Cobalt

For digital health companies

Ship Product, Not Integrations.

Cobalt gives your team a unified API for EHR data. Go live in days, not months, and keep your engineers on the work that matters.

The EHR integration wall

Your product works in a demo. Your pilot customer loves it. Then someone asks: “How does this connect to our EHR?” Suddenly your best engineers aren’t building product. They’re:

Reverse-engineering EHR docs

Weeks spent figuring out which API surface does what. FHIR R4? Proprietary? healow? All three?

Waiting for access

API credentials take weeks or months. Write access requires a separate process from reads. Scheduling lives on a different system entirely.

Handling clinic-by-clinic edge cases

Same EHR, different configurations, different data structures, different breakpoints across every clinic.

Maintaining it forever

Integrations aren't a feature you ship once. They're infrastructure you maintain permanently.

The typical cost: $150K to $300K in engineering time, 6 to 10 months, and your product roadmap in ruins. And that’s just one EHR.

One API. Every EHR. Your engineers back on product.

Cobalt is a unified API for EHR data. We handle the complexity of each system so your team can focus on what makes your product valuable.

Scheduling

Read and write appointments across any connected clinic. No workarounds.

Patient demographics

Structured patient data, consistent format, every clinic.

Clinical data

Notes, encounters, conditions, vitals. The data your AI models need.

Billing

Claims, charges, insurance. Clean and queryable.

One API, one format

No HL7 parsing. No FHIR translation layers. No per-clinic custom code.

Live in 24 hours

Not 6 months. Not "we'll get back to you." Tomorrow.

How It Works

1

Connect

Sign up, get your API key, point it at your EHR environment. One setup.

2

Build

Use Cobalt's unified API to read and write EHR data. Clean REST endpoints, structured JSON responses, comprehensive docs.

3

Ship

Go live with your customers in days. Add new clinics without re-engineering anything.

✱ Claude Code
>How do I use Cobalt to schedule an appointment in eClinicalWorks?
POST to the appointments endpoint with patient MRN, provider, and date/time:
curl -X POST https://api.usecobalt.com/v1/appointments \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'client_id: ci_live_198908H...' \
-H 'client_secret: cs_live_9827hof...' \
-H 'access_token: 493JKLHIU987...' \
-d '{
"mrn": "123456789",
"provider": "claude_doe",
"date_time": "2025-03-14T10:00:00",
"type": "follow_up"
}'
Same call works for PracticeFusion, ModMed, or any system. Cobalt normalizes the interface regardless of the EHR.

Built for teams that need EHR data

AI Scribes & Documentation

Feed clinical encounters into your AI models. Pull patient context before visits. Write notes back to the chart.

Scheduling & Patient Access

Read availability, book appointments, manage waitlists. Without reverse-engineering healow.

Billing & RCM Automation

Access claims, charges, and insurance data. Automate the revenue cycle workflows your customers hate.

Clinical Decision Support

Pull conditions, vitals, medications, and lab results into your clinical AI. Structured, consistent, queryable.

The cost of building it yourself

Every month you spend on integrations is a month your competitor spends on product.

Your roadmap slips 2-3 quarters. Features promised for Q2 ship in Q4.

Your burn rate goes up without revenue to show for it. Integration engineering is expensive and invisible to customers.

Your sales team can't close. "Do you integrate with our EHR?" "We're working on it." Deal lost.

Your best engineers leave. Nobody took a startup job to parse HL7 for 18 months.
