What Medtigo does

Medtigo (legal entity: medtigo, LLC, Massachusetts) is a privately held healthcare technology and services company founded in 2014 that operates a cloud-based platform serving U.S. healthcare providers and practice administrators. The company is structured around two integrated pillars: (1) Medical Licensing Solutions, a service-plus-software offering that manages state medical license applications and renewals across all 50 states, DEA and CDS registration, primary source verification, payer enrollment, and credentialing support; and (2) a Continuing Medical Education platform offering accredited certificate courses (ACLS, BLS, PALS, NRP, Opioid/Pain Management) plus 200+ specialty courses, supported by a freemium content acquisition model. Adjacent products include the medtigo Connect provider dashboard, a peer-reviewed medical journal platform, an interactive clinical case quiz library, a SEO-optimized drug and conditions reference database, mobile apps on iOS and Android, and an AI-Powered Medical Search feature layered across the platform.

The underlying technology is a web and mobile SaaS architecture with three operating sub-brands — medtigo Connect, medtigo Courses, and medtigo Journal — that funnel users from a freemium, content-led acquisition layer into paid licensing and CME services. The company holds SOC 2 Type 2 certification, targets both individual clinicians and healthcare organizations, and supplements U.S. delivery with an operations office in Pune, India. The revenue model is a hybrid of subscription/recurring (CME bundles, licensing service fees), professional services (credentialing, payer enrollment), and freemium content monetization, with custom quote-based pricing for enterprise licensing engagements and annual subscription bundles for course packages. The company is founder-led by Rick Kulkarni (Founder & CEO), has not disclosed any institutional funding, and operates with 11-50 employees.
