The healthcare AI vendors we track
24 vendors across 8 categories, 24 of them with a page of their own. Each page says what the tool costs, whether the vendor documents signing a business associate agreement, how deeply it connects to the major EHRs, and the cases where it is the wrong purchase. We have never taken a commission, a referral fee or a paid placement from any of them, which is the only reason the last part is on the page at all.

Make it a formal evaluation
Everything we publish is free to read and free to argue with. When the decision has to be signed, dated and defended to a board, we run the evaluation against your own estate. We take no vendor commissions.
- A 30 minute evaluation call with an analyst, no pitch deck.
- A read on the vendors and the rules in play, and the use cases we would not touch yet.
- A written proposal with scope, sequence and a fixed fee.
- No obligation
- Direct with an analyst, not a sales rep
- BAA available before any PHI discussion
