Connecticut Innovations Invests $150k In Notifyi

Connecticut Innovations announced Wednesday that it has committed $150,000 in financing to Notifyi LLC of New Haven through its Pre-Seed Fund.

Notifyi intends on using the funds to complete product development and to launch their cloud-based physician collaboration platform.

Notifyi, which meets all health care privacy and security standards, incorporates various messaging capabilities as well as physician and practice profiles.

Notifyi gives physicians the ability to securely send clinical messages to other physicians, while permitting recipients to chose when and how they are notified.  Notification options include email, text messages, pages and faxes.

“Modern healthcare delivery requires the involvement of multiple physicians in a variety of outpatient and inpatient settings,” said Senai Asefaw, president of co-founder of Notifyi, in a press release.  ”Notifyi’s physician collaboration tool enables a patient’s entire team of doctors to stay on the same page, leading to better coordinated, higher quality, and more cost-effective care.”

CI’s Pre-Seed Fund supports Gov. Malloy’s strategy to grow Connecticut’s technology economy by providing loans of up to $150,000 to Connecticut-based startups.  CI also provides mentors and helps coordinate access to various resources.

Douglas Roth, a CI investment associate, will be advising Notifyi.
