How YC Funded Company Kairo Health growing ?

Welcome to Unpod! In this episode of our series on Y Combinator-funded startups, we're diving into Kairo Health, a company revolutionizing healthcare with AI.

Founded in 2024 by Jake Goldman and Ajay Vasisht, Kairo Health is tackling a major issue in the healthcare industry— the shortage of nurses, care coordinators, and administrators. In the US, these essential support staff spend hours navigating outdated systems like EHRs (Electronic Health Records) and waiting on hold over phone calls. This leads to burnout and inefficiency, and hiring more staff is not always possible due to high costs.

Kairo Health's solution? They’ve developed AI agents that learn from the actions of support staff and automate their repetitive tasks. Whether it's calling patients to check on their symptoms, rescheduling appointments, or managing cancellations, these AI agents take care of it all, saving time and effort.

For example, imagine a patient cancels an appointment at the last minute. Instead of a staff member scrambling to fill that slot, Kairo's AI steps in, identifies other patients who can fill the spot, and books it automatically. This reduces wasted time and ensures better care for patients.

Jake and Ajay’s goal is simple: help healthcare organizations reduce costs and improve efficiency so doctors and staff can focus more on patient care.
