Prana is an AI primary care platform that replaces reactive annual physicals with continuous, proactive health monitoring. It aggregates medical records and wearable data to detect subtle health declines ('clinical drift') between visits, combining AI analysis with physician oversight and automating most administrative tasks so human doctors can focus on critical decisions. The platform offers 24/7 physician care at lower cost. The company is based in the San Francisco Bay Area and is part of Y Combinator's Winter 2026 batch.

- Is Prana a replacement for a human doctor?
- No. Prana pairs AI analysis with physician oversight, so human doctors remain involved in clinical decisions while AI handles continuous monitoring and administrative work.
- What data does Prana use?
- It aggregates medical records and data from wearable devices to build a continuous, longitudinal view of a person's health rather than relying on point-in-time visits.
- What is 'clinical drift'?
- It refers to subtle declines in health that develop gradually between visits. Prana's continuous monitoring is designed to detect these changes earlier than a once-a-year physical would.
- How does Prana keep costs lower?
- By automating most administrative tasks so physicians can focus on critical decisions, the platform aims to deliver 24/7 physician-backed care at a lower cost than traditional primary care.
