OpenAI chief operating officer and manager of the OpenAI Startup Fund Brad Lightcap said: “Healthcare is one of AI’s most promising opportunities to create an outsized positive impact on the world. Ambience Healthcare has built an incredible team to focus on providing a complete ecosystem of products that seamlessly fit into the workflow of practitioners, pushing both AI and medicine forward.”

It also includes the upcoming ‘AutoPrep’, which will offer intelligent pre-charting for clinicians.
