**The product.** A software platform that checks clinical charts, insurance claims and prior authorization requests in a hospital or treatment center before they go to the payer. It finds documentation gaps and coding errors and drafts the fixes. Where the electronic health record (EHR) has no interface for programs, a software agent reads the screen, as a human reviewer would. The company also sells audits and, in its enterprise tier, managed billing.

**Why it worked.** It started in one small field, substance use disorder and behavioral health treatment, where the billing and documentation rules are strict. The company says one of its two named customers went live within two months. The founders say they had built and sold companies before.

Evidence grades: A = disclosed by a public company, a filing or a payment processor, or verified by one; B = two or more independent reports agree, or a journalist confirmed it; C = a founder claim that no one else verified; D = reported, not verified: one founder claim or a third-party estimate with no second source; E = no revenue figure found, so the headline is a non-money fact and the other facts carry their own grades; calc = computed on this page from graded facts.

## Summary

Adentris is an AI platform for revenue integrity. That means making sure that delivered care is documented and coded well enough to be paid. It reads charts and claims in the provider's EHR (electronic health record, the clinic's patient-record system). It flags missing notes, wrong billing codes and gaps in prior authorization (the payer's approval before treatment). The company says it started in behavioral health and substance use disorder treatment.

The company's about page says it was founded in 2025. Y Combinator lists Adentris in its Spring 2025 batch. The press release of 18 September 2025 says the company was called WorkDone Health before that date. Three co-founders are named: Dmitry Karpov (chief executive), Sergey Yudovskiy (chief product officer) and Alex Odin (chief technology officer). The company said in its blog that it closed a US$1.8 million pre-seed round that took place in April 2025.

The only money figure is a founder statement. In their Y Combinator launch post of 8 May 2025 the three co-founders wrote: "Since the beginning of YC, we've reached $54k ARR". The post does not say how many customers paid or whether the pilots it mentions were paid. No payment processor, buyer or journalist has confirmed the figure, so the grade is D.

## Why did Adentris work?

### It began in one field where the company says rules are strictest

The company's about page says it started in behavioral health and substance use disorder treatment. It gives the reason in these words: "where the rules are strictest and the margins are thinnest". The page also says that if the platform works there, it works anywhere. The founders' launch post says that documentation errors lead to denied claims, failed audits and fines.

### A software agent reads the screen when the record system has no interface

The home page says the company's AI Web Agent reads the EHR "by logging in, navigating, and looking". Where a system has an API or HL7 feeds, the page says the platform uses those too. The company presents this as the reason a deployment takes weeks and needs no integration project. This is the company's own claim, and no outside party tested it.

### It offers a pilot on the customer's own charts before a contract

The pricing page says that a rapid audit pilot runs on the customer's own charts and claims before any commitment. The Y Combinator launch post reports pilots with hospitals and clinics. The company's blog says its first clients came in 2025, mainly in drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

### It adds services and managed billing next to the software

The terms of use describe managed billing services, where the company performs billing operations for a customer on the platform. The services page lists three engagements. The Y Combinator page says the company runs billing as a service for providers without their own billing teams. The sources do not say how much revenue comes from services.

## How it was built

These details come from the company's own pages, press releases and blog. They are grade C. No outside engineer has reviewed them.

- Five modules on one platform: documentation compliance, coding quality checks, prior authorization, appeals and denials, and discharge summaries. The home page lists them.
- An AI Web Agent that reads the EHR through its user interface. Where the EHR offers an API, FHIR or HL7 feeds, the company says it uses them as well.
- Inference runs on Microsoft Azure under a signed business associate agreement. The home page says that no patient data goes to external language model APIs.
- Customers pay through a contract with an annual term. The pricing page says "monthly payment available". The archived Starter plan was billed through Stripe.
- The website names Epic, athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Kipu Health, Alleva, Ritten, Ease Health and PIMSY as systems it connects to.

## Who tried this before Adentris, and why did they fail?

Three companies in our database of failed startups tried to automate healthcare administration or to sell AI to health providers. The values below come from that database, which labels its entries as AI-assisted summaries that are not verified, and its pages do not name founders.

The failed startups come from our database of dead startups, retold here in our own words; Its entries are AI-assisted summaries of public sources, so they carry no evidence grade.

### Olive AI (2012 to 2023; funding US$852M cash burned; cause: Overpromised automation)

- Promise: Software bots that automate hospital tasks such as prior authorization, claims denials and eligibility checks.
- Why it died: The database says each hospital needed custom integrations, the bots broke when hospitals changed systems, and the cost to serve was above revenue.
- Record: 

### CareLedger (2015 to 2018; funding US$4.5M cash burned; cause: Scale and EHR integration)

- Promise: A platform that tracked and managed patient billing and insurance claims for providers.
- Why it died: The database says it could not reach scale or connect to the large EHR systems fast enough against bigger competitors.
- Record: 

### Babylon Health (2013 to 2023; funding US$1.2B cash burned; cause: Overpromised AI and costs)

- Promise: AI symptom checking and virtual doctor visits on a smartphone.
- Why it died: The database says the AI claims were not validated. Doctor costs grew with use while fees were fixed. Expansion in many countries added regulatory burden.
- Record: 

## What changed

The closest predecessor is Olive AI. The the failed-startup database entry for it says that its bots needed a custom integration for each hospital and broke when systems changed. Adentris says it reads the EHR screen with an AI agent and needs no integration project. That claim addresses the failure the database describes, but no independent party has tested it.

