Flatiron, NY – Blooming Health, a health-tech startup headquartered in Flatiron, has successfully raised $26 million in Series A funding, reinforcing its commitment to improving access to essential services for seniors and vulnerable populations. This investment round was spearheaded by Insight Partners, with notable participation from existing investors including Afore Capital, Crossbeam Venture Partners, and Metrodora Ventures. With this new influx of capital, Blooming Health has increased its total funding to $32.5 million since its inception.
The company leverages an innovative AI-driven platform that enables a seamless assessment and referral process. Utilizing a non-human approach, users can access necessary services through a simple phone call or text message. This technology is particularly significant given that Blooming Health primarily serves individuals over the age of 65, a demographic that continues to grow in the United States.
Blooming Health’s service model has already made a substantial impact, having referred 1.5 million individuals across 22 states to more than 1,000 organizations, government agencies, and healthcare providers. The services that the AI platform connects individuals to include meal delivery, medical transportation, housing support, and social enrichment programs. These services aim to address various everyday challenges faced by seniors, assisting them in living independently while maintaining a high quality of life.
The revenue structure of Blooming Health is largely anchored in partnerships with government agencies and healthcare systems, further emphasizing the alignment with public health initiatives and the need for integrated social services in healthcare delivery. With the current new funding, the company aims to significantly scale its operations, aspiring to reach 10 million customers within the next year.
The health-tech sector has drawn considerable attention from investors, with 71% of venture capital funding in the first quarter of 2025 directed toward AI and machine learning. This trend reflects a growing interest in leveraging technology to solve pressing challenges in healthcare, particularly for aging populations. Insight Partners, a key player in this funding round, is expected to provide significant support to Blooming Health as it works toward automating social care solutions.
Nima Roohi, the CEO of Blooming Health, highlighted the urgent necessity of the company’s mission to ensure that no individual falls through the cracks when it comes to accessing essential services. This focus not only represents a corporate goal but also serves a broader societal need as the population of seniors continues to expand.
To further its mission, the company plans to strengthen and deepen its partnerships with state and local governments and healthcare systems, aiming to integrate social care into the healthcare delivery framework effectively. A key initiative in this effort includes the hosting of the annual Blooming Day 2025 conference, which will focus on innovative strategies for enhancing access to social services. The event is expected to feature keynotes and product launches that align with Blooming Health’s objectives.
Since its founding in 2021, Blooming Health has already secured $6.5 million through previous seed rounds, demonstrating a strong trajectory and backing from investors keen on transforming how social services are delivered. As the company continues to grow, its innovative approach and solid funding position place it in a favorable position to become a leading player in the field of health-tech, specifically catering to the needs of the aging population.
