Miami-based health-tech company Fourier Health, a clinician-in-the-loop artificial-intelligence platform that streamlines and consolidates patient clinical data into use-case specific summaries to reduce administrative burden, announced it has raised $8.4 million in seed funding, led by Yosemite, with participation from Innospark Ventures, NextGen Venture Partners, and Tau Ventures, and pre-seed funding from Lasagna, NextGen Venture Partners, Myelin, and Despierta.
Founded in late 2023 by experienced technologists James Lloyd and Christopher Lee, Fourier Health addresses the challenge of fragmented referral and data-harmonisation workflows by integrating with complex data sources, including PDFs, faxes, handwritten notes, and structured repositories, to produce concise, relevant, and context-specific summaries that convert unstructured data into actionable patient-clinician insights. Clients of the platform have reported meaningful improvements in patient onboarding, a more than 98% reduction in document-validation time, and 2–3 hours of administrative burden returned per patient.
With this new funding, Fourier Health intends to refine its R&D infrastructure further and build out its engineering, sales, and implementation teams. The company’s platform integrates with various electronic health record (EHR) systems and can process multi-source, multi-format documents, enabling stronger longitudinal and clinical summaries while significantly reducing administrative workload through automatic document labeling and processing.
KEY QUOTES:
“Unstructured data in clinical care needs to be reimagined. The inefficiencies that plague scattered patient data, especially when providers waste so much time synthesizing it into something useful, are solvable. We’re applying domain-specific artificial intelligence to tackle these pain points directly: providing last-mile LLM-enablement and specialty-specific customizations, truly allowing clinicians to do what they do best. We’re incredibly grateful for the support, especially from investors that deeply believe in our mission as we continue to serve healthcare professionals and patients better.”
Christopher Lee, Co-Founder and CEO, Fourier Health
“Recent advancements in AI and LLM technologies have unlocked a world of new possibilities, yet the secret to making these truly useful and safe for patients and providers is to seamlessly embed these technologies within the existing data streams and workflows in health systems. Our team brings the healthcare industry experience with the technical expertise to make this happen.”
James Lloyd, Co-Founder and CTO of Fourier Health
“We’re incredibly excited to be supporting Fourier Health in their vision to streamline patient onboarding and increase access to specialized care. Fourier is setting the standard for how AI can be applied in healthcare to reduce administrative burden and reduce time to treatment for the patients most in need of care.”
Matt Bettonville, Investor at Yosemite