Adentris also sells narrower work than Olive AI did. Its sources describe one field, behavioral health, and five modules for charts, claims and prior authorization. Olive AI, as the database summarizes it, tried many use cases at once. CareLedger and Babylon Health show the other risks in the same market: slow EHR access and costs that grow with volume.

## Can one person copy Adentris now?

**Verdict: Possible for a team with healthcare and enterprise sales experience, not for a solo founder.**

The sources show a small team that picked one regulated niche, named two customers and offered a pilot before a contract. The same sources do not show that anyone pays at scale. A reader who copies the structure should expect long sales cycles, security reviews and business associate agreements before the first paying customer.

1. Pick one field with strict documentation rules and a clear cost for each error, as the company did with behavioral health.
2. Offer a pilot on the customer's own data, so the finding is the sales pitch.
3. Prepare the security paperwork early: a business associate agreement, a SOC 2 report and a data-residency statement.
4. Keep a small self-serve plan beside enterprise contracts, as the archived pricing page did, if the market has small clinics.

**What is still open.** Other narrow back-office fields with strict rules, for example claims for one specialty, or audits for one regulator.

## Pricing

Adentris prices as the Internet Archive copy of the pricing page of 8 June 2026 shows them (grade C). The live page of 12 November 2026 lists no prices

| Plan | Per month, billed yearly (US$) | Per month, billed monthly (US$) | Limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | 0 | 0 | 5 charts, 5 claims, 5 benefit checks, 5 prior auths per category; document upload only |
| Starter |  | 100 | 25 of each per month; document upload; no EHR link |
| Enterprise | custom annual |  | Unlimited volume; EHR link; custom rules |

The archived page lists three plans: Free, Starter and Enterprise. Starter is paid by card through Stripe with no contract. Enterprise is a custom annual fee tied to provider count, modules and deployment. The live page says: "Annual agreement, monthly payment available. Priced on provider count and chart or claim volume." That page lists no amounts. The terms of use also mention managed billing services fees, which are invoiced monthly.

## When did Adentris launch, and how did it grow? Timeline

From a start in 2025 to named customers and a reseller partnership in 2026. Each entry carries its grade, and the revenue figure appears once.

- **2025** (grade C [3, 2, 9]): The company says it was founded. Y Combinator lists it in the Spring 2025 batch. The earlier name was WorkDone Health.

## What could go wrong for Adentris?

- **What is not verified.** The revenue figure rests on one founder statement dated 8 May 2025. The three co-founders wrote it in their Y Combinator launch post, and a Y Combinator bio gives a similar undated figure. The word ARR is not defined, and the post does not say whether its pilots paid. No payment-processor profile, buyer or journalist confirms revenue or paying customers. The Sobrius Health release was written by the company. A reader could look for a payment-processor profile, a funding database entry or a second interview.
- **Services and managed billing.** The company sells services as well as software. The services page lists audits and monitoring "delivered by the Adentris team", and the enterprise tier offers managed billing where the company runs the operation. The Y Combinator page says the same about billing as a service. No source states how much revenue comes from software and how much from services.
- **Logo walls, counters, badges and testimonials.** The home page shows a customer logo wall of seven names and a second wall of partners and programs. Two customers have case studies; the others have no page that says what they use or pay. A wall of nine media logos has a link to one article only. Two counters show 0 without scripts. The SOC 2 and HIPAA badges have no public report. Two named testimonials appear, and one of them also appears in the company's own press release.
- **Pricing page changed.** The pricing page of 8 June 2026 listed a free plan and a card-paid plan. The live page of 12 November 2026 lists no amounts and says the work is scoped to the organization. Two company pages also differ. The website attributes the 73% to 96% accuracy change to Resilient Recovery, and the blog attributes it to Sobrius Health. The blog post is dated 12 September 2025 but describes the Sobrius deployment, which the company announced on 20 May 2026.
- **Regulated use of AI with patient data.** The product handles protected health information and suggests billing codes. Its AI Web Agent logs in to record systems and, according to the company, payer portals. The company says inference runs on Azure under a business associate agreement. The Y Combinator launch post says the product monitors clinical staff activity logs. The pricing page lists a dashboard "with per-location and per-clinician view". This research did not test any of these statements.
- **Earlier name and company start.** The company was called WorkDone Health until 18 September 2025. The Y Combinator launch post is dated 8 May 2025 and was last updated in November 2026. It uses the name Adentris, but its contact address is at wrkdn.com and its calendar link ends in workdone-demo. The earlier domain refused automated access, so no date for the start of WorkDone Health was found. The about page and Y Combinator both say 2025. The founders' earlier companies are separate businesses.
