Silicon Valley startup Gamgee, a mobile health developer that seeks to improve patient engagement with voice-enabled technology, raised $4 million, according to a filing with the SEC.
The San Mateo-based company, founded in 2013 by CEO Robert Quinn, is betting it can provide more instruction for patients with the voice technology versus just an application. It’s 22otters app is delivered by way of text and voice calls, which deliver content from a cloud-based platform that is customizable for specific providers,
“Our platform and process suck in patient handouts and convert them into effective, spoken dialogues on mobile devices,” the company says on a description on AngelList. “We’re focused initially on procedure prep rather than the crowded down-stream use cases, and we are heavily invested in voice interaction.”
The startup is also backed by Khosla Ventures, and Vinod Khosla is listed on the From D filing as director for Gamgee.
Gamgee does not have a website and Khosla Ventures, which backs a number of well-known Silicon Valley startups, does not list Gamgee in its portfolio. That likely means the line of equity and debt offering were personal investments.
Last May, the company raised $2 million.
