"Top backers from firms like Kleiner Perkins, Andreessen Horowitz, and Oak HC/FT were asked to make two picks each: one healthcare startup from their portfolio, and one they have no financial interest in."
"Nearly every startup nominated is utilizing AI in their products, from automating hospital back-end tasks to assisting patients with questions about their payments. Healthcare AI startups have dominated digital health VC funding so far this year, capturing nearly $4 billion of the $6.4 billion raised across the industry in the first half of 2025, according to Rock Health. Here's the full list of the most promising healthcare startups of 2025, according to investors."
Ten investors from venture capital firms, private equity shops, and family offices each identified two promising healthcare startups for 2025: one from their portfolio and one without financial ties. Nearly every nominated startup integrates AI to automate hospital back-end tasks, streamline payments, and assist patients, targeting administrative burdens, workforce shortages, and high medical costs. Healthcare AI firms captured roughly $4 billion of the $6.4 billion raised in digital health during the first half of 2025. Example companies include Nudge, which uses ultrasound imaging and stimulation to target neurological conditions and raised $100 million in Series A funding.
