Matic Marks a Year of Momentum: From a Single Ambient Scribe to a 15x-Growth Clinical Intelligence Ecosystem Powering Patients, Practices and Physicians

Published

on

In one year, Matic grew its revenue 15x, cut after-hours charting 83% for physicians, earned a 100% would-buy-again rating from KLAS Research, and evolved from a single ambient scribe into an AI-native ecosystem built around patients, practices and physicians across healthcare.

DALLAS, Aug. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — One year ago, before going into stealth, Matic offered a single product, Scribematic, a best-in-class ambient scribe. Recently, Matic came out of stealth when it launched its AI-native clinical intelligence ecosystem connecting the full care-to-collection lifecycle for patients, physicians, and practices. That progress is backed by independent industry recognition, a marquee partnership with a physician-led primary care network, and revenue growth that reflects accelerating demand across the healthcare system.

Matic now connects panel management, chart preparation, ambient documentation, clinical evidence, medical coding, practice oversight, patient communication, and care coordination into a single ecosystem built around what the company calls the Three P’s: Patients, Practices, and Physicians. The result: patients get the best care, practices get the best economics, and physicians fall back in love with practicing medicine.

Where It Started: One Scribe, One Stubborn Belief

Matic’s story starts with two paths colliding from opposite directions. Dr. Alex Sheppert, DO, PhD, MBA, an AI engineer and published AI researcher, founded Scribematic while in medical school, building one of the world’s first ambient scribes to solve a problem he was living firsthand: the burden of clinical documentation. Calvin Carter spent nearly two decades on the other end of the technology spectrum as founder and CEO of Bottle Rocket, creating award-winning consumer apps for brands like Chick-fil-A, NPR and Southwest Airlines. Rather than simply commercialize what Sheppert built, Carter stepped in as CEO, moved the company to Dallas, and rebuilt it from the ground up around one belief: serve the physician first, and everyone else wins. That partnership, a physician-programmer and a design mind, is why Matic works the way it does. It gives physicians superpowers to deliver the best care of their lives, and takes care of everything else.

In November 2025, the company rebranded from Scribematic to Matic, marking its evolution into a connected platform spanning the entire care-to-collection lifecycle. Codematic, its medical coding and revenue-integrity product, launched the same month, and UrgentIQ, a leading AI-native urgent care EHR, selected Matic Inside to power real-time, in-platform documentation.

Building the Full Ecosystem

What followed was a rapid build-out of what Matic calls ‘The Matics’: a total solution, not a point solution. Every piece, from chart preparation to medical coding, carries forward and builds on itself instead of solving one task in isolation. Patient history informs documentation, documentation informs coding, and evidence informs decisions in one connected system.

The ecosystem today includes:

Scribematic: ambient, multilingual clinical documentationCodematic: clinical-intent medical coding and revenue integritySummatic: longitudinal patient context and continuity across encountersProofmatic: citation-backed clinical evidence with patient context inside the workflowFlowmatic: care-flow coordination across teams and settingsPulsematic: intelligent prioritization of the clinical inbox

Independent Validation

The market has taken notice. In January 2026, KLAS Research named Scribematic an Emerging Company in AI-driven medical documentation, citing accuracy, deep customizability, and a 100% repeat-buy intent among interviewed customers. The following month, Noorda College of Osteopathic Medicine chose Matic to prepare its medical students for AI-enabled clinical practice, a full-circle moment for the platform born in Noorda’s own clinical rotations. Catalyst Health Group selected Matic to deploy across its network of primary care physicians, and UrgentIQ, a leading AI-native urgent care EHR, integrated Matic Inside to power its real-time, in-platform documentation.

Founder and CTO Dr. Alex Sheppert, DO, PhD, MBA, has also become a recognized voice in healthcare AI. In the past year, he’s published peer-reviewed research in the Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association and the International Journal of Medical Informatics on how large language models reason, and sometimes fail, in clinical settings, written for the Forbes Technology Council on AI’s expanding role in the workplace, and delivered invited lectures at Baylor University Medical Center and his alma mater, Noorda College of Osteopathic Medicine. CEO Calvin Carter has drawn similar recognition: he was named to the 2026 AI 75 by Dallas Innovates and the Dallas Regional Chamber, and is a finalist for D CEO’s 2026 Leadership Excellence Award.

