About Amigo

We build AI that puts people first. Instead of just making organizations more efficient, we ensure AI systems actually help humans thrive.

We focus on healthcare because getting things right matters most in this field. Our technology provides organizations with confidence that their AI is functioning correctly before deployment.

We operate globally and follow strict regulations. We've raised $6.5M from investors, including General Catalyst and GSV Ventures. Our team comes from diverse backgrounds—tech, psychology, economics, healthcare, and policy—all working together to create AI that organizations can trust and that genuinely benefits people.
