GYANT recognized for achievements in patient journey automation.

NEW YORK, December 8, 2021 — CB Insights today named GYANT to its third annual Digital Health 150, which showcases the 150 most promising private digital health companies in the world. This year’s Digital Health 150 was unveiled live during CB Insights’ annual Future of Health event.

The 2021 Digital Health 150 cohort has raised roughly $14.9B in aggregate funding across 522 deals since 2016, and includes startups at various investment stages of development, from early-stage to well-funded unicorns. Companies this year include startups working on data integration & analytics, hybrid virtual / in-person care, digital therapeutics, clinical intelligence, and more.

“This year’s Digital Health 150 is one of our most expansive yet, spotlighting 16 categories including virtual care, clinical trials tech, and workflow automation, as well as adding new categories such as home health tech and computer-aided imaging,” said Brian Lee, SVP of CB Insights’ Intelligence Unit. “Last year’s class has seen more than 20 exits, raised an additional $18.6B in aggregate funding, and announced over 250 partnerships since being recognized, and we’re excited to see the future success of this year’s winners.”

“The digital health landscape has been growing and evolving at a rapid pace,” said Stefan Behrens, Co-founder and CEO at GYANT. “We are proud to be named to the CB Insights Digital Health 150 for the second year in a row, especially considering all of the incredible, innovative companies in the category. GYANT has automated millions of patient journeys in 2021 and we are looking forward to expanding the reach and depth of our services in 2022.”

Through an evidence-based approach, the CB Insights research team selected the Digital Health 150 from a pool of over 11,000 companies, including applicants and nominees. They were chosen based on several factors, including data submitted by the companies, company business models and momentum in the market, and Mosaic scores, CB Insights’ proprietary algorithm that measures the overall health and growth potential of private companies.

GYANT creates care journey automation software for providers and payers. Patients or members engage with the software on a provider or payer’s website, and using conversational AI, GYANT will guide the user to the most appropriate tools or resources for their needs. GYANT has recently released two new products: IVR Redirect, which uses voice technology to help patients find what they need before they ever enter the call queue; and Pathways, which follows-up with patients post-discharge to monitor recovery.
