HealthTech AI Startups to Follow in 2024

The Influence of AI in HealthTech

Venture capital investment in healthtech startups, leveraging AI and data-driven technologies to improve outcomes and lower costs, continue to rise. Here are five healthtech AI startups transforming healthcare for medical providers and patients. 

Imagene

Imagene is an innovator in AI-based precision oncology, leveraging AI to profile a broad range of cancer biomarkers from digitized biopsy images within minutes. The company empowers physicians with immediate oncology intelligence to facilitate optimal treatment for more cancer patients. Imagene is the developer of LungOITM, the first AI-based NSCLC Biomarker Profiling Assay. 

Theator

Theator uses advanced AI and computer vision technology to generate actionable insights which improve the quality of surgical care. By making routine video capture and analysis the standard of care in surgery, Surgical Intelligence derives never-before-seen-insights to help surgeons and hospital systems understand the causes of variability in patient outcomes and reduce it in the future, while also lowering costs and streamlining procedures in the OR. Theator is partnering with leading surgeons, hospitals, professional societies, and research institutions to create a smarter, more transparent operating room. 

Angle Health

Angle Health democratizes access to modern healthcare by unifying today’s fragmented healthcare benefits system into one core coverage and delivery platform. As a full-stack healthcare benefits  provider, Angle Health drives efficiencies across the value chain through its digital-first platform— from instant underwriting for brokers and streamlined administration for employers to personalized care navigation for members. With access to a national network of healthcare providers and facilities, Angle Health is the health benefits provider for modern employers, now servicing tens of thousands of employees and members across the country.

Segmed

Segmed collaborates with life sciences, healthcare, and technology firms to streamline access to medical imaging studies for advancing biopharmaceutical R&D, AI development, and enhancing global healthcare initiatives. Segmed acquires, de-identifies, standardizes, and subsequently provides medical imaging data to researchers and innovators in AI/ML and Real-World Imaging Data (RWiD) through its proprietary data platform. Before Segmed, acquiring imaging data for medical research was a time-consuming process that could take months or even years. By partnering with thousands of healthcare locations and imaging clinics across five continents, life sciences researchers and AI developers can access the studies they need.

Ferrum Health

Ferrum develops an AI operations platform enabling easier AI deployment for clinics and hospitals, resulting in earlier diagnosis and treatment. Medical errors are one of the top three causes of death in the U.S. Doctors and hospital administrators struggle to adopt new technology, and patients can suffer from accidental misdiagnosis and missed diagnoses. This can cost patient lives and cause massive liabilities for doctors, hospitals, and insurers.

Ferrum Health offers a fully managed, privately hosted deployment to help hospitals use AI technology to prevent costly medical errors, identify opportunities to drive efficiencies, and reduce costs without disrupting the traditional workflow of medical staff.
