New Lantern
San Francisco, California, United States
New Lantern, Inc. is a San Francisco AI software company developing a cloud workspace for radiology. It brings worklists, medical-image viewing, dictation and reporting into one platform. Its Curie AI assistant helps prepare structured reports for radiologists to review and sign, while agentic worklist routing supports case assignment and workload management. The viewer supports mammography and PET imaging workflows, and its NL-Vox speech model supports radiology dictation. Founder and CEO Shiva Suri developed the platform after observing his mother’s fragmented radiology workflow. The company announced a completed USD19 million Series A on November 20, 2024, led by Benchmark, with Afore Capital, Neo, SV Angel and the Menlo-managed Anthology strategy among participants. Afore separately identifies its earlier pre-seed backing without a public amount or exact date. Position Ventures names the company in its own portfolio without identifying its round. New Lantern is relevant to artificial intelligence, medical imaging and healthcare software; workflow assistance is distinguished from autonomous medical diagnosis. This profile preserves its original Series A and personal-investor history.
