Astra Health

What Astra Health does

Astra Health (legal entity Astra Health AI Pty Ltd, ABN 33 673 876 223) is a Sydney-headquartered digital health SaaS company founded in 2023 by Gunjan Wadhwa. It operates a multilingual AI medical scribe that passively captures patient-clinician consultations in real time, transcribes speech across 145+ languages and dialects, and drafts structured clinical notes, MBS-aligned care plans, referral letters, and patient summaries for clinician review and export to existing EMR/PMS systems. The platform includes specialty-specific variants for general practice, mental health, and obstetrics/gynaecology, a customizable templates library, and an in-workflow assistant called Ask Astra.

The underlying technical stack centers on real-time speech recognition and natural language processing tuned for Australian accents, multilingual patient populations, and Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) billing requirements. A privacy-first architecture deletes audio immediately after transcription and stores Australian and New Zealand user data locally, with stated compliance to HIPAA, Australian Privacy Principles (APP 3), the Australian Privacy Act 1988, and the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme. Specialty productization and integration partnerships suggest an emerging ecosystem play beyond the core scribing engine.

The business model is per-clinician subscription SaaS priced at AU$99/month or AU$999/year per clinician, with a 14-day free trial and no credit card requirement for self-serve sign-up. A custom-priced Enterprise tier with dedicated account management and multi-year contracts targets larger practices, while a separate Integration Plan supports exclusive EMR/PMS co-sell arrangements. Go-to-market combines product-led growth for individual clinicians and SMB clinics with sales-assisted enterprise motion via Calendly demo booking; the customer base spans at least 8-10 named Australian clinic groups (including MyHealth, South Medical, ForHealth, Our Medical, Bond Street Medical, Procare, Bateau Bay, Newington) plus individual GPs, psychiatrists, and specialists across Australia and New Zealand.
