ANA Healthcare Closes €2.2 Million Seed Round

What ANA Healthcare Does

The company's platform, ANA Cohort, connects to hospital imaging systems to collect, pseudonymize, structure and index medical data using AI and NLP. It automatically generates research-ready patient cohorts for clinical research, AI training and pharma development.

Deployment Footprint

ANA Cohort is deployed at around 60 healthcare institutions in France and Europe. Named institutions include AP-HP, CHU de Montpellier and Karolinska.

Why It Matters

The Seed round provides ANA Healthcare with capital to support its ANA Cohort platform, which sits at the intersection of hospital imaging infrastructure and AI-driven data structuring. By connecting directly to hospital imaging systems and applying AI and NLP to pseudonymize, structure and index medical data, the platform targets the recurring bottleneck in clinical research and AI training: assembling usable, research-ready patient cohorts.

The company's existing deployment across roughly 60 healthcare institutions in France and Europe — including AP-HP, CHU de Montpellier and Karolinska — gives it an established base of hospital relationships as it scales. The participation of Région Sud Investissement and CAAP Création reflects regional and institutional support for the Marseille-based team.
