We’re proud to be featured by Andreessen Horowitz among the top companies building Healthcare AI voice solutions. AI makes it possible to dramatically increase the standard of patient service by front desk teams through voice scheduling, AI virtual front desk assistants, automated appointment confirmation calls, and more. And we're putting in the work every day to bring this new standard to medical practices around the world!
New Andreessen Horowitz thesis - an update on AI voice agents! 2024 was a huge year for voice agents, with massive model breakthroughs + hundreds of new startups. How has the space evolved, and where do we see opportunity in 2025? To start: we see voice as one of AI's biggest unlocks. In the last six months, we've seen massive steps forward on the model side. Latency and reliability are now largely solved - and interruptibility and emotionality have made major strides, too. Voice AI is now nearly at human standards, allowing tech to replace labor on the phone. As a result, there's been an explosion in startups building applications on these models. Y Combinator alone has seen 90 voice agent cos. Many are targeting specific verticals - by industry (e.g. home services, dental) or function (e.g. recruiting, customer support) - and are scaling fast! In most cases, we see voice is a wedge - not the product. Most companies need to tap into adjacent workflows: pushing call details to a CRM, automating follow-ups, etc. What we're looking for in voice agent startups: - Building in an industry where phone is the preferred or required medium, or has a much higher success rate than other modalities - Calls are constrained — both in length and in format/outcome - Voice agent delivers 50%+ cost reduction with similar success rate as a human - Calls are "life or death" for the customer —they will pay significant $ to get them made or answered...but not for the end consumer - When selling into SMB/mid-market, the agent product has easy integration. When selling into enterprise, complex integration can be a moat! If you're building here, reach out! 👋 We are very actively investing in this space.
