For our July Member Spotlight, we spoke with Docology, a company working to support medical professionals by alleviating their administrative burdens.
Tell us about your company.
Docology exists to alleviate the administrative burden and time spent by specialty physicians and their teams preparing for clinic. By analyzing, summarizing, and generating health summaries for providers—as well as offering a chatbot that helps intake teams, nurses, and providers quickly locate patient information—our product reduces prep time by 83%, increases practice revenue by more than $35,000, and improves patient satisfaction and provider work-life balance.
The idea for Docology was formed—like many great companies—at the College World Series tents in 2024. Co-founders Sida Niu, M.D., and Tyler Hamik were talking about how much time Dr. Niu was spending pre-charting and preparing for clinic. Tyler’s mind immediately went to how AI and OCR tools could help simplify the process.
They brought in Andrew Rogers later that summer and set off to validate the problem, assemble a team, and build an MVP. In January 2025, Docology got to work. By April, we had one beta tester, growing to 10+ over the next 30 days. We are still early in our story and excited about the problems we’re working to solve.
Why is Nebraska an important location for your company?
All three co-founders grew up outside Nebraska and chose it as the place to start our families, careers—and now, our business. The community here is unlike anywhere else in the country. Between support for startups, access to capital, and the ability to partner with major healthcare and technology companies—all within one state—Nebraska offers a unique advantage. Financial support through programs like the Nebraska Department of Economic Development’s Prototype and Innovation Grant has been second to none.
How large is your company’s footprint?
Our customers, investors, and team members are located across the country—from California to North Carolina. We cover most of the United States.
We are a small team of five—four of us are based in Omaha, with one remote team member. We expect to grow to seven or eight employees by the end of the year.
What are some of the biggest challenges facing your industry, and how does your company help overcome them?
Administrative burden and time constraints are the biggest challenges facing healthcare today. Providers often spend more time reviewing charts than interacting with patients and have little time left for work-life balance, let alone rest or recovery. By using machine learning and OCR technology, our platform reduces or eliminates those administrative tasks, giving providers time back in their day: time to see more patients, be with their families, or even just eat lunch.
While we’re starting with urology, our platform is built to scale across multiple specialties, contributing to the efficiency and data integrity that power bioscience advancements.
What’s on the horizon for 2025–2026?
We’re planning a capital raise in Q1 2026 to expand our product into additional specialties and grow our team. In 2025, we’re focused on supporting urology and anesthesiology as our initial markets, hiring two to three new team members, and finalizing our go-to-market strategy.
