Tivara develops artificial-intelligence agents that answer patient phone calls, coordinate appointment scheduling, manage prescription refills, and generally remove administrative friction from medical visits. The company targets large specialty physician groups with 20 to 500 doctors, and early customers include the Los Angeles Cancer Network and Astera Customer Care. Unlike many clinical AI tools, Tivara intentionally focuses on back-office tasks, aiming to free clinicians from paperwork rather than influence medical decision-making. Co-founders Tej Seelamsetty and Aumesh Misra validated the problem by shadowing numerous doctors before building the product. Tivara is backed by Y Combinator and currently employs five full-time staff members. The recent seed financing gives the startup $3.6 million of capital, which it plans to use primarily for team expansion and product development. No revenue or user numbers were disclosed in the article.
