Overview

Akira is a doctor in your pocket. We're making Canadian healthcare mobile.

With Akira, Canadians can consult with a family doctor on-demand by secure mobile text or video. Our objective is to bring healthcare into the 21st century by making it convenient, fast, and transparent. Akira gives members full access to their own health data, including labs, imaging, doctor’s notes, and prescriptions.

Based in Toronto, we’re building an interdisciplinary team of physicians, developers, data scientists and designers to tackle hard problems in healthcare technology. Our mobile health platform - launching in Q1 2016 in Canada to a group of 15 customers - will bring much-needed change to a medical system still reliant on fax machines and paper charts.

Long-term, our goal is to harness our growing data set to automate medicine.
