What Plena Health does

Plena is the AI operating system for specialty medical practices. We automate the administrative workflows that keep clinics running - referrals, fax intake, scheduling, procedure compliance, and collections - end to end, across all the systems a practice already uses. Unlike point solutions that cover a slice of the problem, Plena becomes the operating layer across the entire practice, connecting the systems, teams, and workflows that keep it running. In 10 months we've grown 17x and crossed seven figures in committed ARR across six specialties and eight states, with 80% of growth through word of mouth.

AI operating system for specialty clinics

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

We're building an AI-powered operating system that automates the administrative work specialty medical practices struggle with - that means referrals, fax intake, scheduling, procedure compliance, and collections. Our software connects all the existing systems a clinic uses and runs the entire workflow end to end, not just parts of it.

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

We're based in San Francisco, CA, and will continue to be based there after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We live in San Francisco because it's where we have access to both talent and early customers in specialty medical practices. Staying here helps us move fast and stay connected to healthcare tech.
