Our Story

How Cortico came to be

1

Origin Story

In 2019, a clinic drowning in 800 daily phone calls hired us to get patients online. It worked—calls dropped to near zero. When COVID hit, clinics everywhere wanted the same solution, so we formed Cortico to serve the market.

Today

Today, Cortico automates 3 million+ admin tasks per month for more than 6,000 healthcare professionals across North America. Hundreds of clinics using Cortico now run digitally by default, empowering patients to manage their care online first. Millions of tasks that once needed staff now happen automatically, resulting in a vastly more enjoyable patient and provider experience, with lower administrative burden and overheads.

Looking Ahead

Cortico's next focus extends to one of healthcare's most persistent challenges: longitudinal, multi-office patient records management. Through personal health records that move with the patient, we're working toward a future where information flows seamlessly between providers—reducing the duplication, delays, and systemic friction that affects both care teams and patient outcomes.

Why the name "Cortico"?

Cortico is derived from "cortex", meaning "outer layer". In short, we help clinic software and systems connect better with the outside world and be more interoperable.
