What Tagnos does
Tagnos is a Southern California-based healthcare software company that provides a hardware-agnostic, RTLS-agnostic cloud-based Healthcare Orchestration Platform combining real-time location data with AI/ML-driven predictive analytics to automate hospital clinical logistics workflows. Its platform is structured around three core solutions: OR Orchestration (room turnover, scheduling, on-time starts), ED Orchestration (throughput, length-of-stay reduction, LWBS management), and Asset Orchestration (BLE/RFID-based asset tracking, surgical tray visibility, and shrinkage reduction). The architecture integrates disparate hospital data sources including RTLS (BLE, Active RFID, Passive RFID, Wi-Fi, Infrared, Ultrasound from vendors such as Cisco, Juniper, Zebra, Kontakt.io, and Enlighted), EHR/EMR via HL7, and communications systems (Vocera, Cisco Spark, Microsoft Teams) through a Data Engine and TAGNOS Connect interoperability layer, with an AI/ML Engine delivering predictive insights for patient flow and equipment demand.
The company monetizes through subscription-based enterprise software licenses with bundled implementation, configuration, and account management services. Distribution is exclusively direct enterprise sales to hospital C-suite, operations leadership, and clinical informatics teams, with quote-based custom pricing on annual billing cycles. Tagnos has been deployed at major US health systems including Adventist Health, Providence St. Joseph's, USC Keck Medicine, and St. Joseph Hospital of Orange, as well as internationally at Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust in the UK. The company has raised over $12M from investors including Zebra Technologies, Honeywell, Cisco, Benhamou Global Ventures, Morpheus Ventures, and angel investors. In August 2025, Tagnos merged with Sonitor, a global RTLS infrastructure provider, creating a vertically integrated end-to-end RTLS-plus-software entity (Sonitor, Inc.) with Zebra Ventures and institutional investors as shareholders of the combined company.

Tagnos product offering
Product offeringCore offering
Tagnos sells a cloud-based Healthcare Orchestration Platform that aggregates real-time location data (BLE, RFID, Wi-Fi, IR, Ultrasound) and clinical/EHR data, then applies AI/ML to deliver three subscription software solutions: OR Orchestration for surgical suite throughput, ED Orchestration for emergency department workflow, and Asset Orchestration for hospital-wide equipment and surgical tray tracking. The platform is hardware-agnostic and RTLS-agnostic, sold as annual recurring licenses bundled with implementation and account management services to enterprise hospital customers.
Product overview
TAGNOS is a clinical logistics automation and healthcare workflow orchestration platform that combines real-time location systems (RTLS) with artificial intelligence and machine learning to optimize hospital operations. The platform is built around a unified core platform (TAGNOS Healthcare Orchestration Platform) with three primary solutions: OR Orchestration for operating room optimization, ED Orchestration for emergency department workflow, and Asset Orchestration for enterprise-wide asset tracking. Supporting these core products are specialized modules including TAGNOS Connect (interoperability platform), Operational Intelligence, Workflow Orchestration, Mobile Operations, AI/ML Engine, Real Time Location Systems, Proximity Monitoring/Contact Tracing, Asset Visibility, Asset Management, Surgical Tray Visibility, and dedicated OR/ED Workflow and Planning modules. The platform supports multiple RTLS technologies (BLE, RFID, Wi-Fi, IR) and integrates with clinical systems including EHR/EMR, HL7 interfaces, and various communication platforms.

Tagnos competitors and assessment
Company assessmentEmerging players
- Enlighted (Siemens): Enlighted is a Siemens-owned IoT building platform with RTLS location data via lighting infrastructure. It is a Tagnos technology partner but also a competing provider of RTLS data into hospital operational workflows.
- Care Logistics: Care Logistics (now part of HCTec) provides hospital throughput and patient flow orchestration software, directly competing with Tagnos's ED Orchestration and operational intelligence modules.
- Kontakt.io: Kontakt.io provides BLE tags, room sensors, and location analytics used in healthcare asset and patient tracking. It is a Tagnos integration partner but also an emerging competitor with its own workflow software stack.
Broad incumbents
- McKesson (formerly Change Healthcare / RelayHealth): McKesson acquired the former Versus Technology, a hospital RTLS and patient flow automation provider. As a healthcare distribution and technology incumbent, it overlaps with Tagnos's hospital operational intelligence focus.
- GE Healthcare: GE Healthcare is a broad incumbent in hospital operations, command centers, and asset management (including via the former Intel-GE telehealth joint venture). It overlaps with Tagnos's OR/ED workflow and asset orchestration across a much wider portfolio.
- Baxter (Hillrom / Hill-Rom): Baxter acquired Hillrom, which offered the Voalte patient communication platform and RTLS-based asset and patient flow solutions for hospitals, competing with Tagnos's workflow orchestration and mobile operations offerings.
Direct peers
- Securitas Healthcare (formerly Stanley Healthcare): Securitas Healthcare provides RTLS-based asset tracking, patient elopement, infant protection, and hand hygiene compliance solutions to hospitals globally, overlapping directly with Tagnos's asset and patient flow orchestration modules.
- Zebra Technologies: Zebra is both a Tagnos technology partner (MotionWorks RTLS) and a Zebra Ventures shareholder. Zebra's MotionWorks platform and clinical-grade mobile devices compete in the same hospital RTLS and workflow space, making it both a partner and a competitor.
- CenTrak (now part of Halma): CenTrak is a leading healthcare-focused RTLS provider offering BLE, UHF RFID, and IR location technologies plus workflow software for clinical operations, asset tracking, and hand hygiene — directly competing with Tagnos's multi-condition hospital orchestration footprint.
- Sonitor: Sonitor is the RTLS infrastructure provider that merged with Tagnos in August 2025. It is the most direct comparable, offering high-precision indoor positioning (SonitorONE) that pairs with Tagnos's workflow software — the two halves of what is now a single combined platform.
