What Scheduling Wizard does

Scheduling Wizard is building the logistics infrastructure to modernize healthcare operations. Hospitals still rely on manual workflows to manage staffing, patient flow, and core operations, contributing to $760B in annual inefficiency. 20 departments across 16 hospitals already outsource their physician scheduling to us, powered by our internal Scheduling Programming Language and AI-driven workflows. We work with Mass General, Johns Hopkins, UT Southwestern, UCSF, and many others. We are actively onboarding new clients and expanding into patient triaging and provider management systems, working with partner departments at UCSF and other leading institutions. Scheduling Wizard aims to bring healthcare operations into the future by reducing administrative burden and improving clinical care coordination. Our goal is to create the AI-native administrative layer in healthcare operations.

Logistics infrastructure for healthcare operations

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

We are building scheduling and logistics tools tailored to healthcare operations. Our product replaces manual workflows hospitals still rely on for staffing, patient flow, and core operations. It includes a Scheduling Programming Language and AI-driven workflows that automate physician scheduling and other operational logistics.

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

We haven't specified a location publicly; the company is distributed among the founders now, and after YC, we would base operations where it makes the most sense for healthcare customers and our team.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Our founders are focused on working closely with hospitals, so location depends on proximity to clients like Mass General, Johns Hopkins, UT Southwestern, and UCSF. We prioritize being near major healthcare institutions and maintaining flexibility to ship continuously.
