Coral raises $12.5M to automate healthcare’s back office.
The Story
The company focuses on integrating new technology with existing legacy systems like the fax machine.
Why It Matters
Coral's $12.5M raise for healthcare automation, specifically by working with fax machines, highlights a critical point for law firms. Your firm has its own "fax machines"—legacy processes and systems that resist easy AI integration. Ignoring these is not an option when EU AI Act enforcement is two years away. My experience shows that governed execution for AI starts with understanding these existing workflows before buying new tools.
What To Do About It
This week, map out your firm's most paper-heavy back-office processes. Identify where client data currently sits and how it moves through your systems. We can then assess how Microsoft 365 Copilot, which you likely already pay for, can begin to automate without sending client data off-premises.
