Sage Care

The founders are Justin Ho (CEO), Dr. Caesar Djavaherian (CMO), and Chris Blumenberg (CTO). This team combines expertise from various high-profile tech and healthcare companies. Ho co-founded rideOS, which developed intelligent dispatch and routing software and was acquired by Gopuff, and also led teams at Uber's self-driving division. Dr. Djavaherian is an emergency medicine physician and a co-founder of Carbon Health, where he was involved in scaling operations significantly. Blumenberg was a co-inventor of the iPhone, a co-founder of rideOS, and worked on developing complex backend systems at Apple and Uber. The founders' motivation stemmed from personal frustrations with navigating the healthcare system, particularly Ho's experience scheduling follow-up appointments for his newborn daughter.

Sage Care's platform functions as a care navigation operating system for health systems. It uses AI agents to automate and streamline administrative and patient interactions, such as triaging patient calls 24/7, managing appointment scheduling, handling referral processing, and coordinating follow-ups for diagnostics and care plans. The system is designed for rapid deployment, with AI agents that can be trained and implemented within 48 hours. The business model targets health systems, multispecialty clinics, and large healthcare providers, aiming to increase their revenue by 15-20% through better care coordination, optimized scheduling, and reduced patient no-shows. In October 2025, Sage Care publicly launched with $20 million in funding from investors including Yosemite, General Catalyst, and Metrodora.
