AcuityMD, an AI platform automating sales and CRM workflows for medtech companies, secured $80 million in Series C funding. The round valued the company at $955 million.

AcuityMD's software targets a specific pain point in medical device sales: automating call recaps, CRM data entry, and related administrative tasks. The medtech sector has increasingly adopted AI tools to reduce manual work and improve sales team efficiency. The Series C round demonstrates investor confidence in enterprise AI solutions serving vertical markets. AcuityMD joins a growing cohort of startups applying automation to specialized industries where software adoption rates have historically lagged broader tech sectors. CEO Michael Monovoukas shared details of the funding with Axios Pro. The capital will likely fund product development, sales expansion, and deeper penetration into the medtech vertical.
