May 29, 2026

 

H1 announced it has received a $40 million investment in a funding round led by CVS Health Ventures, the venture capital arm of CVS Health focused on advancing healthcare innovation and digital transformation. The investment follows several successful collaborations between the two organizations, including the development of an AI model that significantly improved healthcare provider directory accuracy, helping patients connect with providers more efficiently.

Founded with the mission of connecting the world to the right doctor, H1 has built an AI-powered platform that helps pharmaceutical companies, health plans, health systems, and technology organizations identify and engage healthcare professionals for critical business and clinical workflows. The company’s customer base includes 85% of the top 20 pharmaceutical companies and 9 out of 10 leading health plans.

The investment comes as H1 continues to scale its business and expand the use of artificial intelligence across healthcare. The company said it is profitable and expects to operate above the Rule of 40 benchmark in 2026, a key measure of growth and profitability for software companies.

At the center of H1’s platform is its Doctor Graph, a structured representation of physician identity, expertise, relationships, and behavioral signals. The company combines this data asset with agentic AI workflows to support applications across drug development, medical and commercial engagement, care navigation, provider data management, and network intelligence.

CVS Health Ventures focuses on investments that improve healthcare accessibility, affordability, and simplicity, with particular emphasis on care delivery transformation, consumer-focused healthcare solutions, and emerging technologies. Through its investment platform, CVS Health Ventures provides portfolio companies with access to enterprise capabilities, healthcare expertise, and broad consumer reach.
