CARPL.ai has raised $10 million in a Series A funding round, the radiology artificial intelligence app market announced on Thursday.
International Finance Corp. (IFC)—the private sector arm of the World Bank Group—led the capital raise, with participation from India-based Stellaris Venture Partners and others. Founded in 2021, CARPL bills itself as the “world’s largest AI marketplace,” offering over 300 applications across 100-plus AI partners.
The company, which has dual headquarters in Delhi and San Francisco, allows radiologists and researchers to “seamlessly” build, test, deploy and monitor radiology AI solutions in clinical practice. Leaders said the fresh funds will help CARPL develop new products, beef up its partner network and pursue commercial growth across North America and elsewhere.
“Expanding access to high-quality diagnostics in emerging markets is one of the most pressing priorities in global healthcare, and AI is becoming a critical part of the solution,” Farid Fezoua, IFC’s global director for private equity and venture capital, said in a statement July 23. “CARPL.ai is building the digital infrastructure that enables healthcare providers to adopt AI at scale, improving diagnostic quality and expanding access to care.”
Fezoua also touted the company’s “deep technology talent” in India, with CARPL creating “high-skilled jobs while addressing a critical global healthcare need.” The platform is currently used by 4 of the world’s 5 top radiology groups and also deployed by governments in Brazil, India, Singapore, Spain and elsewhere. While CARPL currently focuses on radiology, the company aspires to be the primary procurement, integration and utilization tool for all clinical AI in healthcare.
“We will soon move beyond medical imaging into the domains of pathology, genomics and general medicine, and one day, if there is a robotic surgeon somewhere using AI to perform surgery, we hope that it will be running through CARPL,” said Dr. Vidur Mahajan, MBA, CEO of CARPL, which is named after its original software tool, the CARING (Center for Advanced Research in Imaging, Neurosciences and Genomics) Analytics Platform.
