Finni Health

Finni Health operates a two-sided platform in the autism care market. On the family side, it matches children with autism spectrum disorder to Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapists and mental health clinicians, with services delivered in-home or in-clinic and billed to insurance. Families complete an online intake survey, are matched to a therapist near them, and are contacted within 24 hours; the company states it accepts most insurance and is HIPAA compliant. Supported areas of work include motor skills, emotional regulation, learning challenges, daily living skills, self-care, school interactions, nonverbal communication and sensory sensitivities, with additional support for co-occurring conditions such as ADHD, anxiety and mood disorders. A parent-facing mobile app (iOS and Android) provides shared scheduling, progress reports, clinical document signing and insurance information upload.

On the provider side, Finni supplies the operational infrastructure for board-certified behavior analysts (BCBAs) and other clinicians to start and scale their own practices. Its offering covers insurance credentialing and in-network contracting, business entity setup, billing and payroll, hiring and HR, office leases, marketing, staff training, compliance and a dedicated growth advisor, plus guaranteed payouts every two weeks. Finni builds its own software in-house, including a practice-management/"Mission Control" operations layer, financial reporting dashboards, and an ABA data-collection and EHR product called Orbit.

The company was founded in 2022 and participated in Y Combinator's Winter 2023 batch, where its YC primary partner was Diana Hu. Its YC profile lists a team size of 40 and open roles across software engineering, payor strategy, strategy and operations, and chief of staff, based in San Francisco, Toronto and remote in the US and Canada.

Founding story

Founders Bucky Khan and Yilun Chen connected over a shared interest in improving healthcare access. Bucky spent more than a decade helping his mother provide in-home daycare to children with different abilities; after he shared that experience, Yilun proposed building a platform to automate providers' operations and billing. Within a couple of weeks they had partnered with their first provider, Monique.

Business model

Finni operates a provider-enablement platform alongside a family-facing matching service. Providers join the network and use Finni's insurance contracts, back-office services and software to run their own practices; care delivered by those practices is billed to insurance. Sources describe guaranteed biweekly payouts to providers and access to 11+ major insurers, but do not disclose the specific fee or revenue-share arrangement.

Care is paid for through insurance rather than direct family payment; Finni states it works with most insurance and backs providers with 11+ major insurers. At its Y Combinator launch, roughly seven months after starting, the company reported $30,000 in monthly revenue growing about 50% month over month. The precise mechanism by which Finni captures revenue from provider practices is not stated in the sources.

Traction

At its Y Combinator launch (Winter 2023 batch), Finni reported $30K in monthly revenue growing 50% per month seven months after launching, with providers in New Mexico, South Carolina, Georgia, Illinois and Virginia. Current site figures cite 1,000+ families/learners in 30-35+ states, 45+ open practices, 700+ providers, 350,000+ hours of therapy delivered and 11+ major insurance payers. A featured practice, Monique's in Las Cruces, New Mexico, is described as reaching $10M+ in revenue, 150+ active learners and 2+ locations. Company-reported outcome statistics include 90% of families reporting meaningful progress in six months and 80% of parents reporting lower stress; these are self-reported and unverified by the sources.

Latest developments

The company's current site advertises nationwide ABA and mental health care with 1,000+ families in 30+ states, 45 active practices, 700+ providers and 350,000+ delivered therapy hours, alongside its Orbit data-collection platform and caregiver mobile app. Its Y Combinator profile lists an active status, a 40-person team and open roles including Head of Payor Strategy and Chief of Staff.
