Authenticx

Authenticx is a conversation intelligence software company serving enterprise healthcare organizations. Its platform ingests existing customer interaction data—recorded call center calls, texts, chats, emails and other digital interactions—and applies AI trained exclusively on healthcare data to structure and analyze those conversations. Outputs include dashboards, transcripts and summaries, audio montages, coaching material and automated workflows that escalate issues to operational and compliance teams.

The product is organized around three areas: business insights (journey-stage analysis, drivers of retention or abandonment, fulfillment barriers, social determinants of health, patient assistance program trends), quality and coaching (call drivers, resolution codes, workflow bottlenecks, case manager effectiveness, coaching dashboards), and safety and compliance (automated adverse event detection, Stars and CAHPS-related indicators, HIPAA and privacy alerts, adherence to call guides). Supporting capabilities include transcription and summarization, speaker identification, redaction of sensitive text and audio, and an AI research assistant called KBo. The company markets a proprietary "Eddy Effect" model that identifies points where patients or members get stuck in a journey due to broken processes, agent performance issues or product deficiencies.

Early versions of the system combined machine language processing with human analysts who added context to categorized words and phrases; customers could use Authenticx analysts or have their own staff trained to do the analysis. The company continues to pair automation with human review and in-house model monitoring, and states its platform is built to HIPAA, SOC, GDPR, CCPA and PCI DSS standards.

Founding story

Amy Brown founded the company in Carmel, Indiana after roughly 20 years working in healthcare and insurance, including roles managing customer service and government relations, service as executive director of the Indiana Medicaid Program, and as health policy director in Governor Joe Kernan's administration. Trained as a social worker, she observed that employers spent heavily on NPS and other solicited survey feedback while leaving hundreds of millions of recorded customer interactions unused. She took no salary in the first year, and she and a colleague invested a collective $40,000 to launch the firm; she used personal savings to hire a contract developer to build a low-code prototype, sold from that prototype, and recruited Michael Armstrong as chief technology officer after landing initial contracts. Reporting gives the founding date as August 2018 and the first customer contract as January 2019.

Business model

Authenticx sells its conversation intelligence platform to enterprise healthcare organizations, complemented by services such as client success support, insights checkpoints where Authenticx analysts interpret conversation data, and human-in-the-loop model review. It integrates with existing CCaaS, iPaaS and CRM systems via APIs rather than replacing them.

Enterprise software sold to healthcare and insurance organizations, with recurring revenue; the company expected more than $1 million in annual recurring revenue by the end of 2020 and cash flow positivity in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Traction

First customer contract in January 2019; seven sizable enterprise customers at the time of the pre-seed round with 11 full-time and 10 part-time staff; more than 10x growth since launch as of the June 2021 Series A; 400% revenue growth year over year and 20 million customer voices analyzed as of April 2022. Published customer outcomes include a 58% decrease in HCP calls at a pharmaceutical customer and reduction of up to 40% of non-qualified safety events.
