Fredericton-based ClinicGlide Technologies, which uses artificial intelligence to improve efficiency in healthcare, has raised six figures of funding from the New Brunswick Innovation Foundation and TLT East Ventures.
NBIF said on LinkedIn last week that it had invested $200,000 in the company, which uses agentic artificial intelligence to automate patient interactions and reduce administrative workloads in healthcare settings. The NBIF announcement follows a similar post by TLT, which said the two investment groups are co-leading the funding round. TLT did not specify the size of its investment.
ClinicGlide was co-founded by Scott MacIntosh, an entrepreneur and healthcare technology architect with more than 25 years of experience in digital transformation, and Dr. Hanif Chatur, an emergency physician and digital health innovator with more than two decades of experience building new models of care. The company’s AI platform automates multi-channel patient communications, streamlines appointment scheduling, and reduces repetitive administrative tasks for hospitals and clinics.
MacIntosh is the former CEO of the Fredericton-based tech consultancy SwiftRadius, which was acquired by Deloitte in 2014.
NBIF said the investment will support ClinicGlide’s continued AI development, integration with healthcare platforms, and company growth. The company’s technology is already being used to automate front-end workflows, resulting in as much as a 50 percent reduction in administrative load for healthcare providers.
“The ClinicGlide team’s vision for a smarter, more connected healthcare system makes this an exciting investment for NBIF,” said NBIF Chief Executive Jeff White in the post. “With Scott’s experience as a founder in digital transformation and Hanif’s recognized sector expertise, they’re building a valuable solution with global potential and strong roots in New Brunswick innovation.”
TLT East Ventures said the investment aligns with its mission to support entrepreneurs who drive job creation and economic growth in Atlantic Canada. Led by former investment banker Michael Brown, TLT launched earlier this year and has already invested in Eigen Innovations, SnapTrade and Profitual, all of Fredericton.
