Chiefy, a New York-based cloud platform that helps surgical teams seamlessly embed quality and communication best practices, announced that it raised $4.2 million in seed funding to accelerate and expand product development and customer acquisition.

The round was led by LionBird, with participation from Nina Capital and Emerge Ventures. This new funding will fuel product development and expansion into new hospitals and health systems.

"When everyone is forced to do more with less, we must find new ways to employ technologies to help clinicians focus on what's important," said Chiefy Co-Founder and CEO Maya Ber Lerner. "Chiefy is built to challenge the idea that if hospitals want high quality, they need to be slower, or clinicians need to suffer. We believe that quality, efficiency, and clinician experience can be a win-win-win. This requires building a culture of trust, and our technology serves as an enabler for building this culture."

As a cloud-based SaaS platform, Chiefy represents a low-cost, low-risk opportunity for hospitals and health systems to quickly implement and scale a secure, compliant collaboration platform to engage clinicians and improve care quality. The platform is HIPAA compliant and does not require EMR integration to demonstrate results and return on investment.
