Tivara, a Y Combinator-backed startup, has successfully raised $3.6 million in seed funding to introduce AI agents that streamline administrative tasks in healthcare, such as handling phone calls and scheduling appointments. Founded by Tej Seelamsetty and Aumesh Misra, Tivara aims to alleviate the burdens of traditional medical visits, which often involve frustrating waits for appointment bookings and insurance approvals. The company’s focus is on large specialty medical groups, with clients like the Los Angeles Cancer Network, seeking to reduce the time healthcare providers spend on non-clinical tasks. This funding round, backed by notable investors including Mischief VC and Day One Ventures, positions Tivara to expand its operational team and enhance its AI technology. By automating administrative processes, Tivara distinguishes itself from other AI-assisted patient messaging startups, allowing healthcare professionals to prioritize patient care over repetitive paperwork. With a vision rooted in improving efficiency in healthcare systems, Tivara’s innovation could significantly impact how medical practices operate, ultimately leading to better patient experiences and operational productivity.
