Evidently

EHR-embedded AI that turns scattered chart data into answers

Our take

Evidently is a clinical data intelligence platform embedded in the EHR through SMART on FHIR. It reads the full patient chart, including notes, external records, and scanned documents, then serves it back as concept-based summaries, an in-EHR chat (Ask Evidently), drafted notes, CDI review queues, HCC capture with care gap reconciliation, denial appeal support, and registry abstraction. Buyers span CMIOs and clinical leaders who want faster chart review and CDI, quality, and population health teams who want documentation and risk adjustment accuracy from the same layer.

Founded in 2020 in the Bay Area by Feng Niu and Jaeho Shin, Evidently raised a $15M Series A in December 2024 from investors including Khosla Ventures and DN Capital. Traction is unusually well documented for its stage: University of Iowa Health Care recorded a 31.7-point Net EHR Experience Score improvement measured by KLAS, Allina Health documented 6x ROI in value-based care, and UNC Health signed an enterprise deployment in May 2026 after a 12-week pilot. An Offcall 2025 report ranked it the number two most physician-requested AI tool. It is SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA compliant.

What it does

  • AI chart summarization inside the EHR
  • Ask Evidently chat pre-loaded with full chart
  • CDI review and denial appeal support
  • HCC capture and care gap reconciliation
  • Note drafting for admits and discharges
  • Registry abstraction and pre-op review

Where it's strong

  • One chart-intelligence layer serves clinicians, CDI teams, and value-based care, spreading cost across use cases.
  • Named academic and health system customers with third-party validation, including a 31.7-point Net EHR Experience Score gain at Iowa measured by KLAS.
  • Allina Health documented 6x ROI on the value-based care use case.

What buyers should weigh

  • Deep EHR embedding means IT involvement and a real pilot; UNC ran 12 weeks before enterprise rollout.
  • It surfaces documentation and HCC opportunities but does not autonomously code or bill.
  • At $15M raised it is a smaller vendor taking on well-funded CDI incumbents.

Latest

UNC Health selected Evidently for an enterprise deployment across Triangle-region hospitals and clinics in May 2026 after a 12-week, 100-user pilot.
