Healthcare cybersecurity · Regulatory compliance software
Readily
Readily is AI compliance software for health plans and other healthcare organizations that links each regulatory change to the policies, assigned tasks, audits, and evidence that show the organization responded.
Strong fit
- Medicaid and Medicare Advantage plans facing frequent state and federal rule changes
- Compliance teams that want to track who owns each regulatory change
- State agencies, IPAs, and MSOs with policy libraries to keep current
Weak fit
- Provider practices looking for HIPAA security tools
- Buyers who want a published price
- Teams that want a full governance, risk, and compliance suite today
Bottom line
Readily helps health plans and other healthcare organizations see what a regulatory change requires, who owns the response, and whether the work is done. It suits plan compliance teams with heavy state and federal rule changes. Its broader enterprise oversight product is still being built.

Readily is used by health plans, state agencies, independent physician associations (IPAs), and management services organizations (MSOs), supporting more than 25 million covered lives across 46 states, according to its About page. When a regulation changes, Readily connects the requirement to affected policies, assigns actions, and tracks audits and supporting evidence, so compliance leaders can see what changed, who owns the response, and whether the work is complete. Qualified staff stay responsible for decisions.
On its Y Combinator page, Readily says it has cut regulatory analysis, policy drafting, and audit work by up to 90% for large healthcare organizations.
HIR's closest reviewed compliance tools are Compliancy Group, Abyde, and Censinet, which focus on HIPAA and security risk, and MDaudit, which audits billing.
Edward Tiong, a former Microsoft AI scientist, co-founded Readily and is chief executive. On October 13, 2026 Readily announced an $11 million Series A led by Define Ventures, with Y Combinator and the California Health Care Foundation Innovation Fund. L.A. Care Health Plan, the largest publicly operated health plan in the country, is a customer.
Readily plans to grow from compliance into what it calls enterprise oversight, a connected view of obligations, operations, and risk. That product is not on the market yet, and Readily publishes no price.
What customers say
"Our work with Readily is focused on helping our teams streamline administrative activities, support effective regulatory oversight and dedicate more time to higher-value compliance activities." Todd Gower, Chief Compliance Officer, L.A. Care Health Plan, in Readily's announcement.
"It used to take me 10 hours to review an All Plan Letter, and a junior staff twice as long. This saved me hours!" A manager of regulatory affairs, quoted on Readily's Y Combinator page.
