Opalite Health is building the language layer for healthcare. Founded by a physician and a former Apple engineer, the Y Combinator-backed company provides real-time AI medical interpretation across 150+ languages and dialects for hospitals, health centers, and clinics. Opalite works across common care settings and integrates with existing EHR and telehealth workflows, producing clinical documentation and auditable records while supporting HIPAA-compliant operations. In a blinded validation study across Cantonese, Mandarin, and Spanish, Opalite reported more than 90% fewer errors than certified medical interpreters. A customer case study also reported 50% lower interpretation costs and 22% less time per interpreted visit. The platform is designed to expand language access while helping care teams reduce delays, improve consistency, and preserve clinical workflow.
