Florida-based health technology startup hellocare.ai has recently raised $47 million in a highly oversubscribed growth round aimed at expanding its AI-powered virtual care platform. This platform is designed to modernize the way hospitals deliver patient care. The funding round was led by HealthQuest Capital and included participation from investors in digital health and large health systems, such as UCHealth, Bon Secours Mercy Health, OSF Ventures, and LRVHealth.
The company’s platform is currently in use across over 70 health systems and enables hospitals to create smart, tech-enabled care environments. It offers features like AI-assisted virtual nursing, virtual rounding and discharges, remote patient monitoring, digital whiteboards, ambient documentation, and hospital-at-home services, all from a single, fully integrated solution.
With this investment, we’re scaling rapidly and going deeper into AI innovation to tackle the healthcare industry’s most pressing operational issues.Labinot Bytyqi, Founder and CEO, hellocare.ai
Labinot Bytyqi, founder and CEO of hellocare.ai, emphasized that the funding validates the company’s mission to streamline healthcare delivery through technology. “We’ve built a unified platform that health systems are increasingly relying on to simplify workflows, reduce clinician burnout, and elevate patient engagement,” he said. “With this investment, we’re scaling rapidly and going deeper into AI innovation to tackle the healthcare industry’s most pressing operational issues.”
One of the platform’s unique strengths is its fully in-house technology stack, integrating software, hardware, AI, and seamless electronic health record (EHR) connectivity. This comprehensive setup allows hospitals to customize their virtual care models while supporting high-quality, patient-centric experiences across a variety of settings.
Leading health systems are already expanding their use of the platform. AdventHealth, for example, is launching hellocare.ai in over 50 facilities, covering over 13,000 rooms. Bon Secours Mercy Health and UCHealth, both investors in the company, are also active users of the technology—highlighting its real-world impact and strategic value.
At events like HIMSS25’s Smart Health Transformation Forum in Las Vegas, where hellocare.ai was a co-sponsor, leaders have pointed to virtual care and AI integration as key pillars for the next generation of healthcare infrastructure. Discussions highlighted hands-on tactics for implementing smart technologies and preventing typical missteps in digital implementation
Randy Scott, a Partner at HealthQuest Capital, expressed the enthusiasm regarding the coming of hellocare.ai. "They've created a platform that works at scale, and also one that brings measurable results where they count most, patient outcomes and operational efficiency," he said.
