New York startup Insight Health has closed an $11 million Series A round led by Standard Capital (with backing from Pear VC, Kindred Ventures, Eudemian, ElevenLabs, and 43) to scale its voice-first clinical AI platform. The technology deploys patient facing agents that automate intake interviews, populate electronic health records, handle follow ups, and dramatically reduce the paperwork and manual tasks that drain clinician time and cost the U.S. healthcare system over $1 trillion each year
Glimpse:
Founded in 2023, Insight Health builds AI agents that manage both patient facing and backend clinical workflows. Its flagship assistant, Lumi, contacts patients via text or email ahead of visits, runs structured interviews, and feeds clean medical histories straight into EHR systems. The platform has already completed more than 3 million fully autonomous patient interactions. Clinics such as The Oregon Clinic, Pacific Sports & Spine, Coastal Health, and Santiam Hospital report combined annual administrative savings exceeding $50 million. The fresh capital will speed up product enhancements and expand integrations, including with the athenahealth Marketplace and Office Practicum.
Insight Health, a New Yorkbased clinical AI company established in 2023, today announced it has raised $11 million in Series A funding. The round was led by Standard Capital and included participation from Pear VC, Kindred Ventures, Eudemian, ElevenLabs, and 43. The investment comes as healthcare providers grapple with soaring administrative costs estimated at more than $1 trillion annually in the United States while physicians dedicate nearly one third of their working hours to non clinical duties, fueling burnout and limiting patient access.
The company’s platform deploys voice first and automated clinical AI agents to streamline both operational and clinical tasks. Its standout patient-facing tool, Lumi, proactively reaches out to individuals before appointments through text or email, conducts detailed AI-guided interviews, and automatically generates structured medical histories that integrate directly into electronic health record systems. Additional capabilities include post visit follow ups, ongoing symptom tracking, medication adherence support, and preventive care reminders.
Proceeds from the funding will accelerate further product development and strengthen collaborations with providers. The company has already broadened its reach through integrations with the athenahealth Marketplace and partnerships with pediatric EHR specialist Office Practicum.
Co-founder and CEO Jaimal Soni emphasized the timeliness of the solution: “2026 will be the year patient facing AI truly takes off. Healthcare organizations are stuck in the impossible position of meeting rising patient demand among budget constraints and mounting administrative burdens, which means patients will ultimately fall through the cracks. Something has to change, and the healthcare organizations that embrace the power of AI to alleviate these challenges will be the ones that thrive and better serve their patients.”
This announcement aligns consistently across the original Digital Health News coverage, the official Business Wire press release, MobiHealthNews, Fortune, and company statements no conflicting details were found in any verified reporting.
