Launch YC: Decoda Health: the operating system for elective care

"The most powerful AI enabled platform for medical practices."

TL;DR:

Clinics that rely on point solutions and disconnected tools create missed opportunities, fragmented patient experiences, and endless admin work.

Decoda Health is the operating system for modern elective-care clinics. Their AI agents answer calls, take notes, keep calendars full, and handle patient follow-ups - all on top of a unified platform for scheduling, payments, memberships, prescriptions, labs, and analytics.

They are live in 150+ clinics, processing $100M+ annually, saving $7M in admin time, and generating $20M+ in new revenue for their customers. They have grown more than ten-fold in the last 6 months.

Problem

Every clinic has knowledge - how patients move through the workflow, which tasks matter most, what providers need, what's already been done, what's still pending.

But that knowledge lives in ten different tools and the minds of staff who come and go.

So every day feels like starting from scratch:

This isn't a workflow issue. It's a missing foundation.

Solution

First, the team built the full suite of modules every clinic needs: scheduling, intake & consent forms, unified communications, charting & documentation, inventory & checkout, patient messaging, and reporting & analytics.

Then they layered on intelligent agents that carry deep context and perform tasks like answering calls, taking notes, and keeping calendars full.

Because these agents and modules live inside the same platform, every workflow becomes connected and actionable.

The more a clinic uses Decoda, the smarter and more streamlined it becomes. This creates a compounding advantage: each clinic builds more longitudinal data, each agent becomes smarter with greater context, and each workflow grows increasingly deterministic.

Over time, the system becomes not just a tool, but a trusted co-pilot for running the clinic.

Why Now

AI gives tiny teams massive leverage. As a team of <10 people, they have already out-shipped incumbents with 500-person orgs. This moment, and their focus on clinic workflows, creates a rare window to build a category-defining platform.

Starting with elective care

More people want to live longer, happier, and healthier and are willing to spend on caring for themselves.

They are starting with a focus on wellness, longevity, anti-aging, medical aesthetics, dermatology, and cosmetic surgery practices.

This segment of care is growing fast and remains underserved by incumbent solutions.
