Heidi was established in 2021 by Dr. Tom Kelly and co-founder Waleed Mussa. In 2023, we secured our $10 million Series A funding round, led by Blackbird, a leading VC in Australia.

We envision that by 2050, every clinician will rely on AI systems to ease administrative tasks and enhance the quality and accessibility of care for patients worldwide.
Currently, we offer a suite of tools that transform how patients receive care and how clinicians provide it. Heidi Scribe, for instance, transcribes consultations, generating clinical notes, documents, and outlining next-step actions. These tools are gradually being integrated into a platform poised to redefine healthcare delivery.