Exiting Stealth: The New PX

In June 2026, Matic exited stealth with what it calls the New PX, a fully reimagined Patient, Practice and Physician experience engineered by that same founding pair: Dr. Alex Sheppert, DO, PhD, MBA, the physician-programmer who lived the problem firsthand, and Calvin Carter, founder of Bottle Rocket, whose team built award-winning digital experiences for Chick-fil-A, NPR, Southwest Airlines, LEGO and Starwood/Marriott, work recognized four times in Apple’s App Store Hall of Fame. Carter’s track record has been chronicled by Dallas’ business press: he’s a past winner of Ernst & Young’s Entrepreneur of the Year and Tech Titans’ CEO of the Year, a repeat honoree on D CEO Magazine’s Dallas 500 list, and was named to the 2026 AI 75 by Dallas Innovates and the Dallas Regional Chamber. He’s also a finalist for D CEO’s 2026 Leadership Excellence Award. D CEO and D Magazine have continued to track his move into healthcare, most recently profiling Matic’s mission to bring AI into clinical care.

The New PX is built on three governing principles: start with the stakeholders- physicians, patients, and practices, not the billing system; design for experience, not just function; and win through engagement, not mandates. Every capability inside Matic is designed, tested, and refined inside a live clinical environment rather than shipped as a fixed, generic tool and left for physicians to adapt around.

“Human-centered design is at our core. We reimagined the experience for what we call the Three P’s: patients, practices and physicians. We built, deployed and tested solutions until we were certain we served all three at once.” – Calvin Carter, CEO of Matic

A Declaration for Primary Care

Weeks later, timed to the country’s 250th birthday, Matic and Catalyst Health Group (the physician-led, AI-native primary care network founded by Dr. Christopher Crow, MD, MBA, supporting more than 850+ physicians and advanced practice providers across Texas) issued a joint Declaration of Independence for Primary Care, outlining Ten Fundamental Freedoms for Physicians and sharing the first public results of Matic deployed at scale inside a real physician network. Catalyst physicians reported dramatic reductions in unlocked charts, near-immediate note completion, and a return to the kind of present, human care that drew them to medicine in the first place.

“Primary care has been marginalized or undervalued for a long time, even though we know it’s what helps people live longer, healthier and more meaningful lives. Our job is to put primary care back where it belongs and give physicians the support they need to do what they do best: care for patients. That’s where Matic comes in, using technology to take work off their plate, sharpen their thinking, and bring the human connection back into care.” – Dr. Christopher Crow, MD, CEO of Catalyst Health Group

“When you serve the physician first, everyone benefits. Physicians deliver better care, patients get better outcomes, and practices thrive. Catalyst Health Group has proven that in real clinical use, and we are just getting started.” – Calvin Carter, CEO of Matic

The Numbers Behind the Momentum

This Declaration isn’t just a statement of intent. It’s validated by results. Across the Catalyst physician network, Matic has turned physician burnout, long treated as an unavoidable cost of practicing medicine, into a measurable, moving number:

Speed, per encounter:

60 seconds: physician fully prepared for patient encounter35 seconds: customized coding-aware clinical note from live audio11.2 minutes: average encounter length due to complete prep and reduced administrative tasks. What looks like a faster visit is actually a more attentive one: physicians spend that time examining, listening, and talking with patients instead of reconstructing a chart.Under a minute: nonuple-checked diagnosis and billing codes, returned with the clinical evidence attached.

Scale and reliability:

97%: same-day chart closure rate across tracked encounters99%: ambient documentation accuracy

Physician impact:

Physicians using the platform report approximately 90 minutes of administrative time returned per dayDocumentation accuracy reported at 99% by adopting physicians, generated within seconds of each visitAfter-hours charting down 83% across the Catalyst networkThe ability to see up to 4 more patients each dayReduced revenue leakage and claims appeal costs100% reported loving practicing again, reduced cognitive burden, and increased preparedness for better care

Patient impact:

Care gaps surface before the patient is roomed rather than after the visit endsCare plans arrive complete and evidence-backed, grounded in the patient’s own history rather than a generic protocolFollow-up and inbox messages are handled with full patient context intactPatients report that time with their physician feels different, and that they feel more valued

One physician cleared a 17-chart backlog to fully closed documentation by lunchtime the day after adopting Matic. Physicians across the network describe the same shift: less time buried in a chart, more time with the person in front of them.

