About

We're building the first voice-first agentic AI platform designed to revolutionize healthcare operations. Our autonomous, adaptable, and scalable AI agents empower providers, payors, and pharma to proactively manage patient care, drive engagement, and improve adherence and outcomes—leveraging AI that reasons, learns, and acts dynamically to complete real work, not just assist. With Althea, organizations can deploy a specialized AI workforce capable of handling complex, high-stakes tasks with precision, efficiency, and scale.

We envision a future where every patient has a dedicated team of AI-powered navigators, nurses, health coaches, and care managers—delivering truly personalized, proactive care at scale. Traditional staffing models make this impossible, which is why we built Althea.

Our mission is to bridge the healthcare workforce gap by deploying autonomous AI agents that handle critical yet time-consuming tasks—from administrative workflows to patient engagement—allowing providers to focus on delivering high-quality care. With growing workforce shortages and rising provider burnout, healthcare is at a breaking point. Patients are falling through the cracks, missing vital appointments, screenings, and follow-ups—leading to worse outcomes and higher costs.

Althea is here to change that.
