NPR | Authenticx Humanizes Artificial Intelligence via Gleaned Healthcare Tele-conversations

Authenticx Founder and CEO Amy Brown was recently featured in a podcast from NPR, Journeys of Discovery with correspondent and host Tom Wilmer.

In this episode, Amy and Tom discuss how Authenticx aggregates, analyzes, and activates hundreds of millions of recorded healthcare customer interactions that are already occurring—often stored and ignored in organizations—with reliable data-backed insights to prompt action within the customer journey that humanizes artificial intelligence.

The healthcare industry is dominated by three core sub-verticals–pharmaceuticals, payers, and healthcare providers. Healthcare consumers (customers, patients, members) get stuck in a cycle of obstacles between those verticals to attempt to receive the healthcare that they need. By taking in these conversations into the Authenticx AI platform, organizations can begin to listen at scale to the actual voices of their customers. Leveraging a team equipped with organizational data, industry-specific knowledge, and customer feedback, Authenticx helps healthcare leaders listen in an efficient, effective way that can transform CX to better achieve business and patient outcomes.

“Most of the focus of the AI industry these days are on how to replace human beings or try to make our lives easier – for us, it’s really about how do we help enhance the human experience and how do we leverage the best of technology to do that…so, our whole mission is to help leaders have a data-backed way to connect to their customer and know the truth of what’s actually happening in their customer journey.”

In this conversation, President and CEO of TechPoint, Ting Gootee, also explains how meeting Amy helped provide Authenticx capital funding that has led to the company to expansive growth–more than doubling employment since 2021, a 2.5x increase in ARR in 2022, securing their Series B investment in 2023, and finding a spot on the Inc. 5000 list at #349 and #1 in Indiana.