“Matic gives me back time and mental space. Instead of starting early, staying late, and digging through data, I can focus on the patient in front of me. It reduces the cognitive load and lets me practice medicine the way I intended.” – Dr. Doug Fullington, Catalyst Physician Group

“With Matic, I now walk into each visit fully prepared. I can focus entirely on the patient, be more thorough, and more present.” – Dr. Madhavi Ampajwala, Catalyst Physician Group

“You press a button and within seconds you have a complete note. The accuracy has been 99.9%, and it’s immediate.” – Dr. Phu Truong, Catalyst Physician Group

“A few months in, I’m seeing nearly twice as many patients and getting more done each day. My patients notice it too. They tell me they feel more attention when we’re together.” – Stephen Buksh, MD, Catalyst Physician Group

“We built Matic because I lived the problem. I know what it feels like to finish notes instead of being with my family, to look at a screen instead of a patient. A year ago we were solving one problem. Today we’re solving the whole system, and the market is telling us, in the fastest way it can, that this is the right problem to solve.” – Alex Sheppert, DO, PhD, MBA, Founder and CTO of Matic

Those outcomes are a big part of why Matic has grown revenue 15x since its founding rebrand, proof that when physicians win, the business does too.

What’s Next

Matic is now available to independent primary care practices, physician groups, ambulatory care organizations, and health systems, fully integrated with existing EHRs including the athenahealth ecosystem, and available to technology partners.

North Launches North v3 to Help Companies Manage and Optimize Cloud, AI, and Data Spend in One Platform

Published

on

By

North’s platform-wide v3 release adds Microsoft Azure, completing full coverage across all three major cloud providers, alongside a third-party integrations library, autonomous optimization, and a redesigned user experience.

NEW YORK, Aug. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — North.cloud today launched North v3, a platform-wide release that brings cloud, AI, and data spend into a single system. The release adds Microsoft Azure, completing North’s coverage across all three major hyperscalers. It also introduces native integrations with OpenAI, Anthropic, and Snowflake, and an upgraded autonomous commitment management engine that purchases and adjusts cloud commitments automatically.

As companies expand across multiple cloud providers while adopting AI services and modern data platforms, managing infrastructure spend has become increasingly complex. Cloud, AI model, and data platform costs are now deeply intertwined, yet most teams still track them in separate tools.

North v3 expands North’s multi-cloud capabilities with the general availability of Microsoft Azure, joining Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) to support all three major hyperscale cloud providers. Azure is available following a successful beta program with early customers. Native integrations with OpenAI, Anthropic, and Snowflake are now live in North’s growing integrations library, bringing AI and data platform spend into the same system as cloud infrastructure. These integrations establish the foundation for broader optimization capabilities across modern infrastructure as North continues to expand support for additional platforms.

North v3 also introduces Autobot, an autonomous commitment management engine powered by Noros, North’s AI FinOps copilot, that models usage daily and automatically purchases and renews cloud commitments across every provider. Using machine learning to evaluate usage patterns, renewal windows, and projected demand, Autobot balances a mix of one- and three-year commitments and automatically purchases, renews, scales, or reduces customer-owned commitments as infrastructure needs evolve.

“The infrastructure our customers manage today looks very different than it did even a few years ago,” said Matt Biringer, CEO of North. “Cloud spend no longer stops at compute and storage. It includes AI models, data platforms, GPUs, and multiple cloud providers. North v3 reflects that shift by bringing those systems together in one place and automating more of the work required to manage them.”

North v3 also includes:

Generative dashboards in beta that allow users to build dashboards and surface insights using natural language within Noros AI, North’s FinOps LLMA redesigned commitment management experience, including more granular visibility, interactive simulations, and planning tools that help teams evaluate different savings strategies before making purchasing decisionsA redesigned user experience with simplified navigation and an updated interface for engineering and finance teamsA cross-cloud usage optimization feature, Rightsize, now extends to GCP alongside AWS, with plans to expand to additional cloud providersTokenFlow, a feature for governing token usage, spend, budgeting, and model health, available in early betaA refreshed brand experience, including an updated website and visual identity

Availability

North v3 is available beginning August 20, 2026, with additional integrations and capabilities planned in future releases.

