Overview
Taxo.ai provides AI-powered automation for healthcare administration, serving providers and payers. Its Apex engine sits on top of existing large language models to extract data from EHRs and unstructured sources like PDFs and faxes, then automates workflows such as patient intake, benefits verification, prior authorizations, medical coding, claim submissions, and denials/appeals for providers, as well as claim intake, eligibility verification, adjudication, denial management, and analytics for payers. It differentiates itself with a model-agnostic meta-layer, HIPAA and SOC2 compliance, and explainable, auditable AI decisions that reference source documents, along with a claimed 98% pre-authorization rate. The company aims to greatly reduce administrative burden and processing costs in healthcare by speeding up claims handling and improving efficiency, with growth supported by seed funding from Y Combinator, General Catalyst, and Character.
