Hippocratic AI has launched its Healthcare AI Agent App Store, a platform designed to enable clinicians to create artificial intelligence agents that enhance patient care and operational efficiency. According to CEO Munjal Shah, the initiative reflects the company’s commitment to collaborating with healthcare professionals, transitioning from working primarily with health systems and payors to directly engaging licensed U.S. clinicians. Clinicians can design AI agents in under 30 minutes, with each agent undergoing a rigorous three-step safety process, including licensure verification, internal testing, and validation by a network of over 6,000 nurses and 300 doctors. Creators share revenue generated by their agents, earning 5% of base fees and 70% of any premium rates they set.
This launch comes amid significant growth in AI applications within the healthcare industry, where investments in AI-powered tools for medical note-taking and patient interaction surged to $800 million in 2024, more than doubling the previous year’s figures. Companies, including tech giants like Microsoft, have introduced solutions aimed at automating paperwork, improving data integration, and optimizing patient outcomes. These innovations, ranging from AI-driven chatbots to advanced data algorithms, promise to alleviate administrative burdens on healthcare workers, allowing them to dedicate more time to patient care. Hippocratic AI’s app store positions itself as a key player in this expanding $26 billion AI healthcare market.
