About

Anima is a care enablement platform that uses AI to help clinical teams manage patient caseloads more efficiently — enabling practices, clinics, and healthcare systems to handle more patient inquiries with the same clinical staff by triaging, routing, and pre-processing patient messages, symptoms, and administrative requests before they reach clinicians. Founded as a Y Combinator W21 graduate, Anima raised $14.5 million total including a $12 million Series A in early 2024 led by Molten Ventures with Hummingbird, achieving a benchmark of resolving 85% of patient inquiries within one day.\n\nAnima's platform integrates with existing EHR systems and clinical workflows — when patients submit messages or requests, Anima's AI layer categorizes the urgency, extracts relevant clinical context from the patient record, and routes to the appropriate care team member with pre-populated response templates and suggested actions. Administrative inquiries (prescription refills, appointment requests, test result questions) are handled with AI-assisted responses that clinicians can review and approve rapidly rather than composing from scratch. This reduces the cognitive load of clinical inbox management that contributes to physician burnout.\n\nIn 2025, Anima competes in the clinical workflow automation and care management platform market with Klara (patient communication), Luma Health (care orchestration), Healthie, and AI-powered EHR tools from Epic and athenahealth for clinical team productivity and patient communication. The UK National Health Service (NHS) has been a key market for Anima, given the NHS's acute GP workload crisis and the need for digital tools that help manage the high volume of patient contacts with limited clinical capacity. The 2025 strategy focuses on expanding within NHS primary care networks, growing in US value-based care organizations where managing population health efficiently is financially incentivized, and deepening AI capabilities for clinical decision support.

About

Modal is a serverless cloud computing platform purpose-built for AI and machine learning workloads — providing on-demand GPU compute that scales instantly from zero with per-second billing, container management, distributed training support, and a Python-native developer experience that makes running ML workloads in the cloud feel as simple as running code locally. Founded in 2021 in New York City and backed by Redpoint Ventures and other investors, Modal has grown rapidly as AI development has accelerated demand for flexible, developer-friendly GPU infrastructure.\n\nModal's developer experience is its primary differentiator — engineers write Python functions decorated with @modal.function() and deploy them to the cloud with a single command, with Modal handling container building, GPU provisioning, auto-scaling, and execution. The platform supports training jobs that need distributed compute across multiple GPUs, model serving endpoints that scale to zero when unused (eliminating idle GPU costs), and batch inference jobs that process large datasets. The per-second billing model means developers pay only for actual compute time, not provisioned instances.\n\nIn 2025, Modal competes in the AI infrastructure market with Replicate, Beam, Banana, and major cloud providers' managed ML services (AWS SageMaker, Google Vertex AI, Azure ML) for serverless GPU compute. The market for AI-specific cloud infrastructure has grown dramatically as the number of ML engineers deploying models to production has expanded — traditional cloud providers require significant DevOps expertise to use GPU instances effectively, while Modal's Python-native approach reduces the barrier to entry. Modal has attracted a strong developer following among AI researchers and ML engineers building production AI applications. The 2025 strategy focuses on growing the developer community, adding enterprise features (dedicated GPU capacity, private networking, compliance), and expanding the hardware options available (H100 GPUs, custom accelerators).
