Nauti's Take
Heidi targets the part of medicine where AI already delivers clear value: documentation and admin work that eats hours of every doctor's day. The $900M valuation assumes the product scales across health systems with very different privacy rules, and that expansion is the biggest risk.
Clinics have an opportunity to test it, as long as liability for errors in AI-generated notes is settled first.
