NEW YORK — Insight Health has raised $11 million in a Series A funding round led by Standard Capital, as the company expands its AI-driven platform aimed at reducing administrative strain across the U.S. healthcare system.
The round also included participation from Pear VC, Kindred Ventures, Eudemian, ElevenLabs, and 43. The company said the funding will support product development and the expansion of partnerships with healthcare providers nationwide.
Insight Health is targeting what it describes as a growing administrative crisis in healthcare, where overhead costs exceed $1 trillion annually. Clinics face high staff turnover, with more than 50 percent of administrative workers and clinicians leaving within two years, while physicians spend roughly one-third of their time on administrative tasks.
“2026 will be the year patient-facing AI truly takes off,” said Jaimal Soni, co-founder and CEO of Insight Health. “Healthcare organizations are stuck in the impossible position of meeting rising patient demand among budget constraints and mounting administrative burdens, which means patients will ultimately fall through the cracks. Something has to change, and the healthcare organizations that embrace the power of AI to alleviate these challenges will be the ones that thrive and better serve their patients.”
The company’s platform uses voice-first clinical agents to handle both clinical and non-clinical workflows, including patient intake, referral processing, documentation, and triage. The system can engage patients via voice or text and includes an ambient scribe that captures electronic health record documentation in real time, allowing clinicians to focus more directly on patient care.
Insight Health said its technology is already being used by clinics such as The Oregon Clinic, Pacific Sports & Spine, Inland Neurosurgery, Coastal Health, and Santiam Hospital. Collectively, these organizations have reduced administrative workloads by hundreds of thousands of hours each month and lowered annual administrative costs by more than $50 million. The platform has also facilitated more than 3 million autonomous patient interactions.
“As a breast cancer surgeon, every minute with a newly diagnosed patient is precious, and there’s never enough of it,” said Dr. Tammy De La Melena, a breast surgical oncologist. “Before partnering with Insight Health, coordinating a single new patient required a team of specialists just to manage documents, authorizations, and intake. Now, Insight Health’s platform begins the patient encounter before they ever walk through my door, gathering the complex medical, reproductive, and family history I need to make informed decisions from the moment I sit down with them. The AI scribe technology handles documentation in real time, and post-procedure triage tools mean my staff isn’t drowning in callbacks. Insight Health doesn’t just improve workflows, it transforms how care is delivered at every single touchpoint.”
Standard Capital said its investment reflects confidence in the company’s approach to addressing inefficiencies in healthcare administration.
“Healthcare administration is inefficient, and it’s inevitable that AI will fix it,” said Dalton Caldwell, general partner at Standard Capital. “What drew us to Insight Health is the rare combination of both an urgent problem and a team with the clinical and technical depth to actually solve it. Jaimal, Saran, Eric, and Pankaj have built something that clinics are quickly adopting because it works. We are excited to lead Insight Health’s Series A and support their mission of improving the healthcare system in the United States.”
The company said demand for patient-facing AI tools is accelerating, with most U.S. hospitals now using AI to improve care and operational efficiency, and patient engagement with such technologies rising sharply in recent years.
