BOSTON (October 29, 2025) – Cohere Health®, the leader in clinical intelligence solutions for health plans, has been ranked No. 1 on the 2025 LinkedIn Top Startups List in Boston. The annual list highlights emerging companies that are engaging users, growing rapidly, and attracting top talent across Boston’s innovation ecosystem.
The LinkedIn Top Startups list leverages exclusive platform data measuring employment growth, engagement, job interest, and attraction of top talent. The companies included demonstrate strong momentum and dynamic work environments that appeal to professionals seeking meaningful impact and career growth.
Cohere Health continues to distinguish itself through measurable results and an employee-first culture. The company now partners with 660,000 providers, processes more than 12 million prior authorization requests annually, and maintains a 94% provider satisfaction rate as its clinically trained AI automates up to 90% of prior authorization requests. Cohere Health has also grown to nearly 900 employees worldwide, with programs focused on leadership development, career pathing, and wellness that foster engagement and retention across its remote-first workforce.
“We are honored to once again be named as a Top Startup in Boston,” said Margo Hendrickson, chief people officer for Cohere Health. “This recognition reflects the dedication, innovation, and mission-driven spirit of our team–both across the city of Boston where we have our roots, and throughout the company. Our people believe deeply in simplifying healthcare decisions for physicians, health plans, and patients, and their commitment is what continues to drive our growth, impact, and culture.”
This recognition follows a year of significant momentum for Cohere Health, marked by its $90 million Series C funding round; strategic collaborations with leading health plans, Microsoft Dragon Copilot, and AWS; and the launch of its Payment Integrity Suite to streamline healthcare processes from care planning to payment. Together, these milestones advance the company’s mission to simplify healthcare decision-making with responsible, clinical-grade AI that improves outcomes and payer-provider collaboration across the care continuum.
Cohere Health has now been recognized by LinkedIn for the third consecutive year for its momentum and innovation, following its inclusion in LinkedIn’s National Top Startups List for 2023 (#5) and 2024 (#2), and ranking first in last year’s inaugural list of LinkedIn Top Startups in Boston.
