What I've Built

A look at Matic Inside, the clinical AI company I founded.

Matic Inside

Healthcare AI / Clinical Documentation

The Problem

Physicians spend 2+ hours per day on documentation, time that should go to patients. Existing solutions were clunky, inaccurate, or didn't fit into clinical workflows.

What We Built

Matic Inside is a suite of AI-powered tools for clinicians:

  • ScribeMatic: Listens to patient encounters and generates clinical notes in real-time. I wrote the initial AI code, designed the clinical workflow integration, raised capital, and built the engineering team.
  • CodeMatic: Handles medical coding and billing accurately with artificial intelligence, reducing errors and speeding up reimbursement.
  • SumMatic: Summarizes all patient information from the EHR, giving physicians a quick overview before walking into the room.

Results (company-reported, as of July 2026)

Thousands of clinicians using the platform
50%+ reduction in documentation time
Scaled from prototype to production

Key Lessons

  • Clinical workflow is everything. The best AI is worthless if it doesn't fit into how physicians actually work.
  • Accuracy isn't enough. You need trust, explainability, and easy correction when the AI gets it wrong.
  • Start with a real problem. We built for a pain point clinicians actually have, not a technology looking for a use case.

How I Can Help

Different ways we might work together, depending on what you're building.

Why I Build

The case for technology in medicine.

"The medical system is broken and technology will fix it."

The United States spends 18% of its GDP on healthcare, roughly $5.3 trillion per year, or about $15,000 per person. That's nearly double what other wealthy countries spend. Germany spends 12%. France spends 12%. Japan spends 11%. Switzerland, the second-highest spender, still comes in at $5,000 less per person than we do.

And what do we get for it? Worse outcomes. US life expectancy is 78 years compared to 81+ in peer countries. Our maternal mortality rate is several times higher than most of Europe. We have higher rates of preventable deaths, unmanaged chronic disease, and medical errors.

Yes, the US produces an outsized share of medical research and new drugs, and that matters. But people cannot afford healthcare. The average emergency room visit costs $2,700. A significant portion of Americans delay or skip care because of cost. The entire system is precarious, built on layers of bureaucracy, regulations stacked on regulations, billing codes, prior authorizations, and administrative overhead that serves no one.

This system will eventually collapse under its own weight unless technology can make it more efficient. And it can. AI can eliminate hours of documentation. Automation can cut through administrative waste. Better data systems can catch errors before they happen. My focus is on building, using, and pioneering that technology.
