Rivio

São Paulo, SP, Brazil

Overview

Founded in 2025, Brazil-based Rivio develops artificial-intelligence agents that operate across every stage of hospital billing to reduce claim denials, errors and revenue leakage. The company offers a unique performance-guarantee contract: if a hospital fails to recover 100 % of the amount owed by insurers, Rivio covers the shortfall itself, shifting operational and financial risk away from the provider. By tackling administrative waste that the National Association of Private Hospitals estimates at R$5.8 billion annually, Rivio aims to improve hospital cash flow and ultimately patient care. Management plans to use new capital to expand into additional medium and large hospitals, refine its data-driven risk and pricing models, and strengthen measurement tools that impact the broader healthcare system. Co-founders Ricardo Sales and Silvio Frison have long histories in social-impact initiatives, aligning the business with impact-investing mandates. The company positions itself at the intersection of operational efficiency, pragmatic AI deployment and economic value creation within Brazil’s healthcare sector.