As Enterprises Scale AI Agent Deployments Across Data and AI Workloads, Growing Infrastructure Demand Fuels Redpanda’s Record Performance

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Redpanda, the leading provider of mission-critical data and agent governance infrastructure, today announced record second quarter fiscal 2027 results, with new ARR growing more than 100% year over year on strong new customer growth and expanded adoption among existing customers. The company’s growth is fueled by increased global demand for infrastructure that supports mission critical real-time data and AI workloads across the enterprise.

Redpanda is a leading AI and data platform built to handle the real-time data that moves markets, settles trades, and powers global manufacturing. Hundreds of organizations, including Global 2000 enterprises, already trust Redpanda with their mission critical data and AI workloads. Now, as agents begin acting on that data, Redpanda provides the governance enterprises require in order to see and control what agents can access and do, and to enforce policy across agents, data, and systems.

“The next phase of AI is not about building better models. It’s about connecting those models to the private data and systems that run the enterprise, while maintaining control over the data that matters most,” said Alex Gallego, CEO and Co-founder, Redpanda. “The infrastructure that was built for applications was designed for humans, not machines. Agents can make decisions, take actions, work across domains, and generate code on the fly and often inherit permissions far greater than what they need. Agents need real-time data, governance, and control across models and systems. That’s the layer Redpanda provides, and it’s becoming fundamental to how enterprises put AI into production.”

Financial highlights and company momentum:

Grew new ARR more than 100% year-over-yearClosed a record number of expansion deals, driven by enterprises making Redpanda strategic to their data and agentic workloadsLaunched Redpanda Frontier, a new partner program already spanning 30 partners across 14 countries. Partners are helping customers use Redpanda across their data and AI initiatives, accelerating the path from technology investment to business outcome.Opened a new R&D office in Warsaw, Poland, adding engineering capacity to keep pace with customer demand as more of the world’s most consequential companies run their mission-critical data and AI workloads on Redpanda

Product highlights:

Expanded the capabilities of the industry-first agentic governance platform for AI agents, introducing an industry first Out-of-Band Policy Engine (OBPE) that enforces data and action policies at the MCP boundary, where agents cannot read, modify, or circumvent those policies, alongside a live network graph of every agent, model, and tool in the enterpriseExtended Redpanda SQL, the PostgreSQL API-compatible analytical engine purpose-built for agentic governance, to general availability on Google Cloud in addition to AWS, deployed inside customers’ own cloud accounts so agent transcripts never leave their networkAdded additional performance results for real-time analytics, demonstrating consistent query latency across a 10x increase in data volume and a 7x speedup on heavy analytical queries when scaling from one node to eightAdded additional data integration capabilities to a platform with 300+ connectors used by companies moving billions of events a day, including a visual pipeline composer, SAP HANA and BigQuery Write API connectors, and full CDC semantics in the Iceberg output

Industry accolades and awards:

Featured in NVIDIA’s data processing ecosystem for agentic AI, alongside AWS, Google Cloud, IBM, Oracle, Dell, and HPENamed a Leader in the ISG Real-Time Data Emerging Providers Buyers Guide 2026

The shift from AI experimentation to production is creating a new infrastructure requirement. Agents need real-time access to enterprise data to act, while companies need visibility and control over what agents can access and do across systems and models. Open source has made AI easier to build and frontier AI labs provide the models, but neither solves the infrastructure challenge of connecting those models to private enterprise data and governing their actions. Redpanda brings together real-time data, governance, and control across models, giving enterprises the infrastructure to put agents to work at scale—without giving up control.

About Redpanda
Redpanda builds the data infrastructure that many businesses already run on, and because your agents need the same governed, real-time access to that data as your applications do, it is also the platform that connects, governs, and audits your agents. It’s all built on a battle-tested data platform that unifies data streaming, intelligent connectivity, and SQL analytics into a single system, delivering high throughput at low latency and unmatched value. Available as Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC), self-managed, or fully managed cloud, Redpanda is trusted by hundreds of organizations, including Global 2000 enterprises across industries, and a thriving global community of tens of thousands of developers.
