Speedoc is a Singapore-based digital health company founded in 2017 that delivers hospital-level care at home through its virtual hospital platform, including telehealth consultations, on-site doctor and nurse visits, virtual wards (H-Ward), remote monitoring, IV treatments, home nursing, and non-emergency ambulance hailing.[1][2][4][5] It serves patients with acute conditions (e.g., pneumonia, dengue, cellulitis), chronic illnesses (e.g., heart failure), women's/men's health, elderly care, and childhood vaccinations, primarily in Singapore and Malaysia across nine cities, with nearly 200,000 patients served to date.[1][2][3][4] Speedoc solves the problem of hospital overcrowding and inefficient care for non-critical cases by enabling community-based treatment, as demonstrated in its role in Singapore's COVID-19 response (25,000+ swabs, 18,000+ seafarer certifications, 4,000+ virtual ward discharges) and partnerships with 10+ hospitals, two major Malaysian insurers, and Singapore's Ministry of Health pilot for Mobile Inpatient Care@Home.[1][2][3] The company has raised $28M in pre-Series B (2023, led by Bertelsmann Investments, Shinhan Venture, with Vertex Ventures) plus prior $5M Series A and $20M noted in achievements, fueling expansion and collaborations.[1][2]
Speedoc was co-founded in 2017 by Dr. Shravan Verma (CEO) and Serene Cai after they met at a Singapore startup event, bonding over a mission to disrupt traditional healthcare by improving care quality and patient experience for those seeking emergency care but treatable at home.[1][3] Dr. Verma, a clinician, and Cai, a business leader, targeted underserved patients with complex needs traditionally requiring hospitalization, launching with mobile home care services amid rising demand for convenient health solutions.[3] Early traction came via COVID-19 response efforts, including swabs for foreign worker dorms and housebound patients, virtual wards, and seafarer support, which built credibility and led to government partnerships like the Ministry of Health's two-year Mobile Inpatient Care@Home pilot.[1][3] By 2025, under Cai's leadership of a 200-person team across three countries, Speedoc had delivered services to ~10,000 babies and expanded features like app-based ambulance booking.[2][3]
Speedoc rides the Asia-Pacific digital health boom, projected to hit $100B by 2025 (from $37B in 2020), driven by consumer-centric ecosystems favoring virtual care to optimize hospital utilization for life-threatening cases.[1] Its timing aligns with post-COVID shifts toward home-based models, reducing ED overload and enabling efficient clinician allocation, as seen in Singapore's healthcare transformation and regional peers like MiyaHealth.[1][3] Market forces like aging populations, chronic disease prevalence, and insurer/hospital collaborations favor Speedoc, influencing the ecosystem by pioneering virtual wards and AI integration, spotlighted at events like Echelon Singapore 2025.[1][2] This positions Singapore as a digital health hub, with Speedoc's model scalable across Southeast Asia.
Speedoc is poised for aggressive regional expansion using its $28M+ funding to deepen public-private partnerships and roll out H-Ward in more markets, potentially entering new countries beyond Singapore/Malaysia.[1][2] Trends like AI-driven monitoring, telemedicine growth, and virtual hospital mandates will accelerate its momentum, especially as abuse concerns push for robust, clinician-led platforms.[2][4] Its influence may evolve from COVID responder to ecosystem shaper, setting standards for home care efficiency—building on its virtual clinic origins to redefine accessible, high-acuity health delivery.[1][3][5]
Speedoc has raised $28.0M in total across 1 funding round.
