- In the first 6 months, you’ll be responsible for setting up the foundations for long term success, investing in platform observability, reliability, and scalability

Our take
Healthcare providers often find themselves overwhelmed by administrative duties like form filing and record coding, detracting from their primary focus on patient care. While these tasks are essential for billing and compliance, they are time-consuming and prone to errors.
In response to this challenge, Ambience Healthcare offers an AI-powered "operating system" designed specifically for healthcare organizations. Its suite of tools automates documentation, coding, and referrals, streamlining workflows for clinicians while enhancing accuracy.
Recently closing a successful funding round, the company plans to expand its business in the US and potentially include diagnosis in the future. While facing competition from startups like Corti and Nabla, Ambience is well-positioned with strong investor backing and a clear focus.
