Generative AI has the potential to revolutionize health care. In an industry overflowing with data and tasks that are time-consuming and expensive, AI offers a powerful solution to automate workflows, create new insights, and improve the quality of care. But not all health AI companies are created equally. Health care is a double-edged sword—tough for companies to break into, but incredibly sticky once they do. That’s why we focus on health AI companies that practitioners actually use—those with a clear technological edge and a unique go-to-market strategy. While this is far from complete, here are some of the companies creating tangible value across patients, providers, pharmaceutical companies, and payers right now: 🏥 For patients: Improving care and trust 👨⚕️ For providers: Reducing the administrative burden 💊 For pharma: Accelerating drug discovery 📋 For payers: Navigating complex regulations Kudos to all the companies recognized as health AI pioneers. Check out the full overview developed by Yuri, Cynthia and Somesh, through the link in the comments.
