HIPAA compliant Austin, Texas Founded by clinicians

Our mission

Taking the documentation burden off clinicians.

Built by physicians, designed for healthcare organizations.

To alleviate the administrative and compliance burdens on clinicians so they can focus on exceptional patient care, while ensuring healthcare organizations operate with greater speed, accuracy, and cost-efficiency.

Our values

What guides every decision.

Four principles that shape what we build, how we build it, and who we build it with.

Patient-Centered Innovation

We design technology to improve patient care by supporting the clinicians who deliver it.

Integrity & Compliance

Protected health information is encrypted in transit and at rest, and a clinician approves every note.

Collaboration

We work hand-in-hand with medical professionals and the health organizations they serve.

Excellence & Efficiency

We strive for excellence in clinical and operational outcomes, constantly measuring and improving.

Our name

Why Pinotage.

Pinotage is a distinctly South African wine varietal, a nod to our founders' South African roots and to the global ambitions of the company they've built. Like the grape, the company is the product of two strong traditions brought together: deep clinical experience and disciplined operational craft.

South African roots, global ambitions

Our team

Clinicians and operators, building together.

Deep clinical experience meets disciplined operational craft: the two traditions behind Pinotage Health.

Built by physicians who still see patients.

Two of our co-founders are practicing physicians, and the product carries their fingerprints. The scribe charts to each clinician's own templates because that's how doctors actually write. Every note waits for the clinician's approval before it touches the record. And every suggested code has to pass real CMS and ICD-10 checks, because their names are the ones on the claim.

Where we stand

Built by physicians, designed for healthcare organizations.

We sit at the intersection of the exam room and the back office. For clinicians, we remove the paperwork that drives burnout. For organizations, we make the revenue cycle faster, more accurate, and less costly to run, all from one platform that covers documentation, coding, and billing.

For clinicians

  • More time with patients, not paperwork
  • Less burnout from tedious admin
  • Compliance without the headache

For organizations

  • Accurate coding accelerates the revenue cycle
  • Real-time insights with compliance checks built in
  • Lower operational cost through automation
