About
Basata is a Phoenix-based healthcare AI startup whose voice and document agents automate administrative workflows—referrals, intake, patient scheduling, and follow-up—that often still run on fax machines and phone calls 12. The system extracts patient details from incoming faxes, creates EHR charts, and books appointments via AI voice calls within minutes 1. Basata has served more than 500,000 patients to date, including 100,000 in the past month, and counts large specialty groups in cardiology, urology, gastroenterology, and ophthalmology among its customers 1. The $21M Series A announced May 8, 2026 was led by Basis Set Ventures with participation from Cowboy Ventures, PHX Ventures, Zenda Capital, and Victoria Treyger; total funding now stands at $24.5M 12.

What Founders Say

Chetan Patel, President, added: “It’s 2026, self-driving cars navigate cities, but patients still fight through hold music and fax machines to get care.” 1
