Abi

Abi Global Health is an Irish health technology company founded in 2016 by Kim-Fredrik Schneider and Dr Victor Vicens. Its mission is to make healthcare radically accessible for all through next-generation virtual care solutions.

Abi provides an AI-powered telemedicine platform that connects users to licensed doctors, nurses, and healthcare professionals across more than 30 countries. The platform is designed for speed and efficiency, enabling patients to access professional medical advice in less than 30 seconds through text, voice, or video consultations. Services also include prescription requests, mental health screening, and a digital health navigator.

The company operates on a modular, white-labelled model, allowing insurers, healthcare providers, and partners to embed Abi’s technology into their own platforms via API, SDK, or no-code options. This integration makes digital healthcare services accessible through the apps and websites people already use, improving engagement while lowering costs.

Abi’s artificial intelligence is a core component, with a dedicated AI Lab established in 2020. Proprietary machine learning technologies optimise triage, improve consultation quality, and make virtual care up to three times more cost-effective than traditional models.

The impact of Abi’s approach is measurable: 97% of users report they would use the service again, 81% of consultations require no further intervention, and insurers working with Abi have seen more than a 10% reduction in claims costs.

The company’s leadership team brings expertise from healthcare, technology, AI, and finance. Abi is committed to health equity, aligning with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal 3 to promote healthy lives and well-being for all ages, and it is a signatory of the World Economic Forum’s Zero Health Gaps Pledge.
