Allia Health, a US-based healthtech startup, has raised $2 million in funding with support from top investor Tim Draper. The company now plans to expand into Pakistan, according to co-founder Saroosh Khan. Angel investors from Stanford Healthcare Innovation Labs also joined the funding round.
Allia Health is focused on improving mental healthcare through technology. Based in the US, with its engineering team largely in Pakistan, the platform helps mental health professionals by making their work easier. It offers telehealth services, treatment planning, session notes, and patient data tracking—all in one place. This allows therapists to focus more on patients and less on paperwork.
The startup also helps mental health providers get better insurance payments by showing real progress in patient outcomes. The platform is currently free for individual therapists, and future revenue will come from partnerships with healthcare insurers.
As Allia looks to expand in Pakistan, the company aims to fix two big problems: the lack of central medical records and low trust in telehealth. Saroosh Khan believes that these are major challenges, but also opportunities to improve healthcare access in cities.
With strong support and new funding, Allia plans to grow its team and research in both the US and Pakistan.
