Medical language models to automate healthcare operations
We're building language models trained on medical data to reduce operational burdens in healthcare. Our flagship product automates prior authorizations for critical medications by analyzing EHR data and highlighting the information payers and providers need to approve these approvals faster.
We live in San Francisco, CA, and the company is based there.
San Francisco is a natural base for us because of the tech talent and proximity to healthcare innovation hubs in the Bay Area.
