[### mdhub - Clinical AI assistant for mental health clinics](

tl;dr
=====

Instead of seeing patients, mental health clinicians spend 50% of their time on other tasks, delaying access to mental health care. We aim to help them become 10x more efficient with our clinical AI assistant by automating tasks that keep them from seeing more patients.

Since our launch 6 months ago, we successfully saved clinicians more than 100,000 hours in admin tasks, enabling them to generate tens of millions in additional revenue.

Our Story
=========

We are [Dominik]( and [Efren,]( and we are on a mission to make mental healthcare accessible and affordable for everyone, everywhere. Efren holds an MSc in Computer Science and has been passionate about leveraging technology to improve health outcomes and has extensive experience building products. Dom holds a Masters in Management from London Business School and started his career at BCG.

Our joint journey started in 2018 at a hyperscale start-up, where Efren joined as a founding engineer and Dom as the first hands-on operator. Since then, we have been building products together. As mental health challenges rise globally, we're committed to being at the forefront of innovation, leveraging AI and data to improve lives and transform care.



The Problem
===========

Mental health issues are a growing concern in America, with approximately 50 million Americans currently grappling with a mental health condition. Alarmingly, this number is increasing by 1.5 million each year.

Concurrently, the US is on track to face a shortfall of 30,000 mental health clinicians by 2024, a situation that's already costing the US health system $300 billion annually due to delayed treatment.

In a world where time is of the essence, clinicians are spending only 50% of their day with patients, while the rest is consumed by tasks like clinical documentation, dealing with insurance, and other back-office heavy work.

Our Solution
============

We power mental health clinicians with mdhub’s clinical AI assistant, enabling them to focus on patient care.

The patient-clinician conversation is at the core of mental health treatment, and by capturing it, our clinical AI assistant can automate tasks that prevent clinicians from dedicating more time to patients, such as writing clinical documentation, drafting patient after-visit reports, pre-charting, and treatment planning.

We are particularly excited about receiving daily appreciation from our users.

“…I absolutely love the software.” Female, Psychotherapist, Montana.

“…You have a dynamite product. I am so happy I came across you guys.” Female, Psychotherapist, Nevada.

“…Instead of an hour of paperwork at the end of the day I’m wrestling with my kids, well worth it!” Male, Psychiatrist, Minnesota.

“…It is truly such a great help - I am currently actually near burnout and going down on FTE for this year because of notes, and your program has given me some hope, actually!” Male, Psychiatrist, Texas.

The Future We Are Building
==========================

We believe running a more efficient practice is just the first step. In the future we are building, we will empower clinicians to start and grow their practices, bringing us closer to our mission of making mental health accessible and affordable for everyone and everywhere.

How you can help
================

If you own, work for, or know someone at a mental health clinic, we’d love to connect.

If you work for a behavioral health insurance company or know someone who does, please contact us.
