Flexzo AI, an agentic workforce system for healthcare providers has completed a $12m (£8.9m) Series A funding round led by Octopus Ventures.
The hospital workforce management tool provider said the financing will support the rollout of its platform across NHS Trusts and accelerate expansion in the US.
Founded in 2023, Flexzo AI was launched to address the outdated processes, poor visibility, and fragmented compliance workflows present in NHS locations seen by founder Jack Henderson when he ran a clinical insourcing company delivering services to NHS patients.
With Flexzo, hospitals can source temporary and permanent staff from its talent pool without paying a fee. The platform also contains rostering tools, staff bank ad float pool management and a national database of pre-verified healthcare professionals.
“The way healthcare organisations manage their workforce hasn’t fundamentally changed in decades,” said Henderson.
“Until now. Hospitals shouldn’t be forced to rely on inefficient processes and spiralling agency costs. With Flexzo AI, we’re delivering the step change in efficiency the system urgently needs”
Alongside Octopus Ventures, the Series A round included investment from Fuel Ventures.
“We are excited to support Flexzo in applying AI where it truly matters. The strong ROI impact already delivered across NHS Trusts – alongside early traction in the US – demonstrates both the urgency of the problem and the strength of the product,” said Uthish Ranjan, a partner at Octopus Ventures.
