Hippocratic AI is a start-up company that focuses on building solutions for the healthcare industry using artificial intelligence (AI). It is based in Palo Alto, California, and was founded in 2022, although it came out of stealth in 2023. There are eight cofounders total that launched the company, including CEO Munjal Shah.
The company is developing a large language model (LLM) for healthcare purposes. The LLM is being developed using evidence-based healthcare content rather than unverified information found on the internet. According to the company's website, Hippocratic AI outperforms other LLMs on medical certification exams, indicating that it contains a similar knowledge base to that of a medical professional.
Throughout the development, Hippocratic AI is partnering with healthcare professionals throughout the field, including billing agents, nurses, therapists, social workers, and medical specialists, such as radiologists and cardiologists. These partnerships are for the purpose of reinforcement learning with human feedback to train and validate the LLM prior to its official launch. The company states it will only release the product once it has been confirmed safe and accurate by licensed medical professionals.
