AI-driven healthcare startup Qure.ai has raised $65 million in its Series D funding round. The round was led by Lightspeed and 360 ONE Asset, with participation from Merck Global Health Innovation Fund and Kae Capital. Existing investors such as Novo Holdings, Health Quad, and TeamFund also contributed to the round, the company said in a statement.

Qure.ai plans to use the funding to accelerate its expansion into the US and other global markets. It also intends to increase funding in developing foundational AI models and for enhancing its technology base. Additionally, the investment will enable Qure.ai to pursue strategic acquisitions of complementary medtech companies, further strengthening its position in the healthcare AI industry.

Founded in 2016, Qure.ai has rapidly expanded its footprint, with its AI-driven healthcare solutions now deployed across 3,000+ sites in over 90 countries.

The company specialises in the identification and management of critical diseases, with 18 FDA-cleared indications and Class IIb certification under EU MDR regulations, the statement said.

“AI helps to overcome healthcare bottlenecks, from imaging reporting backlogs to workforce shortages, not only in Western societies like the US and Europe but also in developing nations,” said Prashant Warier, Co-founder and CEO of Qure.ai.
