We are on a mission to make healthcare better.
With over 20 years of combined experience and telemedicine implementations into hundreds of organizations across the US—as well as first-hand clinical experience with many of the most popular platforms—we learned what did and did not work.
So, we decided to simplify everything.
We built a new software platform, from the ground up, that eliminated all third-party reliance and fees, is API-rich for quick and easy integration into existing workflows, and leverages low-cost hardware (even repurposed hardware like existing carts and tablets). Oh, and we’ve made sure our video is smart and the whole experience is touchless - requiring zero management from staff and full provider control over the visit.
