Have you ever been on hold for over 10 minutes when you called your doctor’s office? Parakeet Health is on a mission to improve the patient experience at your doctor’s office. We offer a natural, intelligent, and compliant AI voice answering service for patients and healthcare practices. We automate repetitive phone tasks like appointment scheduling, billing, and general inquiries to give the staff much needed time to take care of higher touch tasks and requests.

Who We Are

We are a team of seasoned healthcare industry veterans (One Medical IPO, Doximity IPO, Epocrates IPO) and technologists (Twitter, Microsoft, Rippling) who are committed to applying gen AI to enable more affordable, effective, and enjoyable care through technology. We have paying clients and a robust pipeline of clients that we plan to onboard this year.

We are venture backed by top-tier VCs including Canvas Ventures (investor in Doximity, Superhuman, Upwork), CoFound Partners, and StoryHouse Ventures. Our angels include the founder of One Medical/Galileo, former CTO of Twitter, and co-founder of Tend Dental.
