Abridge has quickly become the healthcare AI startup to watch. Rao founded Abridge in 2018 to automate medical notetaking with its large language models. Since then, it's landed dozens of hospital customers, including academic medical centers like Sutter Health and Yale New Haven Health, and a partnership with the electronic health records giant Epic.

And in August, the startup got its biggest customer yet, notching a deal to provide its tech to Kaiser Permanente's clinicians.
