Clementine Secures $2M to Scale its AI Hearing Activation Platform That Helps Clinics Convert More Patients

Clementine, an AI platform designed specifically for the hearing-care industry, has raised $2 million in a funding round led by European early-stage healthtech investor Healthy.Capital.

The company addresses one of audiology’s biggest challenges: most people with hearing loss never take action, and clinics miss 30–50% of inbound calls, resulting in lost patients and revenue.

Clementine’s AI Hearing Care Agent, Matthew, answers calls 24/7, educates patients, handles objections, books appointments, and ensures consistent follow-up, while remaining fully aligned with clinical workflows and escalation protocols.

Early results from live clinics show:

• Higher appointment booking rates
• Improved patient readiness and trust
• Reduced administrative burden for staff

“Clinics don’t need more leads; they need better conversations at the right moment,” said Vince van de Weijer, Founder & CEO. “Matthew, Our AI Hearing Care Agent, ensures no patient inquiry goes unanswered.”

The funding will support broader US rollout, additional integrations with clinic systems, and further development of AI-driven patient education and activation tools.
