Corti, founded in 2014 in Copenhagen, is one of Europe's longest-running healthcare AI companies, with a mission to bring machine intelligence to clinical conversations. The company first gained attention for technology that analyzes emergency calls in real time, helping dispatchers detect signs of critical conditions like cardiac arrest faster than humans alone. That foundation in understanding spoken medical interactions has grown into a broader platform: a clinical co-pilot and a set of specialized healthcare foundation models designed to interpret patient encounters and support clinicians across the care journey.
Corti's positioning rests on a strong technical conviction — that general-purpose AI models are poorly suited to the safety, accuracy, and domain demands of medicine, and that healthcare requires purpose-built infrastructure trained on clinical data. The company offers foundation models tailored to healthcare alongside applications that span ambient documentation, real-time decision support, and quality and coding workflows. By owning the underlying models rather than wrapping someone else's, Corti aims to deliver higher accuracy and reliability in the high-stakes clinical settings it serves.
In 2023 Corti raised a $60M Series B co-led by Prosus Ventures and Atomico, with participation from existing investors Eurazeo, EIFO, and Chr. Augustinus Fabrikker, valuing the company at around $260M. The round was described as the largest capital infusion into a Danish health-tech company at the time and was intended to scale Corti's AI co-pilot to support overburdened healthcare staff globally and to deepen its work across both healthcare and public safety. The company has signaled longer-term ambitions including an eventual public listing, reflecting its scale and maturity relative to many newer entrants.
Corti's customers are health systems, clinics, and emergency services that need AI which can understand clinical conversations reliably and act on them. Its strategic advantage is its long track record, its real-time conversational AI heritage, and its commitment to specialized healthcare models as foundational infrastructure. In a market increasingly crowded with documentation tools built on general-purpose models, Corti's bet is that medicine-specific foundation models will prove more accurate, more trustworthy, and ultimately more defensible, positioning it as a foundational AI provider for clinicians rather than a single-feature application.
