Asteroid AI

Asteroid AI is a productivity tool. Asteroid is a HIPAA compliant platform that uses browser and desktop agents to connect with EHRs, payer portals, registries and legacy apps lacking APIs, with ready-made workflows for intake, eligibility, scheduling and credentialing.

Asteroid is a HIPAA compliant integration platform aimed at the parts of healthcare IT that never shipped a usable API. EHRs, payer portals, government registries and desktop applications are reached through agents that log in the way staff would, then read or write data inside the system. From the caller's side, the portal behaves like an API: a request goes in and structured data comes back. The target buyer is a healthcare company or operations team that has automation stalling at the last step, where a person has to open a browser or a desktop app and key information in. The homepage frames the alternatives as building each connection with engineers, which it describes as a project that can run for months, or hiring staff to move data between screens. Asteroid positions itself as the layer that absorbs that work, including the upkeep when portals change without warning. In practice, the platform offers a library of ready-made workflows grouped by job: referral intake from phone calls, EHR extraction and write-back, referral-to-appointment scheduling, eligibility and benefits checks across payer portals, insurance member enrollment, and credentialing and verification against registries, state boards and DEA data. The site cites more than 100 healthcare portals already automated, and customers can build their own workflows or ask the company to build them. Reach covers browser, desktop and Citrix environments, plus hidden APIs where they exist. A customer story describes one product team member building and maintaining every workflow with the in-product assistant, Astro. Among alternatives, Asteroid sits between traditional interface engines and generic robotic process automation or general browser-agent tools. Its pitch is healthcare specificity: pre-built portal coverage, compliance posture, and maintenance included, rather than a blank toolkit. Customers named on the site include Thyme Care, Vitable Health and ClassPass, and the company lists Y Combinator, OpenAI and Hugging Face among its backers. Teams outside healthcare or with clean, documented APIs will find less reason to adopt it, while those stuck with legacy portals get a single entry point and workflow templates to start from.
