Pathos AI is led by executives formerly with Tempus, a well-known healthcare data company focused on leveraging artificial intelligence and data analytics for precision medicine.
The latest investment comes amidst Pathos AI´s plans to launch a significant new funding round. According to a recent SEC filing, the company signaled its intention to raise a considerable amount of equity investment, although the exact figures are not publicly detailed in the available document.
