About Nelly
We are a Tech Company and we believe healthcare should feel a lot less like paperwork… and a lot more like people. So we’re building the technology that lets medical practices run smoothly, simply, and without all the admin chaos that slows everyone down.
Our platform turns messy processes into smart, automated workflows, from patient journeys to billing to next-generation payments. Powered by AI, built for real humans, and designed to give medical teams the time and headspace they desperately need.
Why? Because Europe is facing a massive shortage of medical assistants. And if we don’t rethink how practices operate, the system won’t be able to keep up. We’re here to fix that, not with band-aids, but with real transformation.
We’re backed by €50M in Series B funding from world-class investors and are scaling fast to build Europe’s leading healthcare fintech. Our vision: empower over a million medical practices and make life better for millions of patients.
But here's the part we’re proudest of: we only work with nice people. It’s our number-one rule. No egos, no drama, no jerks. Just kind, curious, hardworking humans building something meaningful together.
If that sounds like your kind of place — welcome to Nelly.
