Bottom line

- Pick QGenda if you want scheduling and credentialing on one provider record across a health system, rather than a standalone credentialing point tool.
Axuall
Real-time practitioner data network for workforce decisions
- Founded
- 2018
- HQ
- Cleveland, OH
- Stage
- Series B
- Raised
- $40M+
What it does
- Clinician Wallet holds portable, reusable digital credentials
- Real-time practitioner data network for primary source verification
- Cuts onboarding, privileging, and enrollment timelines
- Workforce analytics for network planning and staffing
- AI document processing added to the Wallet in 2025
Where it's strong
- The clinician-owned credential wallet model means a provider verified once can be onboarded quickly anywhere on the network, which locums and multi-site systems feel immediately.
- Strategic backing and co-development with major systems (Cleveland Clinic, MetroHealth, Intermountain and University Hospitals ventures) shows real health system buy-in.
- HealthStream partnership distributes it through CredentialStream, with reported application processing time cut up to 70%.
What buyers should weigh
- The network model works best when your peers are also on it; value in regions with thin Axuall adoption is weaker.
- At about $40M raised it is the smallest company in this set, so weigh vendor durability.
- It complements rather than replaces credentialing software, so expect to keep your MSO/credentialing system of record.
