicians can spend more time with patients and less on paperwork.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We are based in New York City, and post-YC we intend to keep our company headquartered here to stay close to a large healthcare ecosystem and our early customers.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Medical and mental health providers are concentrated in cities with strong healthcare networks like NYC, so we want to be where our users and partners are. It also helps with recruiting and building a team.
