Summary

Bunkerhill raised $55M from prominent investors to build AI agents for healthcare, citing life-saving outcomes and major efficiency gains in pilot health systems.

Today, I am excited to share that @joinBunkerhill has raised $55 million from @vkhosla at @khoslaventures, @Alfred_Lin from @sequoia, @ycombinator, and other amazing investors. Over the past year, we have partnered with more than a dozen health systems and grown revenue 20x. Today, I’m also excited to formally share what we’ve been building. Our mission is to make it radically easy for health systems to turn their ideas into reality through AI agents—improving patient outcomes, bending the cost curve, and making healthcare operations dramatically more efficient. @utmbhealth is running 20+ AI agents - live - across the enterprise on Bunkerhill. One of those agents - in its first month - flagged a patient at imminent risk of heart attack, leading to a life-saving open heart surgery. Another one, a nephrology triage agent, cut wait times for appointments by >50%. Yet another one, a lung nodule agent, addressed urgent cases 80% faster and doubled guideline-concordant follow-ups. That is what Dr. Peter McCaffrey calls Bunkerhill: “a shared brain” for the health system. That’s the promise of AI finally being realized in healthcare. Making it possible requires two things: (1) a shared layer of intelligence for the entire health system, and (2) an operating model to enable rapid development of AI agents for the problems they understand best. Together, these dramatically reduce the cost and time required to turn an idea into a working solution. As that cost approaches zero, the limiting factor is no longer technology. It is imagination—and the conviction to act. The health systems we work with have both. Our job is to make sure nothing else stands in their way.
