Hyro, a New York-based agentic AI company, has raised $45 million in funding led by Healthier Capital, bringing its total funding to $95 million. Founded in 2018 by CEO Israel Krush, Hyro is redefining how healthcare systems communicate by replacing outdated chatbots with intelligent, context-aware AI agents that understand real-world complexity.

Krush founded Hyro with the belief that healthcare deserves AI teammates as capable, reliable, and responsible as human caregivers. Hyro’s agents automate routine conversations, from booking appointments and refilling prescriptions to managing billing, while integrating seamlessly with hospital EHR, scheduling, and CRM systems.

Trusted by leading health systems including Intermountain Healthcare, Baptist Health, Bon Secours Mercy Health, Hackensack Meridian Health, and Sutter Health, Hyro automates up to 85% of patient interactions, reducing contact center costs by 35–45%. At Intermountain, the platform cut call abandonment by 88%, while Baptist Health saved nearly $1 million within months.

Competing with Nuance, Notable, and Amwell, Hyro stands out for its purpose-built healthcare workflows and production-grade interoperability, helping health systems accelerate safe, scalable, and conversational digital transformation.
