August Health is a health IT company founded in 2020 that builds an AI-enabled electronic health record (EHR) platform for senior living communities. The platform applies artificial intelligence and machine learning to clinical documentation, workflow automation and compliance, and is designed to surface predictive insights that support proactive care. Engineering work spans predictive analytics, clinical workflow automation and compliance automation, applied to the specific operational context of eldercare.
The August Health EHR Platform is composed of several modules: Move-ins, EHR, eMAR (electronic medication administration record), Billing and payments, Insights and Care tracking. The product is designed to be intuitive, easy to learn and easy to use, with an explicit goal of reducing caregiver burden and friction so that staff can focus on residents. The company targets the pressures facing senior living operators, including higher resident acuity, complex workflows, staffing shortages and the replacement of paper and legacy systems.

The company describes its mission as empowering the essential work of caring for elders. It operates in the United States and states that its platform is used by senior living operators across the country.
