What Ambient Clinical Analytics does

Ambient Clinical Analytics is a Rochester, Minnesota-based healthcare technology company that provides FDA Class II cleared real-time clinical analytics and clinical decision support software to acute care hospitals and integrated health systems. Founded in 2014 as a spin-off from Mayo Clinic by physicians Dr. Brian Pickering, Dr. Vitaly Herasevich, and Dr. Ognjen Gajic alongside technology entrepreneur Al Berning, the company's flagship AWARE (Ambient Warning and Response Evaluation) platform combines over 1,330 clinically vetted rules and algorithms, including Mayo Clinic-licensed technology, with indicative and predictive analytics to deliver bedside clinical decision support, sepsis detection and bundle compliance via the Sepsis DART module, tele-ICU remote monitoring via the Clinical Control Tower, patient surveillance, and emergency department patient flow management via the YES Board dashboard.

The AWARE platform is designed to integrate with major EHR systems including Epic (via Connection Hub), Allscripts Sunrise (via the Developer Program), and MEDITECH (via Iatric Systems partnership), organizing patient data by organ systems to reduce alert fatigue, cut cognitive load, and surface actionable information to clinicians. The company sells primarily through enterprise direct sales to hospitals and health systems under a subscription-based pricing model with stated immediate ROI payback, reporting validated outcomes including up to 50% reduction in ICU medical errors, 50% reduction in ED length of stay, and potential per-hospital savings of up to $1 million annually for Sepsis DART deployments. Ambient has achieved FDA Class II clearance, CE Marking, and ISO 13485:2016 certification, and maintains core strategic partnerships with Mayo Clinic as founding partner and technology licensor, Mairs & Power Venture Capital, Waterline Ventures, Bluestem Capital, and international distribution partners including MeeHealth for the China market.
