REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Suki, the leader in artificial intelligence (AI) technology for healthcare, announced it has been selected as a Preferred Solution Partner by athenahealth, a leading provider of network-enabled software and services for healthcare practices and systems nationwide. Suki was selected for the preferred partner program, which denotes athenahealth’s formal recommendation for a validated, trusted solution, in the ambient intelligence category. Suki’s technology is available to athenaOne customers in two ways: directly through Suki’s app in athenahealth Marketplace, Suki for Clinicians, and through athenahealth’s Ambient Notes offering, with Suki’s embedded technology available via Suki for Partners.
Adoption of Suki across athenahealth’s customer base has skyrocketed over the past year, with 450+ practices and 3,400 monthly active users on Suki for Clinicians and athenahealth’s Ambient Notes combined, representing 50 percent growth in the past six months alone. In total, Suki generates approximately 500,000 clinical notes each month for providers using athenaOne. Suki for Clinicians’ adoption rate remains the highest in the industry, at over 82 percent.
“Artificial intelligence has the potential to transform clinical practice, but it needs to be deeply embedded, easy to use, and designed for scale,” said Punit Soni, CEO and Founder of Suki. “This partnership not only accelerates innovation but removes workflow friction and ensures that ambient intelligence can reach every corner of the athenahealth network - fulfilling a shared commitment to rethinking what is possible for clinicians.”
Suki’s deep integration with athenaOne places it directly within clinicians’ daily workflows, giving athenaOne providers access to AI assistive technology, while reducing the administrative burden that drives burnout. To deliver next-generation clinical AI capabilities at scale and ensure long-term alignment, Suki will also have fast-track access to integrate new athenaOne features.
