At Clarion, we're rebuilding how healthcare communicates in the age of AI. Today, clinics miss 30-40% of patient calls while staff drowns in administrative tasks. We believe AI agents should handle these workflows—scheduling, billing, prescription refills—so healthcare teams can focus on actual patient care.
We're building the communication infrastructure that modern healthcare desperately needs. Our AI agents don't just answer calls; they complete entire workflows end-to-end, giving providers back their time and ensuring patients never go unheard. We've already handled hundreds of thousands of patient interactions across virtual care companies, health systems, and a $5B health insurance company.
Founded by a Stanford/Harvard-trained physician who was on the founding team of Two Chairs and Ophelia, and an ex-Amazon Alexa engineer who led AI/ML teams at Salesforce, we uniquely understand both the clinical and technical challenges of transforming healthcare communication.
We've raised $5.4M from Accel, Y Combinator, Sequoia (scout), and healthcare founders from Ophelia, Medallion, and Counsel Health. We're an in-person team based in New York, moving fast to ensure no patient call goes unanswered.

What We Do
At Clarion, we’re building the AI communication layer for healthcare, enabling every clinic to streamline operations and making it effortless for patients to access and receive care. We do this by building voice AI agents that answer every patient call 24/7, handling scheduling, refills, and billing questions with natural conversations. Practices that work with us see a 71% reduction in admin staff costs, 59% decrease in avg hold time for incoming calls, and 50% reduction in no-shows and cancellations.
We've raised $5.5M from top tier investors, handled millions of patient interactions, and have customers across virtual care companies, health systems, and a $5B health insurer.
