My mom passed away from breast cancer when I was 14 years old. What I remember most is how much work it was just to be sick. Referrals were made and forgotten, every new doctor meant starting over, and my family was left to fill in the gaps because the healthcare system never carried that weight for us.
I started Amigo because there are too many stories like mine.
We build, train, and deploy AI agents that can safely deliver care across clinical use cases such as intake and triage, chronic care management, and 24/7 virtual care.
AI is transforming every industry it touches, but healthcare has a higher bar. There's no room for errors or hallucinations, and definitely no second chances with patient lives. That's the problem no one in this space has solved.
We asked ourselves “how do you make AI safe enough to deliver care?” The answer was obvious: clinical agents need to be trained the same way we train doctors.
So we pioneered the industry's first Digital Residency program, training every AI agent against millions of simulated patient cases until they reach a 100% safety pass rate.
And it’s working.
In just the last six months, Amigo agents have completed over 3 million patient encounters around the world with zero safety incidents.
I'm proud to announce that Amigo has raised $17M to make healthcare work for everyone, including our $11M Series A led by Madrona with participation from Optum Ventures, General Catalyst, and GSV Ventures.
We have a real chance to build something better together. For healthcare organizations thinking about how AI can safely expand the reach of their care teams, I'd love to talk.
