We have the only system that can have safe, autonomous, clinical conversations with patients. We have trained our own LLMs as part of our Polaris constellation, resulting in a system with over 99.9% accuracy. Hippocratic AI is rapidly expanding across the pharma and medtech industries. We are building a new class of agentic AI that supports patients and healthcare stakeholders across the entire life sciences value chain including patient services, clinical trials, access, adherence, and HCP-facing workflows. We are contracted with 5 of the top 20 pharma globally and are in a hyper growth phase for our Life Sciences vertical. Backed by the world’s leading Life Science and AI investors.
