Company profile
researched Aug 2026Pluto Health operates a platform that combines clinical intelligence with care delivery. It organizes siloed medical histories, labs, medication data, insurance/claims information and social determinants of health data drawn from roughly 90% of US health systems, without relying on patient recall. AI-driven analysis is then applied across a person's history to surface risks, access barriers and care opportunities that would otherwise require manual chart review.
On the delivery side, the company coordinates and provides services directly to patients, including preventive health support, cancer screenings, vaccines, at-home labs and optional clinical trial pre-screening, with longitudinal follow-up. Event-driven monitoring detects new diagnoses, insurance changes and other triggers for intervention over time. The company describes this workflow with the framework "C.A.R.E. on Deck" (Connect, Assess, Resources, Empower) and positions the platform as a replacement for multiple point solutions by combining data aggregation, analytics and last-mile patient engagement. Capabilities cited include structured and unstructured data ingestion from EMR, labs, claims and SDOH sources; rules-based and AI-enhanced matching to clinical guidelines and research protocols; and application of multiple ontologies such as CPT, ICD and SNOMED. The company states it maintains SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001 and FDA 21 CFR Part 11 standards.
Founding story
Pluto Health was founded as a spin-out of Duke University and is headquartered in North Carolina.
Business model
Pluto Health sells its platform and clinical operations to organizations, offering deployment as a turnkey service, as a white-label product, or via API integration into existing customer workflows. It provides tools for patients, clinical staff and coordinators, and also supports non-digital ("analog") workflows for patients who do not use apps.
Revenue is generated from organizational customers — payers, providers, life science sponsors and community organizations — that deploy the platform and associated clinical operations as a turnkey service, white-label offering or API integration; specific pricing is not disclosed.
Traction
As of the announcement of its $19 million cumulative fundraising total, the company had about 40 employees with plans for further hiring in the Research Triangle. In November 2025 it announced expansion of its care model to Medicare, Medicaid and major commercial plans, and it has run a lung cancer screening initiative. Testimonials are attributed to a national retail partner's chief product officer, the CEO of a clinical site network, and a clinical network board member.
Latest developments
In November 2025 Pluto Health announced an expansion of its care model and partnerships with Medicare, Medicaid and major commercial insurance plans, a preoperative readiness solution to be deployed with Help.AI, and inclusion in TIME's 2025 World's Top HealthTech Companies list. Company leadership also published an op-ed in Fast Company on investment in women's health.
