Preveta

Preveta develops an AI-enabled care navigation and coordination platform for oncology and specialty care practices. The software ingests data from electronic health record and practice management systems, layers on the clinical protocols and treatment pathways used by a practice, and surfaces a longitudinal view of every patient across the care journey — identifying who is progressing, who is overdue for an intervention, who is eligible for second- and third-line therapies, and who currently qualifies for a clinical trial. Alongside this dashboard, which the company markets as an "AI command center," Preveta deploys AI agents intended to act on identified care gaps and reduce manual follow-up by clinical staff.

The company's stated mission is to give healthcare providers data-driven insights that eliminate care coordination breakdowns so patients can access the support needed to navigate the healthcare system. At the time of its 2021 seed announcement, Preveta focused on urology, chronic disease and cancer — particularly prostate and bladder cancers — and described plans to expand into additional areas such as gastrointestinal care. The platform launched in early 2020.

Founding story

Preveta was founded in 2018 by Victor Lee, his wife Shirley Lee, and Steven Hu. Victor Lee has said the idea followed his experience helping a friend navigate Stage 4 ovarian cancer, where reaching the right doctor and specialist referrals took three months, motivating a platform focused on earlier detection and intervention.

Business model

Preveta sells software to healthcare provider organizations — oncology, urology and other specialty practices — that integrates with their EHR and practice management systems. Marketing materials position the product as increasing the number of patients kept in treatment and increasing practice revenue.

Software sold to clinical practices; a third-party profile classifies the company's revenue as recurring software revenue.

Traction

As of the April 2021 seed announcement, the platform served about 2,000 patients across six major medical groups. The company names partner practices including Anne Arundel Urology and Rio Grande Urology, and lists EHR integrations.

Latest developments

The company currently markets an AI command center for oncology and specialty care that combines a real-time patient view with AI agents for closing care gaps, and describes itself as building an AI clinical workforce for these specialties.
