Our story

Vital is on a mission to create beautiful, intelligent software for patients and providers. And we're not just saying this...

We're doing it.

Our talented team of AI aficionados, UI experts, medical professionals, and health system executives have built solutions that radically change the way health systems, providers, and patients interact in and beyond the hospital.

Founded by Mint.com creator Aaron Patzer and Emergency Physician Dr. Justin Schrager, we inform and engage over five million people per year. More than 100 hospitals use Vital to make patients happier, drive growth, achieve better clinical outcomes, and reduce workload for care teams.

Our core beliefs

These are the guiding principles of everything we do at Vital.

Health centric

Our goal is to create beautiful, intelligent software for patients and providers:

• To enable clear, calm, personalized guidance during and after acute or episodic health events.
• To translate what providers are doing and saying into understandable human terms.
• To motivate decisions with data and achievable actions across the care continuum.

Constant improvement

We continually innovate and push the bounds of health tech. That means AI and algorithms everywhere. Easy to use internal tools to make a small team more productive.

Intuitive

Vital is easy to use, with little-to-no training. We create software that people actually understand and can use.

Mission-driven

This is a decades-long business, and we care about this industry. Making a difference is important to us.
