@AmitParikhMD, @kjalwyn, and I started @MeetKinHealth with a BIG vision in mind: to bring the personal health record that has eluded our system for decades into every American's pocket.
Listen in to hear the why behind Kin, more about what we're building, and how it bridges to this future. Kin's understanding layer today is the perfect bridge to our action layer later this year, and to a comprehensive PHR soon.
I both agree and disagree. A patient scribe in and of itself could be a challenging business to defend. A patient scribe that captures the hearts and minds of clinicians, patients, and caregivers, and builds an action layer on top of the understanding layer, is what our healthcare system has been missing for decades.
If early feedback, traction, and insights from our @MeetKinHealth users and recommending clinicians are a signal, 2026 is the year we see a step change in the way MANY Americans understand, engage with, and are empowered in their healthcare journeys.
Happy to find more time to discuss our vision, cc @AmitParikhMD@kjalwyn
Patients forget too much because healthcare explains too little.
Kin Health raised a $9M Seed round led by @Maveron, with @townhallvntrs and @flexcapital joining, as @DrParikhMBA, @AmitParikhMD, and Kyle Alwyn build an app that records medical visits, transcribes them, and translates clinical conversations into plain English.
The next patient experience winners will not make care more complicated. They will help people remember, understand, and follow through.

Let's move away from measuring success by the size of a funding round (/ post-money valuation / IPO market cap) and focus on the strength and quality of clinical outcomes (and ability to keep patients safe) instead 🚀 @AmitParikhMD
