The platform is built around AI agents, including LOLA, a voice AI agent that conducts patient phone conversations, executes clinical and care coordination workflows, and escalates to human teams when necessaryed.
Tucuvi states it supports more than 50 workflows, ranging from post-surgical follow-ups and transitions of care to chronic care management, pre-operative assessments, screenings, scheduling, or medication management.

Weʼre proud to already serve more than 60 healthcare organisations and to be expanding rapidly to meet growing demand.ˮ
