About

We deliver high-quality, cost-effective healthcare to employees through text. Employers cut 10–20% of healthcare spend. Employees get concierge care that improves outcomes. Our AI agents analyze clinical data to spot upcoming care. We treat common conditions through our virtual clinic. For more complex care, our agents find the best in-network providers using millions of price and quality data points, and handle end-to-end appointment booking. Employees are rewarded for choosing high-value care through copay reimbursements. We're rolling out to thousands of employees across multiple employers for the 2025-2026 plan year. Our goal is to build AI-native infrastructure that powers the next-generation of health insurance, starting with cost containment.
