WIREUNWIRED BRIEF

Healthleap has raised $38 million in seed and Series A funding to expand its hospital patient-screening platform. The startup secured an $8 million seed round co-led by Sequoia Capital and First Round Capital, alongside a $30 million Series A led by Hummingbird Ventures. Founded in South Africa in 2022 by siblings Jemima and Josiah Meyer, the company plugs into hospital electronic health record systems.

Its platform uses language models to extract notes from clinicians alongside structured data like lab results and vital signs. The software then calculates risk scores to flag patients who may suffer from conditions like malnutrition or delirium, though it does not provide official diagnoses. The platform currently operates in more than 50 hospitals, including Penn Medicine, Cedars-Sinai, and Emory Healthcare.

Healthleap sells three-year contracts priced by licensed bed count alongside an outcome-based pricing model. The startup plans to use the new capital to hire engineering, product, and sales staff while expanding its software to cover more than 40 major health conditions.
