Today is an important milestone in Commure’s journey and for our overall health assurance mission. When I started Commure with Diede van Lamoen, we often used the tagline “Better Software for Doctors” because a big part of our focus was on alleviating the burnout that technology has often caused for our critical healthcare workers.  Today we are announcing that Commure is acquiring Augmedix (NASDAQ: AUGX), and in doing so, creating the definitive leader in using artificial intelligence supporting workers.  We believe the combined solutions together provide a blueprint for the use of artificial intelligence by physicians and care teams through Commure Scribe and Augmedix Go. These companies will serve over 3 million physician appointments this year, empowering physicians to do what they do best in caring for patients, while automating the burden of documentation. For General Catalyst this is also a milestone as our first take-private. Our teams look forward to welcoming Ian, Manny, and the Augmedix team into Commure. Thank you to Tanay for the audacious focus to become a leader in artificial intelligence for health solutions which is a core part of our health assurance vision and venturing beyond the status quo.
